The product is a good product and certainly does what it’s supposed to do: protect the hind legs when injured. It is definitely recommended compared to plasters and bandages. The flaw: The flaw lies in the connection between the MPS TOP shirt and the MPS-HLS hind leg sleeves. They chose to use hooks for this connection. Unfortunately, this is a poor solution. After a few days, the hooks are either open or broken, and the eyes where the hooks should fasten are torn. Velcro would be a better option for this. Overall, I am still quite satisfied with the product, hence the 4 stars.

Product Description
MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves
The Hind Leg Sleeves by Medical Pet Shirt offer a great solution for dogs that have just had surgery, dogs that suffer from skin disease or dogs with sensitive skin. The sleeves help prevent licking, scratching or biting of the skin on your pet's rear legs. This helps speed up recovery of the skin. It also helps prevent new sore spots that may appear as a result of biting or scratching. One MPS-HLS set includes two separate hind leg sleeves that can be attached to each other using a strap that extends below your dog's tail. The sleeves can only be used in combination with MPS-TOP Shirt 4 in 1. This shirt has loops in the back that allows you to fasten the sleeves, making sure they stay in place. To protect your dog's, cat's or rabbit's torso, various Medical Pet Shirts are available. If your dog needs sleeves for their front legs, you can find those here: single front leg sleeve or double front leg sleeves.
Key features
- Protection of wounds and bandages on the hind legs
- Minimises injury to the skin due to scratching, licking or biting
- Promotes faster healing as medication cannot be licked off of the skin
- Washable at 30'C
Sizes

The MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves can be removed from the packaging and held up next to your dog in order to check whether they fit. For hygiene reasons, the MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves cannot be returned if they have come into contact with your dog. If we find that the returned sleeves are stained, worn, contain dog hair, smell or have been washed after use, we cannot return the product to you. In this event, it will be donated to a charity (local shelter). As we are often confronted with products that are returned in a less than new condition, we have to apply these rules for returning products.

Doubtful caseBy anka, Thursday 26 March 2026MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves - L
The goal we wanted to achieve has been 100% fulfilled. Our dog is much happier wearing the suit than with the cone. The only downside is the fastening (from book to shirt), but in our opinion this doesn’t outweigh the convenience. It takes a bit of effort and some swearing, but afterwards it’s a great suit.

NightmareBy Sylvia, Sunday 8 February 2026MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves - M
The loops are a nightmare to fasten to the corresponding shirt. No thought has gone into this at all. Your dog has been operated on and can hardly stand, and then you’re fiddling with those hooks and loops. In the end, I just put a romper on and fastened the leg part with safety pins.

Bad advertisingBy Hannah, Saturday 14 October 2023MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves - L
Bought thinking it was the all in one. Maybe I am dumb thinking this. Opened the parcel and got upset. I finally understand why the reviews are so bad on this item. I need to purchase the vest so I can use the leg sleeves. If I knew this, I would not have purchased.

Does the job, but...By Suzanne, Wednesday 21 July 2021MPS-HLS Hind Leg Sleeves - XXS
The back leg sleeves work very well to stop my dog from licking her wound. However, the shirt is needed to keep the leg sleeves on and we are in a heatwave. The dog is too hot with the shirt on, so it all has to come off and we go back to collars and vetwrapping. What would make huge improvements is to use a lighter colour material which doesn't absorb so much heat from the sun. Also, how about having a harness for the leg sleeves to attach to, so that the thick covering shirt is not required. It's a bit overkill to have to put the whole set on for a back leg wound, and expensive too!
