Ideal for dog bandages

These nappies are suitable for human baby nappies but also provide extra protection when used in senior dog urine bandages. Over the years we have used urine pads on each of our senior dogs as needed. We have used diapers to prevent leakage as the absorbency of elastics is not always the best, especially with larger dogs who can cough a lot. The problem with regular diapers is that they only need to be cut down to the main body - no elastic, no waistband, no velcro. If we cut too tight when cutting the elastic part, it may cut a hole in the protective cover over the absorbent material, which may cause the gel material to flatten out when it gets wet. On the other hand, these inserts are ready to use. We can turn them into bandages in seconds without spending half an hour or more adjusting a pack of diapers. They hold a lot of liquid and often the fabric of the mouthpiece isn't even wet so we can just replace the absorbent pad. Since these pads are designed for use in disposable diapers, moisture is quickly absorbed and does not get on the skin. No moisture is retained on the skin, causing it to break up and develop a rash. The pads are also easier to fold in half, unlike diapers where the rear protective plastic liner (which keeps the back of commercial disposable diapers dry) prevents liquid from being absorbed by the second layer or the material of the band itself. Price wise they are more expensive than comparable diaper packs, but the ease of use and excellent absorbency make up for the difference. There are cheaper options, such as B. $10 for a 30-pack, but they usually contain 8 to 12 ounces of liquid. They also often have an adhesive backing, which may help when such pads are used in reusable plastic diapers, but not in a urinary tape. If the bandage gets wet, removing the pad's adhesive strip becomes a very messy job. You don't need glue to attach the inserts to the straps, so why bother with that? For us, these assignments are perfect the way they are.
