Belly band are really for stopping a dog from hickin his leg and peeing everywhere. But a lot of people use them for good looking training aids to house break there pets. We has a few vets offices that buy just the bellybands for the dogs. Sometimes we get some girls that order belly bands and to tell you the truth we have no clue why they cant do anything for females. They do better with hotpants or lined panities. I hope that this helps. I have not used a belly band on archie for training but i do when we go out to a store or to friends house because it stops him from marking his spot.

I love the belly band. It works amazingly well. That thread pretty much says it all. We use ours on our male because he was used as a stud and hikes his let alot.
