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 PLUS is a synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and coated with an antibacterial agent (triclosan) to inhibit bacterial colonisation of the suture surface, helping reduce the risk of surgical site infection.
This USP 4-0 violet suture is supplied in a 70 cm length and is armed with a single-armed 17 mm Taper Point Plus needle with a 1/2 circle curvature, designed for smooth, atraumatic tissue penetration while maintaining excellent control during fine soft tissue closure.
VICRYL PLUS sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and predictable tensile strength retention during early wound healing. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional hospital and surgical environments.
