Belly bands are small materials that go around/cover the "private" parts. Mostly they are used as an aid in housebreaking, for non-broken pets, or for elderly pets that have lost bladder control. They are also often used when a dog is in heat to help prevent accidental breeding.
 
You can find them from the ultra fancy to the simple homemade pieces of material wrapped around the dog. There is a diaper type for females and a band type for males.

Thank you! I use pee pads and i tried confining, he is the loudest
most pathetic whiner, he sounds like hes dying. But i was consistent
and he got used to it, but then he doesnt always pee on the pad in
the room. What are belly bands? I have never heard of them, what do
they do and where can i get them? Thanks so much!
