The MPS® Head Cover is a soft, practical alternative to the traditional “cone of shame”, designed to protect your dog’s head and ears while allowing them to move comfortably and freely. Ideal for dogs recovering from aural haematomas, surgery, or other skin issues, this headcover helps to secure bandages and support healing without the discomfort or restriction of a plastic cone.
Key Benefits:
- Comfortable Alternative to Cones: Allows your dog to move around without bumping into furniture or obstructing their view.
- Protects Head & Ears: Perfect for covering and protecting wounds, stitches, or skin conditions affecting the ears or scalp.
- Supports Recovery: Helps prevent scratching, shaking, or rubbing that can reopen wounds or dislodge bandages.
-
Freedom of Movement: The flexible, snug fit allows for normal movement while keeping sensitive areas safely covered.
Ideal For:
- Aural haematomas (ear swelling due to fluid build-up)
- Post-surgical recovery (e.g., ear operations)
- Skin irritations or injuries on the head and ears
- Dogs who find traditional cones stressful or uncomfortable
Please Note:
1 single insert included - Inserts are sold separately.
Head Shaking & Ear Flapping
Head Shaking & Ear Flapping
Dogs can shake their heads frequently and flap their ears due to ear problems, such as infections, bacteria, or allergies, to reduce itching and irritation. As a result, blood vessels in the ear can be damaged, creating a collection of blood within the ear flap. This is called an aural hematoma. An untreated aural hematoma can cause permanent damage. Prevention is better than cure. If a dog is experiencing ear issues, cover and protect their ears from flapping, head shaking, and scratching with the MPS-Head Cover®!
Ear & Head Wound Care
Ear & Head Wound Care
Proper wound care and protection are essential to prevent infections and promote speedy recovery. The MPS-Head Cover® prevents the dog from scratching the wound, while also protecting the wound area from bacteria and dirt. In addition, the MPS-Head Cover® covers and protects ointments applied to the ears or head. You can also place your dog’s ears inside the specially designed pockets on the inside to prevent ointments from sticking to the fur.
Protection against Grass Seeds
Protection against Grass Seeds
Grass seeds, also known as awns or foxtails, are sharp bristles from certain types of grass. The grass seeds have a sharp tip that can stick to the fur or even burrow into the ears, eyes, or nostrils of your dog. When foxtails enter the ear canal, they can cause ear infections. The MPS-Head Cover® protects and covers the dog’s ears. Thanks to the adjustable closure straps, elastic cord, and snap buttons, the Head Cover® stays securely in place. This significantly reduces the chance of grass seeds burrowing into the dog’s ears.
Less Stress During Grooming
Less Stress During Grooming
Many dogs find the hairdryer unpleasant or even scary. The hot air around the head can feel uncomfortable, and most hairdryers make a lot of noise. The MPS-Head Cover® can be a useful tool to make the visit to the groomer more pleasant. The ears will no longer flap, and the dog will be less bothered by the noise and air pressure around its ears/head during drying.

Bought this to prevent my springer spaniel from getting any more grass seeds in his ears. He tolerates it fairly well, works much better than the snood I was using.
Brilliant seller and delivery would use you again without a second thought thanks MJ 😁
