Blake would only ever be wearing it in this situation temporarily for around 20 mins and only when absolutely necessary. If he was exposed to the muzzle with training he would happily except one in the future without any fuss or stress to him. We started to muzzle train our Patterdale Terrier for several reasons. Firstly, he started to get a bit nippy with other dogs and was muzzled at doggy daycare! Secondly, we are considering travelling or moving abroad. Thirdly, we started to realise that there would be some exceptional circumstances such as the vet where he might need muzzling and if he was trained to take a muzzle it would minimise his stress.

The two main types of muzzle available on the market are the mesh or cage muzzles which allow the dog to open his mouth and pant as normal while guarding the teeth behind a sturdy barrier- and strong nylon fabric muzzles which are cone shaped and fit snugly over the nose and mouth to prevent the dog opening his mouth at all.

You should never seek to muzzle your dog for an extended period of time- always think of your dog and his comfort, and of course, remember to remove the muzzle frequently to allow your dog to drink water, and to eat.

One big reason why many owners may look for a muzzle for their dog is if they chew or eat things which they shouldn’t when on a walk. You may want to allow them a bit of freedom to run off the lead, but can’t risk them doing so without ensuring they won’t eat whatever they find.
