Has anyone used a 'Comfy Collar' instead of a Buster?

I have seen these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Comfy-Collar-Scratch-42-55cm-Large/dp/B003XLGX8G/ref=sr_1_2?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1310744651&sr=1-2

My dog is going to need it a lot and I was wondering if anyone has used one of these. It is to stop her licking her feet. Do you reckon it might work? She is in the largest Buster collar at the moment and I am sick of getting whacked in the back of the legs and having bruises. She is going to need this for a while so just checking out the alternatives.

We tried a comfy on the greyhound this morning to see, and she could reach her back foot and her back leg. Its going to have to be a buster for us when her splint comes off I'm praying it heals quickly: its going to be a nightmare!

edit: she just swung the offending leg forward (lying down)..but she's sort of cat-stretchy yoga greyhound. A dog with shorter legs to body height might not be able to reach. does your vet surgery carry them to try one?
