Tail wag protector

I was asked to design this for a Thingverse user to help protect their dogs tail from being injured due to vigorous wagging. Therefore the dimensions are specific to a particular dog and of course dogs come in all shapes and sizes.

The protector is 120mm tall and has an external diameter of 30mm at the base tapering to 25mm towards the top.

You may need to scale accordingly and it should be able to be printed on most FDM printers without supports, however a raft may be needed for adhesion.

I have concerns that this may present a hazard to your pet. For example what if your pet eats it? Will the protector cause joint problems?

DO NOT USE THIS ON YOUR PET WITHOUT FIRST SEEKING VETERINARY ADVICE THAT IT IS SAFE TO DO SO.
