Collection details
SutureVet offers a comprehensive range of canine sutures covering the full breadth of dog surgery — from routine neutering and skin laceration repair to complex orthopaedic reconstruction, soft tissue oncology, and gastrointestinal procedures. Our canine suture selection is curated to meet the demands of both general practice and specialist referral surgery.
We stock absorbable sutures including polyglactin, poliglecaprone, and polydioxanone for internal tissue layers, alongside non-absorbable nylon, polypropylene, and polyester options for skin closure and orthopaedic applications. Gauges range from heavy 0 and 1 for large breed orthopaedic work down to fine 4-0 and 5-0 for delicate soft tissue procedures.
Needle configurations include taper point for visceral and muscle layers, reverse cutting for skin and tough connective tissue, and blunt options for friable tissue. All products are ISO-certified and trusted by veterinary surgeons and practices across the UK.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and engineered for rapid absorption and short-term tensile strength retention.
The braided construction provides excellent handling characteristics and reliable knot security, making it suitable for superficial soft tissue approximation where extended wound support is not required.
This USP 4-0 undyed variant measures 45 cm in length and is supplied with a 13 mm straight reverse cutting needle, designed for precise linear penetration through skin and delicate tissue with controlled access.
VICRYL RAPIDE is formulated to lose tensile strength more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, making it ideal for skin closure and minor surgical procedures.
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional surgical environments.
