I think we have this under control! We had our Thanksgiving on Saturday the 21st since I share my girls with in-laws. Deuce did well with the thunder shirt and belly band. He even asked to go out by hitting my legs and another time barking at the door. My daughter left her yorkie with me since she was traveling and visiting where there were other dogs. Maddie also needed a haircut so I need a few days to complete the task. Deuce is still doing great. He isn't wearing the shirt nor band and is fantastic. Hopefully we are over the bump but I won't let my guard down. We remain attentive to potty needs. However I still think he will need the shirt and band when I have the family here. He gets a bit anxious when there is so much chaos. Thanks to all of you who contributed ideas to solve this problem. I also have to give credit to the ladies and trainers at my local Pet Smart here in Fredericksburg who voluntarily spent time with me discussing the situation and contributed their ideas towards a solution.
