SammyDoo Pet Diaper Wrap Fits, Approximately 6-Pound to 20-Pound, 11 to 15-Inch, Girth 18 to 24-Inch

As a doggie diaper, the SammyDoo Pet Diaper is priceless. It does an excellent job of staying put and holding the diaper securely. It's extremely well constructed of quality materials and surprisingly low priced. Should it be needed, the garment can be washed in the washing machine. Just be sure to cover all the Velcro or it will adhere to other garments. Let it air dry instead of putting it in the dryer.

So, why did I rate it with only four stars? The product description includes this statement: "Swaddles and Comforts your pet to make them feel secure and helps with anxieties." The SammyDoo is not only meant to protect your home and clothing from your dog's excretions but, to make your pet feel less anxious and more secure. That was my sole purpose in ordering it. Our vet diagnosed our little dog as anxious and having separation anxiety. I hoped it would relax him but, I can see no discernible difference in his behavior.

You may want to know:

*If your pet is afraid of noises, s/he may react to the sound of opening the Velcro when using the SammyDoo Pet Diaper--mine did and didn't like it. A big drawback is that if the item is used for curbing anxieties--not as a diaper--you must remove and replace it every time you take your pet outside for urinating and bowel movements. There goes that sound again...

*The tag featuring the five-steps pictorial graphics for placing the garment on a pet are small and not so easy to follow. Additionally, it's hard to get a pet to stand still long enough to get it on properly.

*The size chart states a weight range that is simply not detailed enough. For example, the small size can fit dogs from six-20 pounds with a girth of 11 to 24 inches.

If your dog needs a diaper and isn't bothered by noise, this is an excellent product. If you want to buy it to make him/her less anxious, consider the drawbacks and personal experience I noted.

My dog has numerous health issues that cause him to have periodic urinary incontinence. He has for over a year slept in a Simple Solution Washable Male Wrap, although I gave up on the recommended pads long ago. Dog pads are not up to the job; I use Poise Ultimate Absorbency Pads or generic equivalent with much better success.

The male wrap is not always perfect. Even with the larger pads, they don't always contain everything. Because of this, I've covered his bedding (in his crate) with a waterproof bassinet pad so that he doesn't ruin the foam. It can be a pain washing these, however. Also, the velcro seems to have relaxed a bit on one of the two pads we keep in circulation. It will no longer stay on overnight...clearly, not ideal!

With that in mind, i thought I'd give this diaper wrap a try. You can see my fellow in his in the customer action shots.

Speaking of those pictures, currently among the photos is an extension kit an additional velcro pad and some strap lengtheners. These DO NOT come with this product. If you get this, you're getting the basic kit only.

I didn't find the item that difficult to put on the dog, maybe because I've been manhandling him into doggie diapers for some time. He grumbles a bit but put up with it about as well as the less complicated mechanism, even though he didn't care for having his tail pushed through the loop. As soon as it was on, he seemed perfectly fine with it. It didn't restrict his movements in any way, and he comfortably followed his routine through the rest of the day.

We did encounter some problems during the night, however. The velcro sticks to the flannel covering of the pad. It pulled the bedding askew and also pulled the diaper out of shape. We never had this problem with the male wrap.

Another reviewer using the product to calm his dog mentioned that his dog found the noise of removal distressing. This is something shared by the male wrap as well. It's something my dog has never gotten used to; he jumps every time I take it off.

After having used the item for some weeks, I have to say it seems to be slightly better at containing urine than the male wrap, maybe because it is universally snug where the male wrap has elasticized bands on each side. It doesn't always contain everything, though, and cleaning it is more of a production than the male wrap. Because of the greater area of velcro, it continues getting caught on fabrics, which remains an issue.

We have reverted to the male wraps for the most part but may pull this out when his health goes into bad periods. As long as his incontinence remains infrequent, the male wrap and bassinet pads seem to do a good job of keeping him comfortable and containing the mess without the more elaborate structure and the issues with catching on things. That may change if he develops more frequent problems.

My husband and I rescued a little 9-pound Maltese dog whom we named Lola from the puppy mills. The poor little girl had no socializing and did not know many of the basics: climbing stairs, walking on a leash, and most of all, potty training.

She's really sweet and we've come a long way with her but potty training is still not under control. So I decided to try this Sammy Doo Diaper Wrap. I ordered mine in small, which was the perfect fit for Lola. The bright red color and the solid cloth material are stylish and show evidence of quality craftsmanship.

Here is the problem: it's difficult to figure out how to use it. Lola was getting increasingly agitated as my husband and I with the help of a visiting couple tried to figure this out. We put Lola's tail through the elastic opening in the rear of the wrap, but then couldn't figure out where to attach the Velcro and where to attach the multiple straps. By the time the front shoulder straps were securely in place, Lola was totally miserable with us.

Once the SammyDoo Pet Diaper Wrap was on with a pee liner in place it did its job and Lola seemed fine with it. But then we were afraid to take it off and start all over again! It would have been a simple matter for the company to a) provide larger and more visual instructions (they do include hard-to-follow wearing instructions) or b) offer simple icons on the wrap so that customers know what goes where. I really like this whole concept but can only recommend with reservations.

The biggest problem I had with the SammyDoo Pet Diaper Wrap was figuring out how to put it on. The instructions that come with it are terrible, the company definitely needs someone else writing their instructions. Finally after watching a YouTube video on how to put it on I got it on my dog correctly. The other problem I have with this product is that it runs a little on the small side. My Shih Tzu weighs 17 pounds so I got the medium which is supposed to fit up to 20 pounds but it is a little snug. Otherwise the product worked great once I got it on him. I used Poise pads instead of the diaper and they are very absorbent. There are no leaks with this product as I have had with other doggie diapers and he can go all day in his SammyDoo Diaper Wrap.

Well, my little guy looks JUST like the model for this item and sometimes feels the need to mark his territory in undesirable places so I thought I'd give this a go. I've tried some home-made solutions for a belly band to help with it which didn't work out so well. I like how nicely this fit and it was easy to put on him. The problem is, he's not used to wearing things around him so it sort of freaked him out a bit and he wouldn't move or lay down or sit. I will keep trying with him, it seems like a really great product and I want it to work. Not just the "diaper" aspect, but the calming aspect. That would be great for those summer thunderstorms.
