95% soft, breathable cotton. 5% spandex, for just a touch of stretch, and to hug your pup’s shape.

We recommend opting for the bigger. You don’t want your BellyGuard to be too snug on a healing incision or on irritated skin. Plus, two layers of snaps make for an adjustable, customizable fit.

Measuring your pup’s length and chest circumference is the best way to gauge which size BellyGuard will be best for them. So, measure away! We recommend using a fabric measuring tape if you have one, which is easiest to get an accurate measurement.

Yes!

The BellyGuard does not need to be removed for bathroom breaks and has an easy-to-use clip-up system that was designed with your pup’s comfort and ability to take care of business hassle-free in mind. Just unbutton the bottom flap, roll up the onesie, and snap it in front on your pup’s chest for an unencumbered bathroom visit. Just remember to unroll it and snap it back in place at your dog’s rear end when they’re finished.

But accidents can happen. We recommend purchasing twoBellyGuards, so you’ll always be prepared with a backup in case one needs to go in the wash.

Yes. Vets love it. The onesie is a deterrent for any dog to discourage licking or biting at sutures. In an ideal world—and in a great many situations—the BellyGuard offers just enough deterrence to keep your dog from getting at that pesky healing incision, but feels so comfortable, breathable, natural, and barely-there that they leave the suit alone. Your pup stays comfy, the incision stays gently covered. But as with any recovery product and curious pets, accidents can happen. We do recommend that the product be worn under adult supervision, especially at first.
