Andover, MA (September 12, 2017) – If you have a pet, you know how hard it is to keep animals from chewing at their stitches following a surgical procedure. As a result, many animals are outfitted with that notorious cone of shame to help protect them.
Thanks to recent innovation from Arrowhead Animal Health, that inverted cone may now be kicking the bucket with Arrowhead's innovative alternative, No-Chew.
The No-Chew cohesive tape provides improved comfort, recovery, and protection of pets with an innovative non-chewable formula similarly found in human health and wellness products that are backed by human food-grade chemistry to ensure a safe product for all animals. The unmatched odor and taste repellent engineered to prevent animals from unraveling tapes on their first attempt.
“We’ve all witnessed a pet’s frustration with receiving the cone of shame and the feeling of guilt we get for simply trying the keep them safe. While it’s a universal method used to prevent infection, our goal here is to end the anxiety it gives our animals by changing the way we protect them,” stated Jonathan McEuen, Vice President of Business Development at Arrowhead Animal Health.
For pet owners dreading this uncomfortable ritual, Arrowhead has stepped in to alleviate these tensions by offering an easily and readily available option that works to pull pets and pet owners closer together rather than further away.
Arrowhead Animal Health’s products are 100% made in the USA, and range from vet wraps to adhesive stretch tapes that are constructed to meet the needs of smaller pets like cats and dogs to larger animals like horses and cows.
How to Use Arrowhead Animal Health’s No-Chew
When using the No-Chew vet wraps for the first time, observe the animal for any signs of skin sensitivity, which are possible but rarely occur. If applying to bare skin or shaved regions, please first use a layer of gauze or Arrow-VetTM cohesive tape to cover the skin before using the No-Chew wrap. If applying directly to the skin, we recommend inspecting the area of application after first six to twelve hours. If you see any sensitivity, such as redness or swelling, please discontinue use.
