Features & Benefits
The BiteNot™ protective cervical collar is a trusted alternative to traditional e-collars, offering body-only coverage that allows pets to heal without the bulk and stress of a cone. Designed for both dogs and cats, this flexible neck brace limits the ability to turn or bend the neck, effectively preventing access to most surgical sites, wounds, or irritated areas on the torso and back.
Unlike plastic cones, the BiteNot™ collar allows full peripheral vision, making it a comfortable and less stressful option for pets, especially during long-term recovery. Its low-profile design makes it ideal for crate use, home recovery, or active pets who dislike standard e-collars. The included stabilization strap fits behind the front legs to keep the collar securely in place, adding an extra layer of support and fit customization.
Veterinarians rely on the BiteNot™ collar when managing post-surgical healing, hot spots, and other conditions where head mobility needs to be limited without restricting daily movement.

How To
- Choose the correct size based on your pet’s neck length and girth.
- Wrap the collar snugly around the pet’s neck, ensuring it’s firm enough to limit neck movement but not too tight to restrict breathing.
- Secure the Velcro® closure to hold the collar in place.
- Attach the stabilization strap by looping it behind the pet’s front legs and fastening it to both sides of the collar. This helps keep the collar from shifting or slipping.
- Check the fit regularly to ensure comfort and effectiveness, especially during extended wear.
