Will this cone prevent a dog from reaching his tail, hind end and front paws?

Hi, it depends on how flexible and determined your dog is. Make sure you get the correct size too.

I would say it depends on how long legged your dog is. Mine is a cocker spaniel so her tail is snubbed. And I would think as long as you didn't fold it back they shouldn't be able to reach those areas, but it depends on how irritated the dog might be. Hope this helps!

I don't think so but it would depend on the size of the dog. The collar seems to work best for keeping the dog away from stitches on back legs and abdomens. I would be afraid a front paw could reach over the collar and scratch the eye. Sorry not to be able to offer encouragement because I know the big cones can be a misery for both dog and the caretaker.

As long as the nodes make contact with skin, yes. If dog doesn't react, try a higher setting. Dogs will usually drop their head or yelp when it becomes uncomfortable.

Yes, it completely covers the area the dog might try to "jump" through. It makes a very effective barrier. However, be warned - that any determined dog, small or large is going to be able to move it around - it's attached with bungy cords - probably need steel straps to keep a large dog from completely coming through if the dog is really determined. :-)

Hello, this is designed to help prevent the dog from fully bending to reach their backend. Unfortunately, we can not guarantee that this will fully prevent your dog from reaching around.

Not sure, just know that it did not keep our dog from reaching his back hip.

I think it would make it more difficult, but I also think he/she might still be able to lick the front paw area. You would probably be better off with an Elizabethan collar which extends out below the chin.

Quite unlikely. Our dog has a long nose and reachimg her rear with the collar.on would be oit of the question.

just like the description states, your safe bet is to go larger in size. My pooch is small with long limbs. Getting one size bigger helped but if left alone for extended period, he would of got to his front paw. It definitely doesn't have the coverage of a cone but it helps deter.

The cone is about an inch in diameter. It can be easily pulled off if it's in the way.

It will reduce the ability for any animal to cause injury. Because it is a thick fabric material a dogs claw may be able to "Rub" through the fabric is scratching hard enough, where as plastic collars will be more resistant to that. for Hind leg scratching to the face I would not recommended for front paws Yes I would...Good luck

Hi Angela. As we live in NY I was not familiar with the CA foxtails but just googled it. I would guess that Pawz could help a bit to protect the dogs against them, but in looking at the Foxtails I would think it could still penetrate if the dog stepped on it just right.

It would work fine if the dog is going to stay put. But if the dog is leaping about, the claws might rupture the membrane. It's designed to be walked on, then the dog lays down and goes to sleep. Four paws with claws leaping about would probably cause an early failure

You could help a little but not too much. The straps are designed to pull back on a dog that's lunging forward. If you pull forward/upward, the front strap becomes useless and the bottom strap will dig into the dog's armpits. If it is just a little weight/pressure it will be ok. But too much force and that bottom strap will be very uncomfortable for the dog, plus the whole harness could slip off.

The cone is pretty flexible. It gives when it hits something unlike the plastic collars. But, it would depend on how wide your doggie door is.

Mine has managed to escape out of it once when I first put it on him, think I may have had it a little loose. But I have also seen it stop him literally in mid air the next time he was spooked. Just depends on how tight you have it on him. The velcro is super strong.

No, not at all. I had the same issue with my foster cat. The cone will prevent your cat from licking/grooming his body but he will still be able to rub up against things and irritate his eye.
