Valley Pets was founded in 2018 in the pioneer valley of western Massachusetts. The idea for our flagship product the BellyGuard was born out of necessity when our cavapoo Bailey was stuck in a plastic cone of shame for several weeks. Our Veterinarian Dr. Constant sent us home with a medicated cream, and a plastic cone to stop Bailey from licking at an irritating rash on her stomach.

 

Bailey was more irritated by the cone than by her rash. Normal activities, like eating, drinking, relaxing suddenly became impossible. After 18 months of engineering design, prototyping, and testing, and iterating, the BellyGuard was born.

Pawsitive Care Donation Program

A recovery cone can be a stressor to dogs that have been through plenty of trauma and discomfort. That is why we created the BellyGuard. As a leading provider of dog onesies specially designed for post-surgery recovery, we understand the importance of comfort and care during a pet’s healing journey.

 

Recognizing the vital role that animal shelters, humane societies, and similar organizations play in caring for dogs in need, we are proud to introduce our Pawsitive Care Donation Program. Through this initiative, we aim to support these compassionate institutions with our premium-quality BellyGuard dog onesies donations.

BellyGuard Suits Donated in 2024

  • Oh my this is incredible!!! Our frisky wild golden pup had neuter AND eye surgery! We needed to protect both surgical sites to be no touch zones for 10-14 days! The Belly Guard recovery suit is the easiest and most comfortable solution ever! I wish we would have had this with all the other dogs! It easily un snaps and pulls up under for potty breaks. Plus it kept all his shedding hair inside ! I ordered a 2nd one and washed suit #1 and put it in the dryer with a towel so it would dry and it came out perfectly! He actually did not mind wearing it either. (We also used a soft collar blow up to protect his eyes) I would highly recommend this surgical suit.

    - The best purchase ever!!!!

  • GENIUS! The snaps are THE selling point for this brand over other brands. My Dane was so sad in her cone, but now she’s happy as a clam— and my teen will let her back in his bed at night!
