belly band dog

Many belly bands include a wetness indicator that changes appearance when the band becomes wet, signaling it’s time to replace it.

Disposable male belly bands are commonly offered in sizes XS, S and M. For the M size the listed waist range is about 18–25 inches. Measure your dog’s waist just in front of the hind legs to choose the correct size.

Belly bands and recovery garments are used for dogs in heat, housetraining or incontinence, post-surgery recovery, travel, and to protect wounds, sutures and hot spots on the torso.

Common package counts shown include 96-count (often sold as 2 packs of 48) and 144-count (often sold as 2 packs of 72).

Listings commonly describe a polymer outer material, a super-absorbent core that locks in liquid, and a breathable outer layer to promote airflow and help minimize odors.

Roll the suit up and insert your dog’s head, put the front legs through the small openings, then pull the suit over the body. Bring the lower belly flaps between the hind legs toward the base of the tail and secure the flaps with the snap closure to help prevent slipping or shifting.
