A dog suit is not a smart two or three-piece affair, but a more practical everyday suit. These come in different guises, but most typically recovery suits and snowsuits. Recovery suits are mostly used to protect wounds, stop your dog from ripping off a bandage, scratching an itchy skin patch, and help with incontinence. Snowsuits are a little more self-explanatory: They keep your dog warm and happy in the coldest of conditions. Here we have put together a selection of the best of both worlds to help you choose the right one for you.

Stop your dog licking its wounds with this stylish suit
Does your dog have a wound that it just can’t leave alone? If it does this suit will need help to make sure it heals properly. This dog recovery suit is made of high-elastic fabric consisting of 95% cotton and 5% Spandex. This means it can stretch, but without easily deforming, and offers extra comfort for your dog. The suit is available in three colors: There is a smart blue stripe design, a plain grey version or a grey camo version for something a bit more exciting.
Suitical Recovery Suit for Dogs
Lightweight stretch fabric dog suit offering plenty of protection
Dogs are self-groomers and like to look after themselves, but sometimes this is to their own detriment. As an example, if a dog is wearing a bandage it will probably try to take it off.

It is designed so that you can keep the suit on for as long as needed including taking your dog for a walk. It is available in a wide variety of sizes and suitable for small, medium, and large breeds.
