    Dog diaper question.

    We have been able to manage Nikki's incontinence with mattress pads, mostly because it's not been continuous. Now it is and she's uncomfortable so I bought a couple of washable dog diapers but they're the ones that are used with liners. I'm using Always overnight with wings. Just started tonight. How long can I leave these on? Four hours?

    As much as I've mopped up after her, I don't know how much dogs actually pee in any given day. A few cups? She's 76 pounds.

    No clue. Good luck getting it figured out. My guess is that you'll be doing some trial and error.

    Not sure about amount of pee. When I put Mardi in panties due to her coming into heat I was advised to get her the liners without wings. Maybe catching the fur??

    Also, just to be sure, if you are doing this for urine, get the adult incontinent pads vs. period pads. And I agree, no wings.

    I would also experiment with some of the toddler Pull Ups training pants, they are designed for urine, like a kids diaper, more than a dog diaper is.
    They have elastic waists, and you should be able to cut a hole for her tail to pull through, like the tighty whities trick we use for bitches in season.
