Product Description
The Original Creators of the First Onesie for Dogs - The Dog Onesie Working Wonders
Dog Recovery Suit for Post Surgery
Not only does the Shed Defender contain the shedding, but it is used to replace the e-collar medical cone. Veterinarians recommend our dog onesie for post surgery instead of the bulky uncomfortable medical cone. While wearing the onesie the dog cannot lick or scratch the surgery site, allowing the dog to heal comfortable why not being hindered the cone of shame.
Through the Paw it Forward program, a portion of all sales from Shed Defender products are donated to important animal organizations. Each month, a different adoption center, animal shelter, or rescue organization is chosen and featured.
Made by Dog Lovers For Dog Lovers
Shed Defender is a family-run and owned business that started because one man loved his dog. After not being able to take his pup anywhere because she shed too much, he decided to create a onesie for dogs that would help control shedding and foster a happier, healthier lifestyle for pets and their owners. He soon realized his product had a wide range of other benefits as well, including helping reduce anxiety and to replace medical cones after procedures.

The fit was surprisingly good. It is a bit loose in the belly area, but my boy does have a tuck up so I think this probably can’t be helped without custom coats for different breeds. The stretch is excellent, so it wasn’t too difficult to get on him. I have a similar coat made for outdoor use on my other dog, and his is less stretchy and thus much more difficult to get the back legs into. Once the coat was a little wet, it sagged a bit in the upper legs, but that didn’t affect the protection nor his comfort level.
He ran in it just like he does without a coat. It didn’t restrict his movement at all and it didn’t cause any discomfort. His coat was protected well from sticks and burrs, and the coat didn’t get snagged or damaged in any way.
Although I didn’t use it in the exact way intended, I did notice that when I took it off there was hair on the inside, which doesn’t happen with my other coat, so I believe it likely works well as a shed defender too.
I would recommend this coat.

Pros:
- the material is cool to the touch so we weren't concerned about overheating. although i wouldn't recommend leaving your dog on with this for extended periods of time in the heat
- it certainly reduces the amount of shedding, but all that hair is collected within the onesie, so you will need to periodically need to remove it from your dog and clean it. we removed the big chunks of hair then threw it in the washer/dryer.
Cons:
- for us we went by the weight description, but it seemed pretty tight...so we unhooked the rear legs and just tied them off. not sure if this is our fault or if the sizing doesnt match the weight. i might recommend going up size if your dog is within 3-4 lbs of a different sizing.
overall good, product....would recommend
OVERALL, well worth the buy and highly recommend! The shed control in the car is really a lifesaver.
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2022
OVERALL, well worth the buy and highly recommend! The shed control in the car is really a lifesaver.
When the replacement arrived just in the nick of time, my excitement was palpable. I needed this asap because the party was the next day. But right out of the packaging, it was clear this ‘new’ suit had seen better days - seams and strings hanging loose as if it already had a story to tell. Did I get a used one? Or was this one made by a child just learning how to sew? Despite its less-than-pristine condition, necessity trumped aesthetics, and I put it to use, hopeful it would be the fur-fighting hero I needed. And though my dog didn’t love it, it did its job for the most part.
The real disappointment set in post its first wash. My dog escaped out before we got to unzip and she ended up peeing in it. I knew this was already in poor shape and was nervous washing even though some reviews said it washed well. Though it went in alone and on gentle cycle, it nonetheless emerged with a hole, a new badge of its fragile existence. My video captures its initial state for anyone curious about what to expect straight out of the packaging.
While the idea behind this dog suit is nothing short of brilliant for those of us dealing with excessive shedding, the reality fell short. The quality and durability just don’t match up to the hefty price tag. I’m almost convinced I could craft something similar with a little effort and it would still fit much better than the large did. Again the sizing is so confusing. Still, I’m on the lookout for a worthy solution to the fur dilemma. I pray someone else starts to make something similar that is worth my money and praise.
For those considering this suit, proceed with cautious optimism. It’s a fantastic concept that, unfortunately, suffers in execution. Here’s hoping for a sturdier, more reliable version in the future!
