Ready for a laugh @ Joeys expense? *too many pics*

[Daisy and Delilah]

Oh my goodness, Joey!!! I don't know what to do. This public humiliation must be lowering your self esteem alot. I was wondering if you just started this when Dora came into the family. Could you just be jealous?

You are so doggone cute and tiny. It's so hard to train you little stinkers. I know all about it.

Joey, you better not do this anymore or you may have to have a time out in Florida at Miss Terry's house.

that first pic is priceless....

what? do I have somehting on my face or what?... why are you all laughing at?...

hope you get your peeing problem solved...and I agree.. just use them when he´s not on your sight... I don´t have male dogs but with Queeq when I can´t be 100% on her I put her ina bathroom with a puppy pad... she pee´s on that (thankfully)... but when i can watche her I´m like going out every 30-40 mins...... and even then we sometimes get accidents...

Terrific photos! Baby Joey, you need to learn to do things right, life is just lots more fun with you after that!

Katie, where on earth did you order from, that they need FOUR WEEKS??? I just got some belly bands for Ozzy from www.pawstoadmire.com, she shipped them out 2 days after I ordered them! And she has almost 100 fabric options as well. And her prices were quite reasonable.

I agree with Sheltezz, you should NOT be tolerating this behaviour, it is teaching the wrong thing. Neutering won't stop this behaviour, only training will.

Ozzy was never house trained. He is now "at least 15," and has a lot of issues to cope with. Training him now is not an option. In fact, the vet is not sure he can control it any longer, with all his other health problems. So I keep him in a belly band in the house. (Dad will at times let Ozzy out and forget to take it off! )

LOL.
Aww Joey, I am sure you are embarrassed but I must admit I think you look really cute in your homemade belly band. I hope Dora doesn't make too much fun of you.

Oh, MY! Joey is adorable!!!! I know your frustration with the potty training. Betina and Jewelz are neither one housebroken! *sigh* At least little dog equals little mess!

LOL! I thought you all would like it. He does have potty pads, in the house (3 inside) BUT he only either uses it inside (leg lift) OR outside.

I do correct him, but I cant watch him 24/7, so on comes the band. He does not wear it all the time!

And yes, leg lifting started when Dora come home. He knows she is female, and it drives him nuts!

He can get fixed in about 2 months, so hopefully that will stop that habit.

Most of the Chis I have met had a hard time potty training. I do train him, and I do correct this behavior. BUT he is hard headed, and little, and I know that it is pretty normal for a little dog to not be fully trained until a year old.

Sandy, this is a company that hand makes by measurements. Joey is only 7-8 inches around, and all the ones I saw (xxs) were still to big to fit him. I needed a special one for him. They said they have to hand make, and they go by order number. I am still hoping that I get them sooner. (I ordered him a hustler one and a blue one) I believe it was called barkonoumus? I will check, they wre only 4 bucks apiece, and free shipping

Thank you everyone for the nice comments

And I told Joey that two nice ladies wanted him.. Names are Terry and Pam
He said as long as he doesnt have to be aboosed, he wants to go now

Cute! I don't like the idea of belly bands. They don't resolve the behavior. How much does he weigh? How old is he?

[Daisy and Delilah]

No aboose here, Joey. Come on down!!!!!!

[kt_luvs_kitties]

He weighs in at 2 pounds, although last time at the vet, he had lost a few ounces. But I will stick with 2 pounds.


He is about 10 1/2 months - 11 months .
