Use nappies alongside a diagnosis, not instead of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, for a puppy still learning, nappies protect your floor but slow the training down - a puppy who never feels wet learns more slowly.

For ongoing incontinence, work on four to six a day and buy accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill my dog try to remove it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMany do at first. Distract rather than scold - a walk, a chew, a game - and most dogs stop objecting within a day or two. A dog who won't stop chewing at it needs supervision, since the gel shouldn't be swallowed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use them on a cat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSome cats tolerate them for incontinence or post-surgery, though many object strongly. Fit by weight and expect a period of adjustment.
