Since he has been used to a belly band should I expect that I will always need to use a belly band with him?  Also will he eventually loose that strong male urine odor or will he always have that smell?
 Anyone with any experience?
 
 |  [SIZE="3"]I can tell you my experience with a Male I adopted that was used as a stud. He was 10 yrs old when I adopted him from a Rescue Group. I did have to keep him in belly bands. The Urine older was strong at first and it did lessen with time.   
I tried many times to have him not wear the belly bands, but he kept marking in the house. He did sleep in a play pen at night and I kept the belly band off during his sleep time and he did great. But during the day he did have to wear one.   
Congratulations on your new baby. |
