The Comfy Cone Helps Your Pet Heal. In Comfort

The Comfy Cone is a soft, cone-shaped e-collar that helps your pets recover from surgeries, procedures, allergies and hot spots in comfort.

At All Four Paws, we’ve designed The Comfy Cone with innovative and practical features that will help your pet recover and heal post-procedure or during allergy flare-ups.

All Comfy Cones are made with foam-backed, padded nylon that is easy to clean and is water-resistant and repellent. The tight gauge of the nylon even prevents cats from getting their claws into the material! The Comfy Cone uses Velcro for tight closures, making it easy to get the cone on and off animals quickly. And the cone can be reversed inside and out, as well as front to back to support shoulder and upper back injuries.

Adjustable, Flexible and Safe

The Comfy Cone comes with three sizing strips that let you adjust the size of the cone for a secure fit. Along with the sizing strips, each cone comes with removable plastic stays that let you determine how structured the cone should be for your pet. Remove the stays for a more flexible cone and keep them in for firmer structure, like when a pet has had eye surgery. Once the stays are removed, the Comfy Cone can even be folded back for added freedom while eating and drinking or when checking wounds and irritations. All Comfy Cones have a reflective edge for safety and elastic loops at the neck to thread your pet’s collar through.

It’s perfect to use during recovery as well as during playtime at home or at the park.

Customers are mixed about the size of the pet supplies. Some mention that it is extremely secure and allows for perfect sizing, while others say that it was a little small for their 12 pounds multi-poo, and barely fits around their pug's neck.

Customers are mixed about the velcro closure of the pet supply. Some mention that it's a lot more secure than you'd think, has several velco strips to hold it closed, and can be adjusted quite a bit in size. The cone can velcr around the collar, but the vecro pieces are only large enough to fit. However, others say that the vlcro loses its effectiveness and then their dog just shakes it off, and that the strips are dog hair magnets. They also don't like that there aren't enough in-between Velcro strips for the size adjustment, and the sound the vulcro made when taking it off.

474 customers mention116 positive358 negative

Customers are not happy with the weight of the collar. They mention that it's a bit heavy for their 5.5-pound yorkie, and bulky. It's also quite thick and stiff, making it difficult to put the collar through the elastic bands.

"...The cone is on the heavier side, so if you have a smaller cat it might be too heavy for them to comfortably wear and get around...." Read more

"...We used the middle velcro section on a size L. It's much heavier than the plastic cone, so could be burdensome to walk around in, especially for..." Read more

"...It's heavier than the plastic cone -- I'd say about a pound vs. mere ounces -- so I don't know how your dog will respond long term if trying to keep..." Read more

It Eases The Pain... For Humans AND Dogs

It Eases The Pain... For Humans AND Dogs
We've had a Comfy Cone for probably around 8 years. I've used it for multiple dogs and injuries throughout those years. With my guy's recent eye injury, I decided to spring for a new cone. There has been a slight redesign with the addition of the stiff pieces that can be removed. We've left those in, as we find them to be helpful. The rest is still all the wonderful softness that they've always had. Unlike a plastic cone, your walls, furniture and legs won't be scarred. So if your dog follows too closely as you walk, no worries, your calf is unharmed. He can eat and sleep easily in it. The one thing he can't do is sniff the ground easily, as his nose can't quite get to the ground. This means it's fitted properly, but he gets annoyed. (No fault of the cone) It has kept him from re-injuring his eye because he can't scratch the area. We did add a 3/4" collar through the elastic loops to keep the cone from sliding off. My only complaint with this new cone is that the Velcro doesn't stick very well. It's staying shut, and the long strips stay shut just fine, but the alignment of the closure tab is a little tough and the hook and loop don't easily grab one another. This really is the only cone I would allow in my home and on my dog. It's a fabulous product and well worth the money. I would suggest to the company that they consider making a size large x-long. There is a medium x-long at 12" depth, but having a large neck size (15-18.5") and a 12" depth would be quite helpful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Probably great for most dogs -- but not mine
Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2020
This appears to be a fantastic product -- it's a very comfortable-appearing (wouldn't know for certain, since I'm not the one wearing it) yet rigid cone of significant width and depth. My 110-pound, 29-inch-high Lab/Rottweiler (trunk to foot) has a 23-inch neck and the XXL size fits perfectly at the smallest sizing (XL, for him, placed him at the edge of the size scale, so I played it safe). I'd say this would fit a Saint Bernard comfortably. It's also 14 inches deep when worn -- all the others we've seen are 10 or 12 inches. All of this should have been perfect for keeping my dog from licking the wound on his back foot. Unfortunately, he figured a way to do it (again), and I will probably return this product. Let me restate that this is not through fault of the cone -- it appears to be fantastic. My dog is just too smart for it (God knows how he managed to bend backward and still shove his foot into his mouth and inside the cone.

A few notes:

1. My dog freaked initially when this was placed on. He can't see side to side, and it's not even slightly transparent like the plastic "Cone of Shame." He got used to it after about an hour, however. Expect a lot of bumping into the edges of walls and doors. But at least it won't mark up or damage anything. The cone includes insertable plastic strips for increased rigidity; these can be removed individually if you need to only keep part of the item stiff and not the entire cone.

2. It has a nice reflective stripe around the outer edge of the cone, which probably prevents the dog from getting hit by a car if he/she's walking outside with you at night. It appears that the only color this product comes in is black (as is my dog), so that stripe is a very good thing for us.

3. It lays semi-flat on the floor when the dog tries to rest or sulk, unlike the plastic cones (which nearly broke when we put one on our dog). It's heavier than the plastic cone -- I'd say about a pound vs. mere ounces -- so I don't know how your dog will respond long term if trying to keep his/her head elevated if atanding on the floor or upright on a couch. Mine didn't seem to care.

4. The Velcro makes it easy to put on and take off; it's obviously meant for repeated use. Compare it to the plastic cones, which are a pain (figuratively and literally) to take off. The Comfy Cone also lacks the plastic edges/clips that dig into the dog's neck and irritate it further.

3. Initial placement of the cone can be challenge -- you have to loop the dog's collar through small elastic straps at the base of the cone, similar to wearing a belt on jeans. It will be tough if the collar has ornaments or a thick head, but it's manageable. I can't speak to the durability of the straps. But this belt-loop arrangement helps keep the cone in place (as long as your dog's collar fits well), and makes it easier to remove the cone -- all you do is release the dog collar. This worked well with my dog, as he has a collar with a snap release. If yours has the traditional pin-in-hole type, you may have a tough time.

6. Placing the collar around your dog's neck for the first few times requires practice as you learn to align the three outer Velcro squares and the inner Velcro strip (which runs the full depth of the cone). My dog was fairly cooperative, so it wasn't that bad. A more-hyper dog, and it will take two people. Removing the cone will be tough (and loud) initially, due to the tightness of the Velcro. Again, I can't speak to the pieces' overall durability.

7. Lastly, your pet will NOT be able to eat or drink with this item on -- it's simply too large. Maybe a Great Dane or a Saint Bernard can manage if they place their entire head over the food or water bowl like a tent, and you have an elevated bowl. Maybe a smaller size works better on other dogs. But for my dog, and this size, it's cone off, food and water, cone back on. Cleaning appears to be easy; it has a waterproof backing (both sides), so you should be able to merely wipe away whatever food or drool ends up in or on the cone (and with my dog, that was definitely the case when he slept).

Again, I think this product would be fantastic for most dogs. I didn't get to use it much (it lasted 1 day when we saw it simply didn't meet our need); hence the 4-star rating. It wasn't right for my dog, but most people should find this item to be a terrific alternative to the traditional plastic cone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blind dog approved
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2019
So my dog has a genetic disease that caused him to lose his sight gradually. He is now fully blind and is prone to corneal abrasions as he occasionally bumps into things then scratches his eye, making it worse! He needs eye drops to heal his corneal ulcers which irritate his eye, leading to more scratching and more money his mom has to pay to fix it! He is also a very special little dog so he hates the plastic cone that the vet gave us. As he will probably need to have the cone on for another month, I decided to look for a better alternative.

This cone looked the best so after struggling with the size chart I ordered this one. I didn’t want it to be too long as I wanted him to have a little more independence and comfort, while still protecting the eye. As you can see in the pics, it does not reach to his nose.

My dogs neck circumference was around 11 so I was leaning towards medium but decided to get small. Again as I wanted him to have more independence and be able to reach things. The cone is on the verge of being too tight but works for him. We have it on the loosest Velcro strap.

When it first came, it was very stiff but with regular use it has softened up. Immediately after we put it on him, he perked up and obviously felt more comfortable and free to sniff and roam around. He is able to sleep well with it on, as it has a little padding that makes it cushiony. He is also able to eat and drink and climb up and down steps with this but doesn’t usually because he is a drama queen. Also, as you can see in the pics, you are able to fold down the bottom of it so your dog can reach things better, such as food or water. However, be careful as sometimes when we have done this, if he shakes his whole body or his head, the cone may spin a little and the folded part will be in a different place, giving him access to scratch his eye. Depending on your needs this may not be an issue.

The cone is thick and made of durable material. I can tell it will hold up well. Like other reviewers have said, you attach it two ways. With the Velcro straps that connect the two sides of the cone. It also has loops that run all along the bottom side for you to thread in a collar, exactly like how a belt runs through the loops on jeans. You then have to either buckle that collar or make a knot if you are using a long piece of fabric or rope. We have a strip of some kind of fabric the vet gave us for the plastic cone so we use that instead of a collar. As he doesn’t try to take off the collar, we don’t usually use the fabric and just use the Velcro to secure it . Others have mentioned their dogs get scared of the velcro noise but mine does not and he is a very special and nervous little dog. He seems to love the noise as it means we are taking the cone off.

Yes, like others have said, the cone is thick and can trap body heat. I have felt my dogs head after he has had the cone on and it was actually pretty warm. I immediately took the cone off and let him cool down. However this has only happened a couple times and we are always monitoring him and checking to make sure that he is okay throughout the day. Also, the plastic cone has this same issue so keep that in mind. I am thinking of cutting a few slits in the sides of the cone to promote ventilation. If I do this, I will update with pics.

Overall I am pretty happy with this as it is easy to use and my little dog is much happier and more independent with it on. We are thinking of having him use this permanently but still have to decide on that. I would recommend this for your animals.
