Not Much Action Here

judy · 09-27-2012, 08:40 AM

Things have quieted down around here. I have just been busy with the end of summer. My friends and I had parties and dinners almost every night! I'm not used to that, although I did live that way in my younger days, when I always had people over, or went out all of the time.

Today, I was supposed too go to my last writing workshop, but I have to get a mani/pedi, and then might go with Jessie and Mackenzie to an exercise class. I can't do that many things in one day, especially with having to take Max out. He is in a belly band now, and is crated when I am not home. I don't leave for more than 5 or 6 hours because he has to be walked. His belly band is still wet when I let him out though. I guess the urge to mark is strong! I take it off when he goes in his crate, so I have to be home often.

I know this is probably a dumb question but Judy, what do you mean his belly band is still wet when you let him out?

When I first belly banded him, he waited to pee until I let him out. I put a sanitary napkin inside (I cut it in three, since he is so little!). Now, he doesn't wait to go out. He just pees and the napkin gets wet. The belly band itself is actually dry. Except last night! I must have forgotten to let him out, because even the belly band was wet. His belly needs a good washing now! Stinky!

Oh..okay. Joey is only 3.5 lbs, but I still put a half a pad on him. I just have to make sure I change it. It wouldn't matter if I let Joey out or not, he still goes whenever he wants except if he's in his crate. Belly bands definitely help with not letting the furniture get wet.

I was hoping he wouldn't like being wet, but he doesn't seem to care. It is so much better than having him pee wherever he wants though! I should have done this years ago!

I will suggest that you put them in a mesh bag to wash. My washer quit working and the guy that fixed it found a belly band wrapped around something. I always wash them in a bag now...never just throw them in the washer,live and learn.
