Wow, Joey, maybe you should move here but then again I don't take much to a dog peeing on everything either. Katie, very creative belly band! Dora probably wonders why you get to wear such a cute belt when she is the girl and needs to be dressed up all the time. I hope the real belly bands arrive soon or you decide rather than be humiliated you will wait and go outside to do your thing. Great pictures of Joey - I think he is very cute!
Not a criticism but I have to agree with Shelteez2, that the belly bands and neutering him are not going to stop this behavior if you are not reinforcing it is a very bad thing to do each time now. Training a puppy does take a lot of time and effort - sometimes far more effort than you would like it too - I have had a much harder time training Tucker than the others. I am not sure why - it may be because he is smaller and can't wait quite as long but I also think he is just a brat sometimes. This is just a suggestion - I have never tried a belly band but I think I would not use it at times when I can give Joey my full attention so I can correct any peeing and use the belly band when I am occupied with something I can't just jump up from, like fixing supper or something like that. These are just my thoughts, Joey is your dog and you know better than I do what kind of time you have and if you think anything would help. Have you thought about using the puppy pads in an area of the house. Some people do that and then gradually move the pad outside so the puppy as he grows gets a better understanding that the peeing part happens outside not in.
