What are the best ways to introduce a large cone for a dog recovering from surgery or injury?

When introducing a large cone to a dog recovering from surgery or injury, it is best to do so gradually and with positive reinforcement. Start by allowing the dog to sniff and investigate the cone before gently placing it around their neck. Use treats and praise to help the dog associate the cone with positive experiences. Monitor the dog closely to ensure they are comfortable and adjust the fit of the cone as needed.
