Diagnosis Heart Diesase please help!

[Forest Coffman]

Hello, my senior 11 year old Hercules has been diagnosed with heart diease. He has had cushings disease for the last 5 years also. We have been able to maintain the drinking and the constant peeing for the past 5 years providing him access to always go out and pee no matter what. However, since he was diagnosed with heart disease he has been put on Enaparil and for the fluid that he had in his chest and neck Furosemide. He is doing well on both medication however he is peeing all over himself and all his beds anytime he lays down to take a nap. We are beyond frustrated and don't know what to do. Does anybody have any advice my wife and I are washing beds, blankets, etc throughout the day comstantly. Thanks
Forest

There are pants called Tinkle Trousers. Look them up on the internet. It will save a lot of washing. He can wear it, and save the pee from all over everything. @Forest Coffman

I was going to suggest this also or the belly band, but if it's too much pee you can also use diapers. Special Needs Bulldogs Forum - How to Diaper a Bulldog

Thank you so much, I want to order now. Are the sizes exact for a bulldog? Hercules is 50 pounds so I was going to order a medium...

Tinkle trousers are wonderful, much better than any other commercial dog diaper. My boxer was completely incontinent the last month of her life and she was also taking steroids and peeing gallons. The tinkle trousers stay on well and are pretty comfortable for the dog. If Hercules is peeing A LOT you can add a Tena pad inside the diaper for extra protection. I've been where you are and I know it is so hard. I also put pee pee pads on Lily's dog bed with a towel on top of it for her to lie on. It cut back on all the bedding I had to wash. Hang in there. I'm sending positive thoughts to you and your boy!

@Forest Coffman If you try them on, (and do not use) if the fit is not right-you can exchange them.
