5.0 out of 5 starsBest Option for Leaky Male
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2014
My 60 lb, 7 year old chocolate lab who I love very much has a leaking urine problem. We came face to face with this issue just as we were moving into a new place with brand new floors. The medication he was on was not working, and the other options would cost thousands of dollars with no confidence they would work.
I tried other products, and these were the only ones that worked well enough for me to be confident to let him roam around. We first tried diapers. These seemed rather uncomfortable to him as he just stood there staring at me wondering if he was supposed walk around in these (which he did awkwardly). Not only that, but he protruded right out from the diaper, rendering them useless.
I then realized male wraps could be a better solution. I tried a couple of the reusable ones. One of which, the pooch pad. This product is very stiff, does not fit properly, and allows urine to bleed through. I also tried the no-leak wrap from Doctors Foster and Smith. This works much better than the pooch pad. It is softer, and fits much more appropriately. It is also cheaper than the pooch pad.
The disposable option the Wiki Wags offers is a good one. The fit and absorption are great. My dog hardly can tell he has them on. One downside is they are somewhat costly as a long term solution. I try to swap in a new one to keep it fresh and avoid giving my guy any sort of urinary infection. I am glad they come with wipes, this helps keep things cleaner. I wish these were cheaper, but they have allowed my best friend to stay a part of the family. They work.
