1. Modified Baby Diaper

You only need scissors and a baby diaper for this type of design. Check the steps below.

  • Get the slide that suits your dog, preferably one. This material will not be a problem if you have a baby at home.
  • Cut a hole through the baby slide with scissors, which the dog is going through.
  • If you have a tailor-made dog, you may use the doggie diaper as it is.
  • Place the diaper on your dog after you have cut the hole, and you’re done!

2. Pee Pad Diaper

Another dog slide is a pee pad. You must cut much more, but the methods are straightforward.

Check the steps below.

  • Make an hourglass cutout on a pad for urine.
  • Ensure that your dog fits in properly with the size of the hourglass cutout.
  • Measure the hip circumference of your dog and other sections of the diaper.
  • Slide your dog’s legs and tape them on each side. 

3. Sock Diaper

You may use a sock to make a diaper while your pet is little. This is a simple and relatively effective method.

This is how You can make a dog diaper from a sock:

  • Firstly, measure your dog’s tail base thickness.
  • Cut a loop on the ground and top of the sock, approximately one inch from the toe.
  • Cut the sock’s ankle so that it almost falls to the heel.
  • Place the hole over your dog’s tail and tug around the rear legs on both sides of the opening sternum.
  • Adjust the sock to provide the proper coverage over the bits of your puppy.
  • Knead the sock on all sides. You want it tightly attached yet slack enough to fit underneath the bowl with two fingers.
  • Lastly, put a sanitary pad between the sock and your dog’s bits to make it absorbed.

4. Sanitary Pad Diaper

You don’t need many tools for this diaper design; you only need a boxer and a sanitary pad.

Check out the procedures below.

  • Firstly, cut a tail-hole on the boxer’s brackets first.
  • The tail hole often falls into the crotch someplace.
  • Then, slide the napkin inside the boxer once you have cut off the opening. The center of the stitch that links the two legs should be in line.
  • You must change the boxer briefs if your dog is little so that they will be tighter. It would help if you did so before you took any other measures.
  • Lastly, cut both sides and sew them down to lower the size of the boxers.

5. T-Shirt Diaper

No stitching is necessary for this design. However, it would help if you practiced some shirt-folding techniques.

  • After placing the shirt flat, fold the seam to the center of the collar or about a third of the way.
  • Then, fold over the other side to the first fold, then fold down to make a “T” shape. 
  • Press the top portion firmly.
  • Fold the shirt floor to meet the sleeves to shorten it for the correct slide length.
  • Fold the shirt.
  • Put the shirt upside down on your dog’s underside.
  • Check it with the sleeves looped and tied or pinned.
