Safer Abdominal Surgery Recovery for Pets with Pet Pjs
For an abdominal surgery recovery, protecting the incision is critical to prevent contamination, reduce complications, and promote faster healing. Traditional E-collars limit licking, but they leave the surgical site exposed to environmental agents and accidental trauma. As a result, patients may face delayed recovery or even wound dehiscence
Protective Barrier
Pet Pjs recovery suits actively shield the abdominal area, blocking licking, biting, and scratching while still allowing airflow to the skin. This breathable protection creates an ideal healing environment and significantly lowers the risk of post-surgical infections and seromas. Moreover, it keeps patients clean and comfortable, even during extended recovery periods.
Large breed dogs such as Labradors, Dobermans, Boxers, and German Shepherds often require special attention after abdominal surgery due to their higher activity levels, strong musculature, and tendency to resume movement quickly.
Common reasons for abdominal surgery in these breeds include gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV), splenectomy, intestinal obstructions, tumor removal, and bladder stone extractions. Because these conditions involve delicate internal repairs, excessive stretching, jumping, or licking can compromise healing and increase the risk of complications. Pet Pjs recovery suits offer a secure, breathable, and comfortable way to protect the surgical site, limiting self-trauma while allowing these active patients to move safely during the recovery period.
Comfort and Compliance:
Because the suit is soft, lightweight, and washable, patients move freely and rest in any position without discomfort. This freedom of movement reduces stress, improves compliance, and allows caregivers to manage abdominal surgery recovery more effectively. In turn, pets remain more active and engaged, which supports physical and emotional well-being.
Versatility for Every Patient:
Veterinarians and technicians can easily adapt Pet Pjs to any patient size—from tiny toy breeds to large working dogs. Custom adjustments allow space for drains, enable partial coverage for wound checks, and integrate with absorbent pads when needed. This adaptability makes the suit suitable for both routine and complex surgical recoveries.
Evidence-Based Design:
Years of surgical experience shaped every aspect of Pet Pjs design. The suit minimizes the need for frequent bandage changes, maintains a hygienic barrier over the wound, and reduces handling stress. When used consistently, it can shorten recovery time and help return pets to normal activity faster
Improving Recovery Outcomes:
By combining protection, comfort, and flexibility, Pet Pjs help veterinary teams improve clinical outcomes and enhance client satisfaction. Owners appreciate seeing their pets recover with less anxiety and fewer complications, while professionals benefit from a reliable, easy-to-use tool that supports their treatment protocols.
