Some sort of bug attacked my dog. On his leg, and proceeded to cause him constant itchiness for the past two days. He was literally self-mutilating his leg in attempt to stop the itch (at least that's what I thought was going on). I'd heard of E Collars (Elizabethan collar), but never used one, so to PetsMart we go. The collars are named from the ruffs worn in Elizabethan times. I put the collar on Oliver and he sits, motionless, and clueless. He turns into a stone statue and will not move to save his life. It is humorous and prevents him from biting himself, so I consider it a success. The only thing to complete the scene is a goblet to drink from, filled with fresh spring water. After a sip he would be all, "Yes, I may be wearing this dreadful collar; yes, I may look ridiculous - but let's do it right, shall we?"
