Puppy nappies not needed

I wrote about my brother-in-law and his wife getting a new cavoodle puppy. My sister-in-law said they’d bought a bed, collar, lead and other bits and pieces including puppy nappies. I’d never heard of such a thing. They were a bit like baby nappies but with a hole for the tail. Their daughter delivered the puppy yesterday and we caught up with her today. She told us the puppy is already toilet-trained so that’s very good news. The nappies won’t be needed unless perhaps they are used when she comes in heat. The photo is another of mine but again, not of their puppy. This one lives two doors down the road and had just had a haircut.

Possibly @Ineeddentures I know a few people who used them for a way to prevent their pupply from urinating at night. I never asked it it worked.

I can't really see Roscoe welcoming a puppy.

Roscoe would laugh at a dog wearing a puppy nappy

I had never heard of puppy nappies either. But nowadays it seems you can sell practically anything related to dogs and cats.

The pet aisle in our supermarket is longer than the baking aisle!

@Ineeddentures In the old-fashioned way, just like we did with children before disposable nappies. Nowadays some children are sent to school still in nappies!

How did we manage to train dogs in days gone by?

That is excellent news that the pup is trained, but with the adjustment of going to a new home, it isn't such a bad idea to have some nappies on hand.

I hadn't thought of that but you're quite right. There might be a few accidents.

It's good the puppy is already potty trained. That's not something I'd want to deal with, personally.

Never heard of such thing, but then we are discovering things we can't live without, all the time!

There are a few things we can't do without. One of them used to be White-Out or correction fluid but I don't think that is quite as indispensable as it once was.

Exactly You learn something new every day At one point further up the page I almost said that I thought puppy nappies were a good idea

What a lovely puppy to have! These days, many fur parents treat their pet dogs like children, giving them everything they need to live as comfortably and happily as if they were their own kids.

@JudyEv I see that explains why they give their love and attention to her.

That's very true and I think it is especially true of couples who don't have children.

I love dogs, but in retrospect, we never had a female dog...which is weird realization. Not that we feared dowry or whatever. But now that you mentioned in heat, my mind is questioning whether they too have red blood flowing out or not. Why on earth do I get such doubts?

Yes, female dogs do bleed so nappies for those times might be a very good idea.

I have seen young dogs wearing those puppy nappies. It's a good thing that the puppy is toilet-trained.

@JudyEv - Absolutely, it's not easy to train a dog if you do not have the habit.

Much better to get the dog already house-trained.

My friend used to put the nappies down when they were going out for a while so that their dogs knew where to do their toilets if necessary.

It's good that it's already trained for that. That can be very frustrating trying to teach a dog that.

It's all pretty ridiculous. Luckily the puppy was already house-trained so that's one problem less.

@JudyEv It's mental. It's beyond ridiculous People toilet trained dogs for millennia without stupid bloody puppy nappies If people can't be bothered toilet training a dog the traditional way, don't have a dog.

Never heard of puppy nappies before. I'd love a dog that's toilet trained. I can only buy a dog that is toilet trained

@Ineeddentures If everyone did that, all the puppy nappy manufacturers might go out of business!

@JudyEv I would not entertain puppy nappies in the first place Why? Why can't you just take the dog for a regular walk and get it into the routine of pooping outside
