Baskerville Ultra Dog Muzzle

I got this muzzle on my vet's recommendation. My dog is big and fearful, and a real handful at the vet's office. This muzzle was easy to fit, and I trained my dog to it with a couple of days of short sessions. I actually found it a little hard to feed treats through the muzzle as recommended. My pup gets too excited about the treats to relax and take them calmly. He loves to be brushed, though, so I used brushing as the reward instead. I'd keep brushing as long as he was willing to keep his face inside the muzzle. Worked like a charm. Later, once he was used to having the muzzle fastened, I put a dab of peanut butter on the basket where he could lick it off, just as reinforcement.

One caveat: I highly recommend using the collar loop at the bottom of the muzzle strap to keep the muzzle secure. A good escape artist (like my dog) can readily get out of the muzzle unless it's attached to a collar. … more

Well, after some initial confusion as to the fitting of this item, it seems to be a good fit for our little dog. He is getting used to it slowly, which I have been told by two very knowledgeable dog trainers is the way to go. You cannot expect your dog to accept wearing this all at once. We are putting it on him every day and I have taken him outside once with it. It will take a few weeks of gradual exposure before I will feel comfortable with him wearing it in a stressful situation.

I’m a trainer assisting a client with a large bully breed. He has exhibited some dog aggression and is not yet trustworthy in social settings so we needed a tool to keep everyone safe when socializing. This molded to his nose area well after a couple adjustments from hot water bath. It is secure and allows good air flow.

We just received this and the size 3 fits our 50 lb. German Shepherd mix perfectly. We got this because our trainer requires it before they start working with potentially aggressive dogs. Our dog seemed to calm down as soon as we put it on and she did not try to remove it. It did not seem to restrict her from eating a treat or panting. I look forward to seeing how she does with it in during training.

I love these muzzles! They have smooth edges so don’t hurt you or furniture when dog rubs on you. They stay on and the dog can still drink and pant with it in and you can give training treats with a little practice. Highly recommend

I ordered a size 4 for my 70 lb mix rescue. He likes to play to rough with the grandchildren. It fits great and when peanut butter in spread inside he is happy too. Treats easily go through. Couldn't be happier with this product. My dog trainer also said this was the best brand.

I measured my chocolate lab’s head before ordering, but it still was massive on his head. I thought I lucked out when I saw that the size I thought would fit him was the only size left. I was wrong, so I’m going to donate this muzzle to my local animal shelter and probably order another muzzle someplace else, as Chewy’s selection was a bit disappointing.

First of all the description in the online says that the muzzle can be formed to shape the face of your dog but the instructions when read from the paper when you get it does not mention that at all. I don't know why it is advertised that way when the product is not designed to function in the matter. Secondly the product description on the paper instructions indicate that is designed to prevent pets from eating stuff on the ground while walking them yet the the instructions say dogs can pick up treats with the muzzle on. That is completely contrary to the purpose.

I got these muzzles for two dogs to prevent the ability to bite each other. One could push the muzzle off underneath his chin with his front paws. The other wore his but the rope strap slid down the side constantly. There's is nothing preventing this style muzzle from sliding over the top of the dog's head, AT ALL. The top strap is slick nylon and with pressure, loosened the longer the dog wore it. All this puts the dog(s) at risk of bite/fight. The 3 comes right in line of view for short nosed dog but works for long nosed dog. The 3 is too narrow for short nosed dog but the 4 would be too wide and be easily pawed off. The 3 is right width for long nosed dog. Good attempt at a secure prevention I got these muzzles for two dogs to prevent the ability to bite each other.

It needs side straps that secure to the collar or some type of harness apparatus. The thing between the eyes is ineffective. … more

My old dog had nerve damage in his leg from surgery and would chew his foot (actually ate a toe clean off his foot). He hated wearing a cone, but was fine in a muzzle. I was able to re-shape it a little based on the directions on the manufacturer website - heat it in very hot water, squeeze to reshape, then douse in cold water.
