Like I said, Jackson has been in many (probably 15) different peoples homes w/ dogs and never once lifted a leg. I don't like belly bands unless they are absolutely necessary because I feel it's just masking the problem. And with you getting him at a young age, it shouldn't be a hard task to train him out of. It's a lot more difficult with getting an older dog who has already established marking as a habit.
Oh, I agree!
