My dog has diabetes and other health challenges. Is your dog diaper suitable for him?

Dog Diapers, Male Female Disposable Dog Diapers, Doggie Diap...
YoYo's Dog Diaper Coat was developed initially for our dog, YoYo, when he was 12. YoYo had diabetes, Cushings Disease, suffered from separation anxiety, and was also blind. Some would have considered YoYo a basket case and put him down, but we never gave up on him. He loved his coat and wore it all the time. In fact, he had three of them. Absolutely. Many of our clients are busy people with activities and schedules that don't always permit them to be home by a specific time.

What is diabetes?

Medifast Frequently Asked Questions. (FAQ's)
Diabetes is a life-threatening condition in which the body loses its ability to turn glucose (sugar) from food into energy.

People with diabetes either produce too much or too little Insulin resulting in abrupt swings in blood sugar levels.

CDC's Diabetes Program - FAQs - Basics About Diabetes
Diabetes is a disease in which blood glucose levels are above normal. Most of the food we eat is turned into glucose, or sugar, for our bodies to use for energy. The pancreas, an organ that lies near the stomach, makes a hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cells of our bodies. When you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use its own insulin as well as it should. This causes sugar to build up in your blood.

Before YoYo's diabetes was brought under control, he was urinating all over the house. It was ridiculous. None of the products we tried worked. Some didn't fit, some were uncomfortable and some overflowed and leaked. All of them made YoYo look goofy. We didn't try to invent a new dog diaper. What we wanted to do was effectively utilize existing disposable baby diapers. A lot of technology goes into the design of disposable baby diapers. They hold a lot of liquid without leaking.

Is it safe for a dog with diabetes mellitus to receive a general anesthetic?

Vetsulin -- Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) --
Normally animals need to have an empty stomach before they are anesthetized. A diabetic dog that has not been fed needs far less insulin. Your veterinarian will advise you on how much insulin to give your dog before it is admitted or may wish to administer a reduced dose of insulin for you. Usually a diabetic dog is administered intravenous fluid therapy during an anesthesia. This is a means of giving fluid to the animal when it cannot drink itself.
