Title: Medical vest help.....
Post by: caroljayne on October 01, 2011, 08:19:06 AM
Hi everyone,
Bella is being spayed next week :(
I am looking for a vest ( I think they are called medical vests) but don't seem to be able to find anywhere selling them.
Do any of you know where I can get one from? Also does anyone have any experience of using one?
Thank you

Babies t'shirts are easier to find and much cheaper.

Yes I think I know the item you mean, my prevous Cockers had them to reduce swelling and protect them after Mammary strips...My two girls have just been spayed recently , they did not require and vest or plastic collar , they were both stitched and glued(I think) and aprt from watching that they dont over lick their wounds or get them scratched or dirty outside there should be no problem , if however you WANT to cover the wound then as previously said just opt for and old t shirt or similar which can be knotted to make a better fit.
