Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch! 

I’ve personally never tried this, but it certainly seems like a great alternative to the cone! Cones can be so uncomfortable and stressful for the dog, not to mention very impractical!

It looks like the sleeve allows the dog to move almost normally and is definitely less cumbersome. The reviews look good too! 

Every dog is different though, and your dog might not like having a sleeve on his body at first. Make sure you take things slowly, and encourage your dog with lots of treats!

Let us know if you do give it a try! Best of luck!
