this was very helpful, in its simplicity, thank you. I am scared of my dog always seeming to find some type of cooked bone discarded in grass by the sidewalks, I always notice one half second after it's in his mouth, and commanding him to drop only makes him swallow it more quickly most times - normalize muzzles - especially in off-leash areas.
R U SERIOUS? Your dog bites you?? lol ... dont cut too much ... they use the nails all the time if properly taken care. Also ... your dog may feel he's unprotected without them ... stressing him alot. OMG this post has 3 years! that's why i love marijuana :D 🚬
My Australian shepherd, border collie mix dog has bit someone. i will be trusting this brand in hope this wont happen again. the sizes are awkward for him and confusing for me lol. hoping this will work
With my Dobermann I have the same problem. Size 5 was too big, as you said: I returned the item and went for the size 4... but it does not allow her having much room. She picks things in her mouth, so I need a muzzle while I train her not to do so (she is still an adolescent 11 months old)... I am not very happy...
I'm just wondering if the new updates for the muzzle are due to my email a few months ago. I sent you pictures of my mods to the old muzzle where i put clips on the strap instead of the belt buckle style it had previous.... if so then that's grade A work taking into account what people who use them say can help.
Same my German shepherd gets it off no matter the shape or size I would have to put a zip tie or something on the bottom so decided just to send it back
@@John-Andersonincorrect. Dogs do have sweat glands. They have two types in fact, apocrine sweat glands and merocrine (also called eccrine) sweat glands, but both only produce a very small amount of sweat which is not very effective in body cooling. All Baskerville products are designed for optimum dog comfort and welfare, allowing dogs to breathe freely, pant and drink at all times.
There may be a convergence of small details that aren't obvious and when they're alone none cause an issue. Getting the size right requires actually measuring the dogs head and snout, have you been guessing or did you use a tailors tape to get the dimensions. I tried one that used a weight and age guide for GSDs, my guy has a slightly shorter but wider muzzle and wide skull so the first two I tried couldn't get around his head! Since I tried the one, and the smaller one, I figured smaller would be in goldilock's bed right? nope. This ones ability to be molded is awesome, I wish they all could be! I have a Ray Allen leather that looks classy, but can come off because it has no collar anchor loop. It doesn't allow him to open his mouth more than ½" either and I like to let him pant away when nervous right? It looks really cool, but I can't rely on it. Anyways, maybe you could think outside the box a bit and get one to stay on? I smear peanut butter in them or can/pouch tuna, or wet food, and let him lick for as long as he will. I don't try to put it on till we've done that for at minimum a full day so 3 session of 5-15 minutes. Short, but only because he already loves the other muzzle and seems to have associated them as I hoped. This method let's me fine tune the straps with a calm sitting or down-staying dog! If he is a Houdini then he probably squirms and twists the second it's on him? You'd not have even a slight chance of fitting it well on a dog who is reluctant to wear one, I know because I worked at a bully breed rescue for a year and had to muzzle many dogs so I could give shots, trim nails, clean ears, wipe bums, brush/wash, and supervise pack play time and solo for dog-aggressive individuals. The calmer and happier they are with the muzzle the easier it is to adjust it to the pup in question, it's also a crucial safety issue for some very aggressive dogs.
There's nothing even remotely special about your dog these are shit muzzles that come off easy cute you think your dog was special in anyway though 😂😂😂😂
Didn’t come in my dogs size. Too big and it would touch her eyes. One size smaller and it would be too cramped to fit her snout yet even with that if she became extremely anxious due to reactivity she could get her bottom jaw under and get it stuck which would put her in even more of a panic. This is fully tightened down with collar loop.
Braunschweiger. It's soft & spreadable, & commonly sold in tubes. Wal-Mart probably carries it in the hot dog section. It's like Liverwurst. It's good on crackers!!
Now that I have it on him, if I even go near my dog he growls and tries to bite me. I put it on him properly but 20 minutes after i did he laid down to take a nap. I didn't intend for his first time wearing the muzzle to last for hours.
@James Justjames I don’t think they are meant to wear it for hours. I purchased another type of muzzle today from pet shop my dog isn’t happy but it stopped her barking at neighbours. I was told not to leave muzzle on dog unless dog was supervised. All the best with you’re dog you may have to invest in a behavioural specialist.
Is it safe to leave a dog alone with this on? My dog has severe separation anxiety and if I leave her alone she eats through doors and destroys everything. I can’t keep her in a cage because she breaks out of them and hurts herself. I just want to be able to go to work and not come home to thousands of dollars in damages. If anyone can help I’d appreciate any input given on the matter.
I'm sorry to hear of your situation. Though I can't help with the muzzle, I went through training for my late dog that had terrible separation anxiety. She'd howl and bark, as well as chew the entire couch up, the carpet and pad down to the bare floor, and items with my scent, such as shoes and my work bag. Based on the info from a behaviorist, I started small. If you haven't already, look online for separation anxiety. High level overview - Limited attention 15 minutes before leaving and 15 after coming home. Limited eye contact. Dispassionate coming and going in that 15 minute period. Say the same thing every time you leave. Have your dog bring their favorite item to you when you come home before giving attention (ask them, where's your "baby" or whatever you call it) so they know they need that ready and chew on that instead of other items while they wait for you. Say the same saying every time you leave, like "you be good, mama be back, mama's got to go to work". Leave and lock the door. If the dog doesn't bark, howl, or scratch, etc. immediately open the door and praise the dog. Work your way up to closing the door for more seconds, then until you can walk down the driveway, then until you can be out longer, etc. NEVER punish your dog as you may know. It will increase the anxiety. Be sure not to lavish attention prior to leaving because your dog will miss you even more nor lavish attention when you return because your dog will come to know that this wonderful reunion is going to happen. Hope this helps. May be info you already know. Worked for my dog and have been told it helps most dogs.
My dog only tried to remove it once or twice when I put it on out of pure anxiety so I gave him a quick cuddle/pat and that was all it took to de-escalate his anxiety. I get where you are coming from, and if it is a recurring problem (the dog trying to remove it) then you might want to treat it differently by giving a reward when he is relaxed with it on.
The point of the treat isn't to stop the dog from removing the muzzle. It's to try to get the dog putting their own head in the muzzle for the first few times in order to avoid a bad initial experience. Some dogs are super sensitive, and if they have a bad initial experience with something, you'll have to battle with them every time. I've used that same tactic with horses and halters. You don't want an animal that's going to grow into a 1500lb monster to hate halters.
Must be sized wrong then, or you're not using the collar attachment like it should be. My cane corso has one of these and he has no issues with it coming off.
The instructions provided with the muzzle were the same as having nothing and most of it was in a foreign language. The muzzle is not easy or seemless to put on.
I just got one and my pitbull gets it off in seconds. There a loop under for the collar , why not have one for the top as well. The way it is is useless for me. My dog wants to kill all other animals and you wanna say train your animal to keep it on. Sounds like an oxymoron to me.
Muzzles ARE training tools. Most dogs don't need them, but some absolutely do. Any trainer who thinks muzzles aren't sometimes part of the training process clearly isn't experienced enough.
This product cut and destroyed my dogs snout in less than a month. I would sue your company if I knew how. She was covered in blood every time she wore it. Terrible product

Can this be used to prevent my dog from eating things off the ground or for finding mushrooms etc on walks?
Just got one. Im so tired of getting bit everytime its time to clip nails.
my reaction to seeing this was 1, LOL, right?! 1.5, but seriously, yeah...

Does it fit long narrow snouts like greyhounds or whippets?
No doesn't fit my german shepherd with long snout very good, tried 3 doffrent sizes
Same here with my husky he manages to get out of it all the time

That's the version I have and I've had it about 3 years
Please demonstrate actually putting the muzzle on the dog.
My dog pulls it from the bottom and takes it off, how do I fix this?
Same my German shepherd gets it off no matter the shape or size I would have to put a zip tie or something on the bottom so decided just to send it back
There is the comment of using the collar loop untill the dog is comfortable. Does this mean after a while it can be used without it?
I think the loop is so they can't push it off their nose, so probably after they stop trying to do that
Dont use these collars when its hot dogs need to open there mouths to cool off because they dont have sweat glands.
@@worldpeace42069 looks like they can only open there mouths a few inchs my dog liked to open her mouth all the way

My dog is like Houdini. He gets out of it everytime. I've bought loads of them and he still escapes them.
I will like to see a video doing it
Dude my dog is the same it's fucking ridiculous
You have to train them to not do that. They don’t just do it naturally . Also try the collar strap, it’s much harder for them to get it off

that’s why you have to shape it with hot water and cool it
what size is used in this video?
Are they able to bite when the dog has it on ?
No, unless you put it on wrong!
Unless its a soft version
Yes. These are not bite proof. Just google the horror stories.
what is liver paste

@@The_Crusty_Old_Hag_Next_Door a muzzle should not be used for keeping a dog from barking........
When it's hot outside, the dog needs a bit more room to open their mouths wider I think. Any mods for that?
You can adjust it with heat
can you please show what you are clipping to when you say for extra safety clip this to ????? clip to what??????
It's the collar strap iff u don't have one then you have the old version

The head strap just slips off. This is useless. It only takes him one try before it slips over his silky ears
Same with mine 😞
Same my bullterrier took it right off
Because you idiots aren't connecting the top part to the collar it can't fall off if its connected dummy
I question the sense of giving the dog a treat to distract him from trying to take off the muzzle. Seems that may ultimately encourage that behavior.
I just got one. My dogs takes it off in seconds. Off to get my money back

Same. Is slides right off my dogs silky ears! I’m using the collar bit but the top need to attach to the collar too, like the bigger sizes.
@@helenfletcher4057 could you modify with some type of clip?
Just say No! when they start trying to get it off..dogs don"t have human emotions, such as hurt feeling. lol..worked for me
It's helpful but the dog when it goes outside it gets hot and I think it needs more room to pant
Still doesn’t explain how to correctly measure.
Chewy website tells how to measure.
