Managing Puppy Habits: How Healing Cones Can Help Break Bad Behaviors and Promote Health
Bringing home a new puppy is an exciting time, but it can also come with its fair share of challenges. One of the most common issues faced by puppy owners is dealing with bad behaviors. From chewing on furniture to excessive licking and scratching, these habits can be frustrating and detrimental to your puppy's health.
Fortunately, there is a simple solution that can help manage and break these bad behaviors: healing cones. Also known as Elizabethan collars or e-collars, healing cones are protective devices that fit around your puppy's neck, preventing them from reaching certain areas of their body or engaging in destructive behaviors.
How Our Soft Healing Cones Work
We proudly present the Million Dogs Soft Healing Cone - the ultimate gentle solution to transform your puppy's habits. Crafted from lightweight, flexible materials like plastic or foam, our healing cones are thoughtfully designed to fit comfortably around your puppy's neck, providing a secure and adjustable fit.
When your puppy engages in a bad behavior, such as biting their paws or chewing on household items, the healing cone serves as a physical deterrent. It blocks access to the targeted area, redirecting their attention and preventing them from continuing the behavior.

The Benefits of Using Healing Cones
Using healing cones to manage puppy habits offers several benefits:
- Preventing Self-Injury: Healing cones protect your puppy from self-inflicted harm caused by excessive licking, scratching, or biting.
- Promoting Healing: If your puppy has undergone surgery or has a wound that needs to heal, wearing a healing cone can prevent them from interfering with the healing process.
- Breaking Bad Habits: Healing cones act as a powerful tool to break bad behaviors, allowing your puppy to learn new, healthier habits.
- Reducing Stress: By preventing access to certain areas, healing cones can help reduce your puppy's stress levels, promoting a calmer and more relaxed environment.
Tips for Introducing and Using Healing Cones
Introducing a healing cone to your puppy may take some time for them to adjust. Here are some tips to make the process easier:
- Choose the right size healing cone that fits comfortably around your puppy's neck.
- Gradually introduce the cone to your puppy by letting them sniff and explore it before putting it on.
- Use positive reinforcement, such as treats and praise, to reward your puppy for wearing the cone.
- Monitor your puppy while they are wearing the cone to ensure they are not experiencing any discomfort or distress.
- Consult with your veterinarian for guidance on how long your puppy should wear the healing cone.
