BASKERVILLE ULTRA MUZZLE - Patented Humane Design, Breathable, Dog can Pant and Drink, Adjustable, Padded, Training Muzzle for Medium-sized Dogs, Prevents Biting, Wildlife Scavenging (Size 3, Black)

We needed a muzzle for our 2 Male Great Danes that are 2 year old brothers and are nervous around new people and new situations since they are rescues that were not socialized properly and were abused. We wanted to ensure that when going to the Vet for a check up that no one would get bit. We had tried another muzzle the vet let us borrow that had a belt buckle like closure but that took too long to close and our one dog would go nuts and we could never get it on him. So I knew I was looking for something that had a one click closure option. I read through a lot of reviews and once I came upon this product I saw how many great reviews it got, so we gave it a try and have been very happy with it for both dogs. The one click closure works quickly and solved the problem we had before. This product comes with an extra security strap that runs from the nose to the head to ensure the dog can not pull the muzzle off with their paws or by rubbing it on the ground. I love this extra sense of security. It also has a loop on the bottom where the collar could run through it to ensure the dog could not pull it off that way either, but we have not had a need to use that option. I love how the dog has plenty of openings to breathe easily while wearing it and how they can easily be fed treats through it and could drink if needed with it on. Very well made design all around and a quality product. Our Great Danes are both Males and one weighs 133 and the other weighs 139. We bought Size 6 for both of them and it fits both of them great and they still have plenty of room between the end of muzzle and their nose. We did lots of treat training for 2 weeks with the muzzles before attempting to actually have them wear them. Meaning the first day we just let them sniff the muzzles and then they got a treat. Then for 1 week we would hold a treat at the end of the muzzle and the only way the dog could get the treat was to put their nose in the muzzle and get it. Then the next week we would still hold the treat at the end of the muzzle, but the difference was that we would not immediately release the treat like before. We would purposely hold the treat tighter so that the dog had to work harder to get the treat and that way they would be in the muzzle for about 3-5 seconds, just to get them used to the feeling more. Then at the 2 week mark, while still giving them a treat through it, we closed it. At first they both tried to paw and rub to get it off but we immediately said lets go for a walk and they were so distracted and excited about that that they barely messed with them after that. Then when we went on a walk a few days later they had no issues with putting them on and they only tried to mess with them once and then stopped after that while on walk. Would highly recommend this product.

I really like how sturdy the muzzle is. Even the straps have extra stitching on the edges to prevent fraying. Really excellent build quality!The cage can also be molded to custom fit your doggo with just some warm water. Combined with the adjustable straps & quality I would highly recommend for anyone with large breed dog that is reactive. 10/10 would buy again

I have two, two-year old male dogs -- an 80lb husky/pit bull mix, and a 90lb pit bull -- that have very recently decided they want to go to war over everything instead of using some manners and mutual respect to solve their issues. The most recent fight resulted in vet bills and both me and my fiance being bitten trying to utilize some bunk "throw a blanket over fighting dogs to make them stop" method from a trainer who I now realize has never even probably seen or attempted to break up a fight between two very strong, very evenly matched, pissed off pit bulls. These two have snapped and torn collars lunging at each other when they were being restrained with them. The pit bull was a stray we rescued that was obviously abused and used as a bait dog. He has some serious fear issues with humans and other dogs and muzzles are critical in teaching these two how to deal with their emotions non-violently and that there are other ways to solve problems besides being aggressive... like asking me to handle it. Which is my job as mom and pack leader. :)Like other reviews stated, the size charts are WAY off. I measured my dogs' snouts and the chart recommended a size 5 and a 6. Fortunately I went with my gut and ordered sizes 3-6 just because of the wild reviews. The pit-husky ended up in a 4 and the pit bull in a 5. The four stars is due to the difficulty in sizing. Amazon makes returns easy, but spending an extra $40 on two extra muzzles and the 30 minute drive to drop off the boxes at UPS is kind of a hassle.I like the fact that there is a loop at the bottom for the collar to go to. Neither one of my very strong boys was able to get these off, and I gave them 10 (supervised) minutes and watched as they tried very hard to get them off. Eventually they whined with frustration and stopped messing with them and were given treats. Now they are happy to put them on and don't fuss with them. The only way I can imagine a dog getting it off is if the muzzle is too big ( if its too big the dog can easily get their mouth out of the bottom) or handler doesn't put the muzzle on tight enough. You should be able to get one finger under the strap behind the ear and it should not move. No more, no less. Add in the head strap and it's not going anywhere. Others have complained about a plastic snap on the head strap, however neither one of my muzzles has a snap. The head strap is looped through the rubber so they must be making them differently now. Good construction and design. Not uncomfortable for my dogs, and the peace of mind knowing we can finally go to the dog park and out for walks without people bothering us (I have even tried yellow ribbons tied on the leashes. Kids always want to pet puppies, and it's mortifying when your huge, muscular dog greets their smiling face with raised hair on his neck and a low growl) because the muzzles themselves look a little intimidating. Nobody wants to touch a dog in a Hannibal Lector mask and that in itself helps with training. No over stimulation of my dogs and I don't have to explain why little Johnny can't touch without getting distasteful looks.

I was worried that this would not fit my black lab as most photos show different large breed snouts in the pictures, I went off some reviews with other customers stating their dog breeds for the muzzle, Figuring snout sizes. I have ordered too small or too large before and decided to try this one. It fits great for him. Not uncomfortable but solid. It works for a larger black lab dog.

it fits her so well! straps aren’t causing any rash and everything seems to be holding up. she is a very strong girl and has destroyed her first cage, a previous muzzle, and an entire bed. this muzzle seems to have her defeated. (rash on her nose is from trying to flip a metal water bowl bolted in her cage, it has since been removed)

Well made, fits well. Very, very large and clunky and you'll need to have a dog that's okay with the sheet bulk of the appliance on their face; one of ours is, one is not.
