Can a male dog urinate with the Thundershirt on?

Yes, they can. The shirt should be fitted around their chest, not their abdomen, so urination isn't a problem! My dog has never urinated on his shirt, he wears it most days for separation anxiety and is let out to the yard in it at least once a day!

Glad to get the information you provided, Jodi P. But hoping your dog is let out more often than what you said ".... is let out to the yard in it at least once a day!" More often would be much better-- just saying

The largest Thundershirt for Cats is the size Large. However, many customers use the Heather Grey Small Thundershirt for Dogs if their cat does not fit in the size Large for Cats

I"m not sure. It's a compression garment. It might be a good idea to contact the manufacturer and ask that question. Here's a link to that page where you cam make the inquiry: http://www.thundershirt.com/ContactUs.aspx

Yes. I used this in the middle of an 8 X 10 rug that my dachshund repeatedly urinated on. He received one shock after walking on the rug himself and another by accident when my daughter walked on the rug while holding him. His collar was removed about 4 weeks after that and he has not stepped foot on the rug since. It has been several months. I am very pleased with this product.

When I ordered it I found a size chart giving Thundershirt size by chest measurement and weight range. Searching again now I find several listings that included "size and color options". According to that, the Large (grey) is for dogs 41-60 lbs and 24"-32" chest size. It should fit snugly. For whatever reasons, I see pink and blue, also Large, don't seem to give that information on the listing.

It helps to keep the pee on the pad and off the floor around it. You might have to put one side on at a time untill he gets use to using it with the sides on. How ever if your dog is marking you might want to try a male wrap VETS BEST I found works the best and is most comfortable for the dog. Also notice when he is going it sometimes it is seperation anxiety I have to put one on my dog if I leave for a short time he even seems to have anxiety when I go downstairs to do laundry other then that he could be marking if you have other pets or females he may be marking his territory if needed you can also use feminine panty shields inside the wrap in case of accident.--------Good Luck hope this helps

No, this specific diaper is for female dogs. You will need to get one designed especially for male dogs. The specific company that makes this diaper for males calls it a PoochPant Male Dog Wrap

Yes they are. Depending on the dog, you might be able to use them for males, but I think the belly band works better for incontinent males.

The Thundershirt didn't work for our Yorkie at all- it had no effect whatever. We took it back to the pet store and got a refund. Sorry we can't help or answer your question better.

It can but I would give him a break as much as possible. It has a cut out so they can still go to the bathroom but it can rub. Our female has an infection in that area now. The vet can't say for sure if it's caused by her wearing this too much, but she said it isn't helping either. So we try not to leave it on for extended periods like all night or during the day when we're working.

yes, and if well sized without any smudging too! the dog must be supervised while wearing, it get tip over. It worked well for my Jake Russel, . he was 30 pounds and took the "small" wheel chair.

Yes and I only know because I've forgot to take it off when I let my dog outside. Some poop gets on the diaper and some was inside it. Not fun. FYI--These diapers must be used with a pad of some kind inside as they are not waterproof.

I think it would be warm for the dog to wear it for a long time. I think it is made out a thin fleece type of material. I have central air so it is not a problem for my dog, Lizzie. It does seem to work, although I have only had to use it a couple of times. My brother has two dogs and the thundershirt works for their dogs. It s

I'm a dog trainer and I don't think the thundershirt would help with aggressive behavior. I would not want to rely on it, anyway. If you have a dog that may behave that way, I would use a gentle leader head collar when I walked the dog to control it from trying to lunge at another dog. I would not let the dog go to a dog park and would muzzle it in situations where it has to be around other dogs (such as at the vet's office).

Yes. You need to wear briefs with the pad and just pull the brief down a bit and urinate as usual.

No, the inside is like lambs wool. It would not be water or urine proof. My dog LOVES this bed!
