Dog Diapers

When a Dog Needs Diapers

A female in season, an older dog with incontinence, a dog recovering from surgery, and travel where accidents are not an option. Puppies in toilet training do not need them, and using them at that stage slows the training down.

Disposable or Washable

Disposable diapers

From around $22 for a ten pack to around $42 for larger sizes. The right answer for travel, for a short season and for anything infectious. The cost adds up across a full three week season.

Washable diapers

Better value for anything ongoing and far less waste. Buy at least three so one is on the dog, one in the wash and one ready.

Male dogs

The abdominal band diaper at around $23 is the male specific option. It wraps the middle rather than covering everything, which is more comfortable and does the job for marking. Our belly band collection has the full range.

Females in season

Absorbent menstrual pants at around $38, with a tail hole positioned at the base of the tail rather than above it.

Fit and Skin Care

Measure the waist rather than trusting weight ranges on the packet. Change on a schedule, not when you notice, and let the skin dry between changes. Urine held against skin causes irritation then infection quickly, particularly in a bitch in season.

A Note on Seasons

A diaper manages mess. It does not prevent a mating. Separation is the only reliable method.

Members keep both types on hand, disposables for the heavy first days of a season and washables for the rest.
