Well in my initial post I said how she kept peeing in it. The packs of them here were almost 10 dollars. So I had only bought one single onesie, thinking it would be fine. But the rain here we could not walk her to go potty, because it was so wet and floody in the grassy areas. We let her go on the porch, we had some wee pads there. But we also have a doggi door we can't remove, we could have covered the door somehow but we didn't know we'd run into her problem of peeing IN the onesie.
But when she did it twice, and kept moving the towel we tied in the meantime while washing the onesie, we decided that it will just be a lot less hassle to get an e-collar. But not only is it a hassle that she pees in it, but she's also getting pee on HER which means it could be getting on the incision. It's essential to not let her lick the area, at all. So these little times where she'd get at it are bad and we want to avoid that happening again.
We just don't know about how long to keep her in the collar, though.
