From the brand


While recovering from a medical procedure in 2017, our Cavapoo, Bailey, had a terrible experience with the plastic cone. With the help of a local veterinarian, we decided to create a better recovery experience. After months of testing, we designed and launched the BellyGuard Dog Recovery Onesie. Today, we are a small, family-owned business based in Western Massachusetts, dedicated to providing a comfortable recovery for dogs across the country.

Which size is right for my pup?
Measuring your pup’s length and chest circumference is the best way to gauge. So, measure away! We recommend using a fabric measuring tape if have one, which is easiest to get an accurate measurement.
Can my Dog go to the bathroom while wearing this?
Yes!
Our patented clip-up system is simple and easy to use. Just unbutton the bottom flap, roll up the onesie, and snap it in front on your pup’s chest.
Will it shrink if I dry it?
The cotton fabric has been pre-washed, resulting in little to no shrinkage during drying. To be safe, low temperature dry is recommended.

Customers say
Customers find the recovery suit comfortable, easy to put on and off, and appreciate that it’s better than a cone collar. The suit fits well, with one customer noting it’s loose through the body, and another mentioning it’s tight enough at the neck. They report it works well after spaying and helps incisions heal quickly. The snaps are secure in the back, and while some find it true to size, others note the sizing chart is inaccurate.

Perfect for post surgery
Dog loves it. Nice and stretchy and simple to snap out of way for potty breaks. Not tight or touching his incision after splenectomy and helps keep clean and protected from licking. Highly recommend. Buying a 2nd one so I can have a fresh one. It’d be great to reduce hair in car too!

Perfection!!
I researched long and hard to find a surgical suit for my GSD pup. This surgical suit is well made and is exactly what my pup needed! He just had a big abdominal surgery yesterday, a complex castration and a gastropexy. This is super soft and the fit is perfect for my 85 lb puppy. We bought the XXL. Neck is just a little tight, but we still highly recommend this. It can be tightened by moving up a row of snaps. Suggestion: (Three rows would be even better)This also provides a calming affect like a thundershirt does, but not as snug as those.The snaps are solid, and is easily rolled up for potty breaks. It has a center snap that snaps up at the chest area when suit is rolledor folded up toward the neck. Happy to say that the suit stayed dry, and that is a plus when you have a male dog!I think they should make one or two sizes bigger for other giant breeds in addition to the current sizes.

Does exactly what we need it to do!
We read all of the reviews. The most helpful reviewer suggested ordering two different varieties. She found the snaps on this one were much easier to work with than the other designs that use velcro closures. These snaps are pretty great. Size-wise, we sized up a little because his splenectomy incision is long and we didn’t want anything to irritate it. He’s a miniature poodle mix, 14.5 pounds, 11.5 inch neck, 17.5 inch chest, 17 inches from his neck to his tail, so we ordered the regular medium knowing it would be a little big. Good thing we went up in size because the neck opening is tight BUT has stretch so I used a cylinder to stretch out the neck which worked perfectly. The font leg holes are wide and helped with quickly getting it on and off. It was a little long but we only needed to cover his middle abdomen and used the dark metal snap meant to uncover their butts for bathroom breaks the whole time he wore the suit so it was never used as a onesie. He is supervised and hasn’t tried to lick his abdominal stitches through the suit. Not even at night when we sleep. This cotton material is soft and breathable – super preferable for wound healing and it is machine wash and dry. That is convenient! Some of the other brands were polyester and line dry only. We’re glad we got this. No need for a cone. Protects his incision. It’s comfy, versatile, and convenient. Highly recommend trying this one.

Comfy and does the job, good fit.
Edit: still great purchase but it’s day 7 and we’ve noticed it’s a tad short for him and it’s starting to irritate his scrotum area so we give him breaks from it and he seems happier. He does seem to lick his incision site but mainly because his scrotum is bothered I think. Keep this in mind for fit!Best fitting post surgical suit we could find for our male dogs body shape. He’s very long and lanky, not much fat on him, so sizing can be tricky. We got an XL and my only thought is that the neck is a bit snug but I’ve stretched it out and it’s starting to stretch with time. Using for post neuter surgery and it’s more comfortable for pup than the donut and cone, but he can still lick the fabric until it gets wet if we aren’t watching so if that’s the case we do pair with the donut. Our donut has a zippered cone attachment we can add if we need extra prevention but most of the time the ruff life suit is good enough as long as we’re keeping an eye on him from licking his incision. Overall, liked this much better than some of the others we tried mainly due to fit and that it covers the whole wound. When he needs to go pee or poop we just unbutton the pieces in the back and roll it up until he’s done, then we resnap it into place afterwards. Have washed it once and dried on medium heat, no noticeable shrinkage. Nice tshirt cotton material that’s breaths. Not too tight so pup is comfy but incision still has protection. Also super cute:) Would recommend!For references our pup is 11 months and weighs about 68-70lbs,Girth = 29/30”head= 20Neck =18-19Back waist = 24Length = 28Hope this helps some of you!

A must have for your pet for spay!
I love this product! I’m so glad I purchased this for my pet prior to her spay. She is a mini Goldendoodle, 26 pounds, and the medium was a perfect fit! This product is wonderful. It is easy to put it on, no Velcro—just button snaps that are easy! I just wish they had more variety in colors and that there was a stretchy hole (like the brand Vet Med Wear) for your pet to go pee. But overall this product is durable and perfect!

Worth the price, works as described
It is a great item- easy to get on and off maybe just a little small at the neck. It is a little thick, but that may be good for the dog getting to the wound. It fit my 7.2 pound Shih Tzu perfectly.

Quality item but didn’t fit my dog well
Unfortunately, the BellyGuard did not fit my dog well. I measured my dog prior to ordering and decided on an XL for my 60 pound Golden Retriever puppy. It was tight around her neck and loose around her back legs. My pup often got her back legs “stuck” in the suit when sleeping, even when we used the tighter set of snaps. When that happens it made it super tight on her neck! I did not have extra time to try different brands of surgical suits, so we kept the BellyGuard and it served its purpose well to protect the surgery site. I cut the cuff at two sites around the neck with hopes to fit better, but it did not. It is a quality item made with thick material and a nice “cuff” material around the neck and leg openings to be gentle. I like the item but it did not fit my dog well. Maybe my dog has a fat neck and skinny legs??

Perfect alternative to the cone. Keeps the wound dry even when my dog tries to lick it. XL was a perfect fit for a 12 months German Shepherd mix (28kg).
Amazon Customer –
This has been a lifesaver. Our lovely girl was not a fan of the cone of shame (giving us massive side eye). Popped this on and she was able to be herself, pottering about.The poppers are really sturdy and helpful. The ability of the popper at the front to connect the back is ideal for toileting. Very soft material. True to size when using the size guide.Cons: wish it came in other colours.

Både jag och min hund är mycket nöjd med produkten, trots att jag fick välja den lite större storleken. Även om den var alldeles för stor runt bröstmåttet, så satt den perfekt för övrigt, ingen risk att hon kunde komma åt operationssåret. Dessutom funkade jättebra att knäppa loss bakdelen när jag rastade henne. Jätte nöjd med produkten!
