Highly recommend!!
These are the best! We have two King Charles Cavaliers, and placing their treats in the shield makes it so easy and effortless to put on. One of our dogs had an obstruction from acorns back in 2022—thankfully, she’s learned her lesson—but our other one still loves to try and sneak an acorn off the ground. This completely takes away the worry and lets us enjoy our walks this time of year. Highly recommend! Fast shipping, too.

So far so good
So far so good! This was recommended to me by our vet to help my dog stop scavenging because of SARDS, but it also helps protect her eyes since the hood will hit whatever brush before it can get to her eye. I like that it’s easily washable with soap and water and dries quickly.

It works!
Great quality! It will keep your dog safe by not allowing them to eat things they’re not supposed to or get foxtails in their nose/mouth/ears.

Terrible customer service
Terrible customer service. I bought a $70 hood about a week ago. The cord broke and I asked for an exchange. David Ramirez from the company sent me a YouTube video about how to re-cord the product myself. Ridiculous

Hi Rae, we’re sorry to hear you feel this way. We do our best to reduce the stress on our customers. In our experience, most customers don't want the hassle of packing the Field Guard, purchasing return shipping, and waiting for us to repair/replace the cord. This is why when you reached out about the cord, we immediately offered to send you extra replacement cords free of charge and shipped them the same day. The Field Guard itself was undamaged, so a quick cord replacement (as shown in the video we sent) would have restored it to full use within minutes.
After you expressed frustration about going through the trouble of putting back the cord yourself, we also offered to have you send the hood back to us so we could re-thread the cord for you at no cost. You expressed urgency, so our goal was to provide the fastest solution so your dog could keep using the Field Guard without waiting for a full return process.
We stand behind our products and always aim to resolve issues promptly and fairly for our customers. You should be receiving the cord shortly, but if you'd prefer to send us the Field Guard, we are happy to replace the cord.
Very high quality foxtail guard
Very high quality foxtail guard. Website easy to navigate. Clear instructions on sizing, which was totally accurate. Order processed fast, arrived in practically no time. Company very responsive to emails. I had signed up for discount on first order, but never got the code for the discount. I emailed company on weekend and received response within a half an hour, thanking me for my interest and providing me with a code for the discount! Highly recommend!

Love this product for my furry best friend
Such a great product. After an emergency foxtail experience at the vet I have been so paranoid walking my dog. I was skeptical how he would take to the product but he took to it quickly and is unbothered. A must for hiking/ California summers!

Best purchase ever!!
One of the best purchases I've ever made!! I have a Boston that snarks up anything he can get close to!! Ending up in emergency already once $$$$. Now our walks are so much more fun!! No anxiety on my end and he still can sniffari with his dog siblings!! He doesn't even seem to notice he's wearing it. Still able to drink with no problems!!! Such a relief!!

Deteriorating quality and cheap
We have purchased Outfox field guard for our 3 dogs previously and they were good. This time around when I purchased them they smelled like pthalates (for those who don't remember what pthalates are-they smell like old shower curtains and are toxic to humans and animals) . The elastic band that goes around the neck is also too short preventing it from being opened completely for ease on/ off. Will be looking for other alternates since they have become cheap with their product.

Easy to order and arrived quickly
Easy to order and arrived quickly. The quality of the product is excellent and is worth its weight in gold. We never have to worry about our dogs accidentally getting a foxtail burr in their nose, eyes, or ears. It was easy to train them to accept the hoods and they were so happy to be able to sniff to their heart's content without us yelling, "No! Stay out of the foxtails!!".

Fixed discount issue immediately.
I never received an email code for 10% off. I mentioned it on the order and they refunded me the 10% after the fact and advised me in an email. Thats good customer service. Hood works well on my dog too..

Pricing
After purchasing an XXS field guard mask from Outfoxfordogs.com for $65, I discovered that a local pet store in Petaluma, Cal. had the same Outfox mask for sale for $50. I was pretty dismayed about this, but was very happy that the company refunded the difference to me after I complained. This was excellent customer service, and I expect they'll be resolving their pricing issues with local retailers who carry their products. Their masks are excellent, and a great way to protect dogs from foxtails (as well as from picking up undesirable things to eat...).

Hi Sarah, we responded to you via email. We are following up with Rivertown on their pricing as it should not be below the online price. We have refunded your card. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience created and hope you will consider amending your review.
A lifesaver for my dog
Good customer service and the outfox literally saved my dogs life. He has discovered how tasty death cap mushrooms are and spent 6 days in ICU. Very nearly died. Now he wears the outfox outside to keep him from eating poisonous mushrooms etc

Very impressed with quality
Very impressed with quality and materials. Dogs were really good when putting the field guards on. Very light and lots of room around their heads. Fast delivery.
