dog cones

They are called E-collars and yes you can get them at Pet Smart , if you phone your vet I'm sure they will also give your one and maybe you can get her eye checked out at the same time.

I will be calling him first thing in the morning. I wish I could duck tape her paws to her sides or something. Thank You

You might be able to manage a homemade temporary one - some posterboard and duct tape - any port in a storm, and duct tape works better on cardboard then furry paws anyway! (Yes, I know the "duct-taping of paws" part was just a comment made in frustration!)

Yep, duct tape works like Karen said......... (1 million and 1 uses lol)
If you do make one, be sure to duct tape the edges on each end of the
E-collar, it strengthens it.

thanks for that info. I am sending son to the store for poster board. I will do anything to help her right now. I can't keep giving her cookies to keep her mind some where else

I am getting desprate I gave her the benydryl the doc gave her for itching hoping to knock her out. the boys are driving to the store to get me to poster boards and another roll of duck tape. I gave my son the last piece of poster board I had in the closet last week for a school project. I that night I told myself to get more because they are always needing it. Now I am mad at myself. now she is dripping a little blood. she is going to make my dyed hair turn grey tonight. How am I suppose to sleep and keep an eye on her. I guess my husband and I are going to have to take shifts till we get her to the vet tomarrow. GGGGGrrrrrrrr I wish she understood what I am saying to her about hurting herself. she does not understand when I tell her no. my two other dogs are laying by her crate which is not normal the one usually stays away from her.

I'm not sure if this is a good suggestion so anybody correct me if I'm wrong but maybe you could put some aloe vera on it or after sun burn stuff to help soothe the itching. Do you know what the scratching is from?

If all you have is bristal board you can just make it into a cone shape duct tape it together and put it over her head. Just make sure it's right size for her neck so it doesn't come off.
