Would these be useful if the dog is incontinent? My cousin's dog, a chocolate lab, and the biggest mush you've ever seen, is rather incontinent. He doesn't deliberately go in the house, he just dribbles a bit.

He's old. I think he's 14 which is ancient for that breed isn't it? Well he's half blind and half deaf, his bottom is droopy and he's moving rather slowly. But aside from old age he's not in pain or ill health. His family loves him. He does spend a few hours alone some days and I'm wondering if the belly band would work in his situation or if that would just be uncomfortable for him? Maybe better than lying where he piddled when he's alone? Or perhaps just when they have company to keep people from slippping in Boston's puddles?

But if it's something that dogs hate I wouldn't want to subject poor Bo to another indignity.
