My 11 month old has just begun her first estrus about a week ago. I ordered a special diaper for her which she now has learned how to rub it down and off; and then proceeds to chew it up!
Everything seemed to be going pretty well, but now, she's piddling everywhere indoors! I am assuming this is a normal 'marking' behavior, but just wanted to verify with more knowledgeable people, since it's been over 40 yrs since I've had an intact female and I don't remember having these issues.
Also wondered if anyone has had a problem with their dogs not keeping the diaper on? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanks all.....

:welcome2: to EBN!!! I used a special diaper cover that I could insert pads into... but my Willow figured out how to pull them off and proceeded to EAT the pad as well. We would make her sleep in her crate at night w/nothing on, and just keep an eye on her during the day w/her diaper on her. I agree w/Lynn you could use suspenders, I would just watch her the first day to see if she will keep them on.

Bella wore a Bwogue brand I got from chewy.com the Velcro was great on that brand and much cheaper than the ones I got at petsmart.
I just put a pad in it. She never got the diapers off. Actually I don’t even think she tried. lol
I must say the petsmart ones were much cuter though! Lol

They just needed a better Velcro strip. She didn’t try to get them off but the Velcro would stick to the bed (carpet or couch) and then come off of her.

[MENTION=16776]Hceril[/MENTION] Bella never tried to get the diaper off,because she thinks she is a human,and she probably like wearing "clothes" :yes:
