Throat Guard

$ 11.95

Most of the time a coyote attacks a smaller dog by surprise and grabs the smaller dog from the back of the neck. The CoyoteVest is designed to protect against this scenario and makes it very unlikely that your dog will be instantly killed or captured. But if your dog is submissive, once they understand there is a conflict, they might just roll over and lay on their back. This can also happen when a submissive dog is attacked by a larger domestic dog -- the smaller dog submits by laying on its back. If this happens the attacker will usually go for the exposed throat and attempt to deliver a fatal injury as quickly as possible.

If you are concerned about this scenario we offer the CoyoteVest Throat Guard to help protect your dogs throat. You put the Throat Guard on before the CoyoteVest and it adds another row of spikes to the bottom of your dogs neck. The extra spikes do not affect the comfort of the vest and they give you extra security knowing that it will be very difficult for an attacker to bite your dog in the throat.

The Throat Guard is very comfortable for your dog to wear and is adjustable to get a perfect snug fit. The Throat Guard is made from a sturdy nylon strap with a plastic snap buckle and removable hard plastic spikes that are chrome-plated,  lightweight, and waterproof. It comes with enough spikes to cover the lower portion of the neck and if necessary you can simply take one or two of the spikes off or change the spacing any way you like.

Recommend The Throat Guard

"Super easy to put on and am relieved my dog has protection both in the front and back of his neck. I was concerned he would be weighed down by vest, whiskers, coat and throat guard but they are lightweight and seem super comfortable as he's running around the backyard like he's not wearing them !!!"

— Jennifer T. (5/5)

Great product to protect your fur babies

Q&A

I'm planning to get the CoyoteVest and am wondering whether I should get the Throat Guard or the Everyday Spike Collar. Seems like it's worth getting the latter for extra protection, but am I missing something here?
It's very simple to snap the throat guard on before you put on the CoyoteVest and then the lower part of the throat is protected with some spikes -- so the advantage is simplicity. The Everyday Spiked collar can be put on after the CoyoteVest and it adds another row of spikes to the top and the bottom, plus it can be worn alone without the vest -- so not quite as simple but the advantage is that it can be used in more ways.
Can this be used with the SpikeVest?
Yes - the throat guard can be used with the SpikeVest.
My little dog#s neck measures 12 inches - should I buy small or medium?
The small throat guard would probably be correct, but if you get the medium you can always make it shorter by simply removing spikes. Please keep in mind the throat guard is designed to be used with a CoyoteVest. If you want throat protection without a vest, get the everyday spiked collar instead.
