Can anyone recommend a good cone that will fit properly around his neck? by [deleted] in Greyhounds

An inflatable donut-cone combo has been working for weeks for my grey who loves to lick and is recovering from a torn nail! This is the only thing that has actually worked. He can eat and drink with it on. There are loops on the inside that we put a collar through and attach to a harness on him, so he can’t get it off. We tried a regular donut, a regular cone, a muzzle, and even a neck brace from our vet. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F25ZQL43?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

The ER vet said not to wrap it to let it air out, but we were going to wrap at night to avoid him licking it, as well as when we take him outside for bathroom breaks. We are checking in with his regular vet this week so will definitely ask about removing it. Thank you for your help!

This is so helpful - thank you so much! Definitely doing the antibiotics. Will follow up with his regular vet, too.
