Yes, you can if you can sew a little. I cant, lol, but you probably can. Just search "belly band" on this site.

He will try to get his way for awhile, poms are funny. I really like them but they are not as lovie dovie as other breeds unless they want something, like to go bye bye, then they are willing to do anything, tricks, put on clothes-no problem. But if they dont want anything forget it.

Also, can I make belly bands if I cant immediately find them to buy?

yes. You can even use a long tube sock and tie it around his back until you get some made or bought.

I can sew pretty good, do I have to fill with some material to absord the urine?

A panty liner will work, however, you don't really want him peeing in the belly band...it's accident prevention only. Take him out regularly....every hour on the hour.

You can use a pantie liner in the inside of the bally band or cut a pad in half and use that.

Sounds like a dominace thing. When we brought our shih tzu home Grayson started humping abby in odd places and after research we found it was show her he was the big dog even though she is now way bigger than him. She shows the respect because Grayson told her I'm number 1.

Grayson has been neutered as well.

As far as peeing on your baby well Grayson also peed in her food dish and I went and bought a new food dish to look just like his and he quit. I think it was to say go away I dunno but for whatever reason it worked but that was a totally different situation than yours!

Good luck with your boys

I posted in your other thread, so I won't repeat the whole thing.. but on the humping.... it is a dominance thing. It's not unnatural, just kind of rude in mixed company. However, from the other frustrations and concerns in your other thread, if it were me, I'd try to curb that a bit. Sounds like your pup was the ultra-submissive one in his litter. He needs to build some confidence and constantly being dominated and bullied by your Pom might not hurry that along. Others may have more expert opinions on that.

I may have missed it somewhere, but what are your dogs' names? I feel like we know them by now and I want to quit calling them Yorkie and Pom!

Lol

Bandit and Scoobydo, the Pom is Bandit and the yorkie is scoobydo heheheheh,

well I have separated them again as tehy are both very aggressive for my attention and lap LOL. Yorkie seems to love being a lap dog, where as the pom Bandit does not like too much of that but still wants to own me, if you know what I mean. Bandit is a very assertive boy and does not care how big a dog is. He is actually smaller than Scoobydo . I listened to one lady and cut some socks and made belly bands LOL, they look funny as hell but the yorkie still peed while wearing it but somehow it slipped and didnt get wet. He peed like 20 minutes after his last pee. Geeze at 5mths I didnt expect this but they are both drinking a lot of water

As for the humping LOL I just try to break it up, it looks rude

Thanks for their names!!
Actually, that tube sock thing was ringing a bell for me, and I just now remembered it. My Shi Tzu has horrible storm phobias. With research, I found that, like autistic children, "wrapping" them helps with the over-stimulation. Long story short, there is an expensive pressure therapy solution, but I got him some premie-tshirts that were very tight, and it helped tremendously to take the edge off his phobia. I told our holistic groomer about it, and she told me that she had a client with a small dog that was nervous and they used tube socks that fit over his whole trunk area to give that same pressure therapy. So in addition to working as belly bands, perhaps the tube socks might work also give him some comfort and help him relax. Maybe Bandit needs one too!

The humping is totally natural, may look rude but they need to establish the pecking order between the two of them. I will ocassionally look out in my yard and see my labs doing this, and they are full grown and both female. Crazy wacky dogs
