Secure your dog and surrounding people as a dog is first of all an
animal and it does have its instincts sometimes difficult to resist,
like all the animals do.
We guarantee that our dog muzzles will not cause any damage for your
pet's health.
Leather
dog muzzles will allow your four-legged friend to feel rather
free. Meanwhile, high quality leather straps will prevent Mastiffs from injuring other people. The peculiarity of leather dog
muzzles is that they protect your dog's snout in case of hit.
Leather is absolutely safe for walking in frost.
A well conceived buckle system will assure a tight and reliable fit
and will allow to put the muzzle on or off rather quickly.
Metal
dog muzzles will be of great use for happy owners of
''serious'' dogs. The metal muzzles we are suggesting you are all
furnished with additional leather or foam rubber pad protecting your
dog's skin from rubbing. Being made of
high quality steel wire, the metal muzzles will
serve for a long time gently preventing your Mastiff from committing
follies. You can also purchase a
metal
dog muzzle with warmth-keeping material. Such models are
destined for walking dogs in nipping frost. We are not recommending
to use them in warm time of the year. Buying a dog muzzle in our
store, you will surely get a required and safe for your pet's health
accessory of excellent quality.
Choosing muzzles for Mastiffs it is necessary to remember that
your pet will have to remain muzzled for a rather long period during
the day. That is why it's difficult to make a definite choice
despite a wide range of various shaped models you can see in
different dog shops. Cone-shaped dog muzzles are offered most
frequently. It is absolutely uncomfortable as a muzzle must ''lie''
on dog's snout, but not to constrict it. We advise you to look for
cylinder-shaped
muzzles allowing your dog to open his mouth and to put his
tongue out.
Actually dog muzzles are being made of various materials. The most
widespread are leather, metal, nylon and plastic. As for shape
kinds, they are represented by wire-shaped muzzles, blind muzzles
and so called bear-loops.
Leather
basket muzzles will be especially suitable for
unaggressive dogs. Being crafted of leather straps, such muzzles
allow a dog to breath freely, or to stick his tongue out. Besides,
leather dog muzzles normally has a
rather
light weight. Only plastic muzzles weight less but they
often crack in frost or under hits. Using a plastic dog muzzle makes
sense only if your dog takes part in races where every gram matters.
Choosing a leather muzzle, you have to be aware that leatherette
muzzles are often erroneously called leather ones. Dog muzzles made
of leatherette cost less but their period of use is considerably
less as well. Genuine leather is much more durable, so such muzzle
will serve much longer, yet, it is much more expensive. You have to
pay attention to the rivets
connecting the straps. It is recommended to check carefully
so as they have no burrs, and the rivets itselfs must be made of
high quality metal. You also need to make attention to the way of
muzzle adjustment. If your Mastiff is accustomed for a muzzle and
doesn't try to put it off all the time, in this case one strap will
be enough. Otherwise, it is better to use a
construction
with a forehead strap.
In case if your Mastiff is aggressive or goes in for
attack/agitation training, you must use a
wire
metal muzzle. It is recommended to use them
only while above-zero temperature,
as dog's tongue can freeze to the metal in winter time. You can
prevent your dog from this unpleasant situation purchasing a metal
muzzle with heat insulation material. As such muzzles weights too
much, it is reasonable to use them only in exceptional cases. Front
metal wire, sometimes doubled, has rather a decorative value.
Though, sometimes it can
prevent
your dog from picking garbage up in the streets. If you
have decided to buy a metal muzzle with front bar, make sure that
the bars were vertical, then, it will be less probable to break
teeth with it. You have also remember that metal dog muzzles have an
unpleasant feature. In case of hit, the dog can injure not only the
object of aggression but also itself. It has to be mentioned one
more time that metal muzzles are destined mainly for big and
aggressive dogs.
Blind
dog muzzles are made of leather or synthetic fabric. It is an
interim variant between metal and leather basket-shaped muzzles.
Wearing such muzzle even a big dog will be troubled to bite. As
opposed to metal muzzles such muzzle can't injure a dog. But a dog
may not wear it for a long time in hot days as he ''perspire'' by
means of his tongue. The only advantage of blind muzzles under a
metal ones is that it weights considerably less.
Dog training tools industry has recently presented a
new type of dog muzzles made of
nylon or other synthetic material, having a shape of a loop, so
called ''bear-loop''.
The muzzles of this type are usually fixed by means of Velcro
fasteners. It is a great idea to use them is you need to take your
dog in public transport, respecting the law. It also can be used for
vet visits or dog socializing. Choosing a muzzle, remember, that you
buy it not for yourself but for your pet, and, first of all,Â
it must be comfortable.
