TCC - indoor litter box?

Our dog was diagnosed with bladder TC this Jan.  He is responding well to piroxicam with 20% shrinkage.

I need advice on how to deal with incontinence.  We live in a third floor walk up condo and our dog frequently can't make it to the door or pees on the outdoor steps (obviously neighbors aren't thrilled with that).  We have treated all UTIs - - its just that he needs to go out alot and can't quite make it to the sidewalk.

Any indoor boxes or anything that has worked?  He is not incontinent in the house so I would like to avoid diapers all day - - I just need an affordable dog litter box type thing that dogs will actually use.  Please help!

You can try to train your dog to use one of the "piddle pads" that are used to house break puppies. Also consider seeing a holistic vet about a product called Bladder Strength by Vetriscience. We found this to restore normal bladder function - no straining, partial emptying, or incontinence - in our cocker with tcc. We saw results in about 2 weeks and all symptoms were resolved in about 2 months.
