Wow, just found these and my dog needs them. She is aging and can't hold her pee. I want to buy this but am curious about when she goes #2. Is there a hole for that or does that stay in the diaper too? Sorry for the gross question, but trying to figure this out. Wow, just found these and my dog needs them.

when she goes outside you take the diaper off. theres only a hole for the tail. i use sanitary pads inside and change them out.

I would not recommend allowing your dog to go #2 in a diaper. It's just like any other diaper and if you've changed a poopy diaper you can imagine what it would be like with fur involved. The pad is absorbing of liquids not solids. I'd remove and allow to go outside. We diaper our dog at night.

Hi. These are just like any other diaper in what happens in the diaper, stays in the diaper. My old girl has pooped in the night twice, and even though it was a mess, I'm glad she went in the diaper and not on the rug. I bought a second one so if she has an accident I have a backup while the first one's being cleaned. Hope that helps.

It won't stay in the diaper, Unfortunately. The hole that allows the tail to be free is too big and it'll come out just the same. I found out the hard way.

I have a 23lb miniature poodle who was having urinary incontinence while on medication. I tried using the disposable doggie diapers, but she did not like them. The medium SnuggEase fit her perfectly, and she did not seem to mind wearing them. They stayed in place all night, and seemed like they would stay put even with daytime activity. During her illness she experienced a couple of episodes of diarrhea, which were also contained without leaking.

No swim diaper will hold pee in, even the disposable swimmies don't hold pee. This does however hold poop. I've experiencedit first hand :-) Definitely works!!

I haven't bit I've found that they work best for me when I fold them in a way where the back is wider. Then when I put it in the cover I fold down the front just a little. This way there is more coverage in the back for poo and a fold in the front to prevent pee from leaking at the top. Hope that helps.

I think they are. My dog wears her diapers for about 8 to 9 hours through the night and they are pretty saturated by morning. Have never experienced leakage. Make sure the tape strips are pretty snug but not enought to cause discomfort for your pet. Hope this info helps

My pug was 16lbs. She had a lot of muscle wasting in her rear end so that the adhesive strips would meet in the middle when I put it on. She fit into the medium size. I tried small diapers (not this brand) but they were too short for her and just fell off. I liked that these had padding all around the tail because if the diaper slips a little it will still catch the urine. My dog was incontinent so I also used sanitary pads in the diapers. I put 2 longways down the center of the diaper and then one sideways above and below the tail. That way I could just change the pads and reuse the diaper as long as it was clean and the adhesive strips were still sticky. Hope this helps. My pug was 16lbs.

Chris, where did you read that? It would be helpful to know so that I can make an educated decision on whether to keep buying these for my dog. Thanks.

These diapers are great for urine, possibly bowels too. They have a thin lining so you have to supplement the diaper with a pad to absorb the liquid. We have not used them for bowels yet, but I'm sure they would do ok. I get the mens Depend pads and stick them to the inside for pee problems for our 15 year old Boxer/Rot. They have the cupped shape and fit well. 2 or more diapers are good for interchanging during washing, especially if you are dealing with poo a lot. Good luck!

It helps to keep the pee on the pad and off the floor around it. You might have to put one side on at a time untill he gets use to using it with the sides on. How ever if your dog is marking you might want to try a male wrap VETS BEST I found works the best and is most comfortable for the dog. Also notice when he is going it sometimes it is seperation anxiety I have to put one on my dog if I leave for a short time he even seems to have anxiety when I go downstairs to do laundry other then that he could be marking if you have other pets or females he may be marking his territory if needed you can also use feminine panty shields inside the wrap in case of accident.--------Good Luck hope this helps

I bought liners for my dog's urinary incontinence, but the liquid is never contained to the liner because of her movement, etc., so I'm not sure the investment was worthwhile. As soon as I run out of liners I'll know for certain - but it seems that the absorption layer will be sufficient.

They don't work with dog poop.. There is a hole for the tale so therefore it won't trap the fecies. I understand why they don' t make them that way because u would have a mess with it all stuck to her butt!

Nope, I got my dog when she was 6 months and she was ok on her own until the dreaded chewing of cords etc. So I started crating her, she learned to crate surf so you may need to put a mat or something under the crate (I use a bath mat that has a a rubber no slip backside) it put an end to finding her in the crate in the middle of the room, LOL. THey also say for every month the dog is they can go an hour of holding it. But I wouldn't like to wait 12 hours every day to go pee so I am sure even though my dog can hold it she wouldn't like to either, but if you have no choice it comes down to what makes a safe environment for your pet and your house when you are not home.

I have a 4 lb petite yorkie....girls are different...they squat...how big is your dog...maybe u need to just get the bigger pads and lay 2 out on floor without the holder or do they sell bigger holders for male dogs for the spray factor sorry I can't help...good luck

This all really depends on the size of your dog and how often they pee. I was able to keep mine for 2 months before it completely died. Just pick up the poo and spray the lawn with water twice a day you can go to the dollar store and get a spray bottle to use. Its not a permanent solution because it is real grass but its easy to dispose. I've tried the artificial grass that you clean and my pup hated it. She loves this one though

These worked pretty well on my little maltese before she passed away. They are better for urine. I did have one accident where the poop kind of squeezed out and I had to clean her little butt up. The problem with the poop is it can cause a bit of a mess on their hair as it is confined in the diaper. But all in all the diapers helped with much less accidents on the floor or carpet that had to be clean up. Hope that helps. Claudia

If your dog has not tail, don't use a diaper with a tail hole. You're better off with a regular diaper. Use a normal Pampers or Huggies or whatever brand you want. Try some different sizes until you find a good fit. Also, attach the velcro tabs on the BACK of your dog, not on his tummy like you would a human. As for advice, that's all I can give. I don't have a dog. I tried this diaper on a cat. The hole was WAY too big.

I think the answer is a little subjective based on the amounts expelled. We bought these for our female when in heat. There were a couple of times that she managed to 'slip out of the hous' before we took it off and urinated in the diaper by accident. It held it just fine but it wasn't a lot of urine either. So it would probably do the job for you and having the two of them, allows you to wash one between the wears or if accidents occur.
