How to Choose a Dog Muzzle
Choosing an appropriate dog muzzle is a challenging task. We’re often being asked how to do it properly. Let’s see what the frequently asked
questions are:
1. Is it safe to leave a dog with a muzzle on for a long time?
It is not recommended to leave your doggy without control while muzzled. Try to keep your dog within your eyesight when he wears a muzzle
because he can get hurt. If a muzzle is made of metal, a dog can hurt himself trying to pull it off. If he wears a loop-like leather muzzle, watch
over him as he can’t drink or eat without your help.

2. Which muzzle is better? A leather or a wire cage?
A wire dog muzzle provides your pet with better airflow. It allows him to drink water and pant while being muzzled. On the other hand, a leather
muzzle is a better solution for winter and cold weather, it does not reflect sunlight and usually more lightweight in comparison with wire cage
muzzles. Both kinds of muzzles are easily adjustable. We offer different sizes for almost any medium or large dog breed.
