In January 2009, Dr. Paul O. Williams DVM, a veterinarian of over 40 years — along with his wife Tonua — realized that E-Collars for dogs (also known as “The Dog Cone of Shame”) were not supporting their pup Hannah’s surgery recovery. So they took matters into their own hands and came up with a compassionate solution. Read the entire story.

E-Collars for dogs (dog Elizabethan collars) started out as a large plastic dog cone that goes over the neck to keep your dog away from the surgical area, skin issue, etc. Later came the soft e-collar, but it isn’t much better. Unfortunately, both collars prevent dogs from doing normal activities. With the awkward cone around their heads, dogs usually don’t eat, they don’t drink, and they certainly can’t rest or sleep very easily. In contrast, Surgi Snuggly is a soft, stretchy and comforting body wrap that doesn’t restrict the dog’s movement or normal activities. Instead, it allows your dog to go about his/her daily routines, including eating, sleeping, going to potty and of course, snuggling! See How It Works.

The multi-purpose Surgi Snuggly is being hailed as a wonderful solution to ease treatment and recovery of all kinds of conditions, including: • Post surgery care • Dog bite wound care and other wound care • Hotspots and other skin ailments • Incontinence (it comfortably holds dog pee pads and diapers in place) • Senior dog ailments • Anxiety behavior in your dog Visit our How It Works page for more information.
