1-put it on them and forget about it:
In this manner, belly bands are a band aid, they just cover the problem. The problem still exists.
2-use it as a training tool:
In combination with training, the belly band helps because it keeps you sane. I'm serious! You don't have to worry about trying to swoop him up every time he lifts his leg. It helps keep you calm and anger free through the process, which makes training so much easier. Plus, if there is no smell of urine in the house, he's less likely to mark. | I missed the part of her question about correcting him outside - thanks!
