I had good luck with my border collie, who was neutered late, by keeping a
leash on him and anytime I saw him starting to side up to something, I gave a
jerk and said no. I didn't know about belly bands 10 years ago when I got him.
Sometimes you might need a combo of the belly band AND the training. Hopefully
one, the other or both will help. If you haven't already had him neutered, I
would get that done asap, as that sometimes helps as well.

Rena, a belly band is basically a diaper for doggies.
Kendra, maybe you should not assume he will stop. Yes one could try a belly
band when they are inside the house, which in some cases works wonders but in
some others cases it does NOT curb the marking behaviour and all the belly
band does is keep the urine off whatever they were trying to mark on, then
there is the matter of some doggies try to pull off the belly bands so you may
still have to keep a close eye on them. In cases where the belly band does NOT
curb the marking behaviour inside the house then that behaviour is being
repeated, associated and conditioned, and if so it could become very difficult
to UNassociate or UNlearn, and some doggies have been known to wear belly
bands for the rest of their life when inside the house.
