Would this prevent my Bulldog/Boxer from being able to scratch her face with her paws?

I would try a bigger size if you want to avoid scratches on the face. With the extra small, my cat can lick her paws (not a problem since her surgery was on the tummy). Your dog won't be able to scratch from the regular position, but she may be able to bend in a way to "poke/pet" her head with the back paws if you get a small size

Probably not. Although it's fairly stiff, it IS flexible, so I can see her bending it so that she could get to her face.

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

Yes, if the cat wasn't opposed to wearing it, as it will stay on because of the velcro. My cat has some issues with the nerves in her one of her hind legs, so she hisses at me when I want to put it on and then when I do, she either has some issues walking or she gets out of it.

My dog had it on her cheeks and she didn't lick it. As for the muzzle, given them some benadryl to help with the itching. It makes them sleepy too.

My dog has never been hurt by the paw plunger. In fact, she prefers this over a small tub. I think because they have fur on their paws, it protects them from the plastic opening.

Not sure. I would call the mfg and ask them or a veterinarian. You could try just a few pieces and see what happens. Maybe even out some peanut butter on it and see if that attracts them

Well, your dog will have a hard time getting to its paws. I have a smallish dog with short legs and while she did try to lick her paws, the collar would get in the way. I imagine that even if you had a big , strong dog, it would still be difficult since the collar (while soft) is not as flexible as it may look. The trick is making sure the collar is large enough to fit beyond the dogs nose.

It's certainly possible. The canvas (tan) is pretty thick and good quality. The vulnerability is in the black ventilation netting. I think my dog punctured a hole in the meeting and it was a free for all from there. If you cat is just a normal scratcher, it's probably fine. I don't even think the tan canvas would snag, but if the cat is trying to escape, it will probably get out.

It will keep them from peeing on certain spots on carpeting. I don't know about just scratching.

Yes. That shouldn't be a problem. My 13 lb female fits fine. She doesn't really use it for scratching but likes to lay in it.

We have 2 dogs and a cat. The clawguard has stopped all 3 of them from scratching our door. Definately give it a try!

I used the booties on my Boxer who was losing use of her hind legs . She like having them on on floors as they gave her stability. I did notice that if left on for several days that moisture developed inside. I would suggest removing them for a period of time each day to avoid making your dogs problems worse. I found that they were quite secure on my dog and required a bit of a tug to get on and to get off which I thought was a good thing. Also check your dogs diet. Good luck.

I don't think it's thick enough to prevent claw going thru. Maybe removing pillows from your bed when you get up so your cat is unable to claw it. Hope that helps

No. It comes with self - adhesive cushions you can apply to prevent scratching.

I think it would help. I use them on my 9.5 Greyhound to help her recover after competing, though she doesn't have an arthritis in her hocks yet. I have noticed that if she sleeps with the wraps on after a day of competing in agility, coursing, etc, she moves much better and ready to go for another day than if she doesn't

The fabric of this cover isn't waterproof, so no, I suspect it would not work. My dog licks his paws; he leaves a wet spot on the fabric, which doesn't go through the padding or the bottom layer, but I'm afraid anything liquid would go right through.

I'll try it on my dog this evening and see. It worked really well to keep our dog away from her midsection and bum after surgery, but I can't recall if she could itch her face or not. Will get back to you this evening.

yes and no, it should keep the beak from penetrating the skin or glove. but you will still feel the pressure from a potential bite. Hopefully this helps
