Does your yorkie get sad... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

When you put a belly band on or a diaper? Coco is fine but Rocco gets unplayful, sad and just plain pitiful as soon as I put a belly band on him

I only put it on him when we're at someone elses house because I don't want him to pee on the carpet. I sometimes even put it on him when we're at home, if he regresses in his pottying. I know it's the belly band that makes him sad, because as soon as I take it off, he's up and running, playing with Coco and smiling. But when the belly band goes on, he sulks in the corner

It's kinda cute and funny but I feel bad. Anyone else?

Believe it or not, Bobbi brings his belly band to me...........he knows the routine

Buddy dosen't wear a belly band but he gets, what I call embarrased when
I have to put a sweater or coat on him. He lays down and looks so sad
with his head between his paws or he rolls over on his back with his legs
up in the air so I can't put it on looking pitiful

Maybe he doesn't like the color? Or is it masculine enough? You know how guys are.....

Toby is like Bobbi...he will actually stand still and happilly wait fior me to put it on. I think he associates the belly band with free run of the house .

Oh no! I can picture that face....

Bobbi is the opposite..........he's a poser and VERY conceited

rocky hate wearing belly belts! he looks so sad and he will try his best to get them off but he never does get them off.

vainchick5 · 05-04-2007, 10:07 AM

He gets super pitiful and will sit in the corner. Coco will try playing with him and he'll just ignore her

being all dramatic. As soon as I remove it, he's back to himself. So weird..lol

I've got 3 boys, 2 don't mind them at all, but TJ, who is the youngest at 7 mos. hates them. Just like your Rocco, he will sulk. I feel sorry for him because he won't even lay down for a nap; he just stands there with his eyes almost closed. its really funny, but I cave and take it off him. At that point all is ok again, runs like a crazy dog!

Gotta love em!!

Maybe he feels uncomfortable or perhaps he associates it with punishment for his regressions. Aww poor baby.

Well I would love nothing more than to prance around naked as well, but we all can't be so lucky..lol...So I have to resort to the belly bands cause he wants to fertilize and soil their carpets occasionally

That is what Sachi does. He stands there frozen and pitiful. If he does move, he spreads his back legs and does a hobble type walk (and no, it isnt too tight). It is so ridiculous I cannot even stand to put it on him. Both he and my family guilt me out of it.
My carpet is so bad now, though, I am pulling it out and putting in tile.
