VetMedWear® Hip & Thigh Protective Sleeves

VetMedWear® Hip & Thigh Protective Sleeves are an e-collar alternative that are interchangeable for both back legs. Designed for dogs after orthopaedic recoveries, such as patella luxation, TPLO and cruciate repair. Also helps to protect the area from hot spot irritation. These can be used along with a full bandage to protect it from getting dirty, which means less bandage changing is needed, or it could be used instead of the full bandage during the end of the healing process to keep it protected and allow airflow to promote healthy incision healing.

Reduces Stress

Can be used as an e-collar alternative, allowing pets to recover in comfort without restricting mobility or access to food & water bowls.

Secures Bandaging

During the first few days of recovery, use the sleeve to secure & protect bandaging, reducing post-operative complications.

Saves Time

Can be used instead of bandaging after the initial healing phase, saving time & money on re-bandaging. These sleeves can be applied in under 30 seconds.

Applications

Dermatological Problems

Protects the affected area and replaces bandaging for a stress-free™ recovery. Easy to remove for checkups or for medicating the area.
