    When my girl had a wound at the base of her tail, I put underwear on her backwards with the tail through the awkward dick hole

    We had to do the same thing with our last dog. The cone freaked him out too much. He would stand still afraid to move shaking in fear, and he never was able to adjust. Pants and even long sleeve shirts for the front legs were non issues for him.

      I’ll have to try this out if we need to, because our greyhound does the exact same thing when wearing a cone

      Put the cone on yourself and you’ll know instantly why dogs hate it. :-)

      We did the long sleeved thing four one of our collies and it worked great.

          Not OP, but my dog is potty trained, so when she was in a similar situation a couple years ago, I’d remove the pants when she asked to go outside to potty. Then I would stand by the door and watch her while she did her business to make sure she didn’t try biting at her stitches. When she was done, the pants went back on and I let her freely roam the house again. Pretty straightforward.

    Tried this with my dog but pants always fall off her butt.
