Lick Sleeve® Rear Bilateral Suit

I bought the bilateral hind leg sleeve suit and individual hind leg sleeves for my late English pointer Star. She had multiple illnesses including all forms of hemangiosarcoma: cutaneous, subcutaneous, and viscerally. She kept biting open one of the tumors on her legs and I needed some way to keep her from bothering it. HSA is a cancer in the blood vessels and can travel anywhere, so that is where we were. I decided the sleeves might be the best solution to her. Unfortunately, her medical conditions were hampering with a decent quality of life. She had a mass in her heart, on the pancreas, plus everywhere else possible in and on her body, and I couldn’t help that. I asked the vet to let her go last Friday. They had been seeing her 2x a week for months. Now to the sleeves, I thought the quality was excellent and they washed well. I wrestled with trying to find a good way for the hind sleeves to convert to being on the front legs. It never was a good functionally, but with manipulation we made it work for her last couple of days (I believe I received the sleeves a few days before she passed.

The wrong product arrived. I've called multiple times. Nobody answers and the voicemail box is full. I've emailed with no response. I've tagged them in a facebook post and messaged them on facebook. No response on any platform. I'd be happy to adjust my rating if someone contacts me and resolves this. My dog's bilateral TPLO is August 4th (10 days from today, 6 business days). We live rurally so waiting a week for a response or buying something locally isn't a realistic option. The company reached out to me on Monday, July 27. Today (July 29) the correct product arrived!! Very pleased with the product- fits my dog nicely and seems high quality.

The inside of the leg sleeve has an unfinished seem. I feel this is a design flaw. That seem rubs against the incision and causes bleeding. In terms of use it is easy to get on and off. I just was not able to use as much due to design. If you look at value a high quality cone is very effective at preventing licking and is significantly lower cost. It also does not irritate the incision.
