 Great product for the price Jun 15, 2010
By B. Boman
For the price, I am very satisfied with this product. This product fits my boxer very well, which is hard to find for their short snouts. His snout was exactly 10 1/2" as is recommended for this product. He has not been able to get it off, although he has not tried very hard to get it off yet. If you get this for your dog, I would recommend that you view and follow the training tips on the video on youtube called "conditioning your dog to wear a muzzle." This method works well for teaching dogs to wear any type of muzzle.
I bought this muzzle because my dog has a nervous aggression around people and other dogs. I have not tested it out with other dogs yet, but it has worked well at preventing him from nipping at people. To my suprise, it has actually calmed him down around new people. We have been doing training with him to expose him to more people, but he has still been very nervous and has occassionally nipped at our helpers. After using the muzzle to train him we were still able to let our guests give him small treats for his training, and without the fear that he would bite them. He has not even attempted to bite at our guests since we got the muzzle. Another advantage is that he is not able to bark when they come over when he is wearing this.
The only thing I was intially worried about with the muzzle was the seams on the inside of the muzzle. I was afraid that it would rub on my dogs snout and rub it raw. Thus far it has not, but the longest that we have left the muzzle on him is about twenty minutes. I would not recommend leaving this product on long term as it does not allow the dog to open his mouth wide enough to pant very well. But he is able to drink and eat small treats with it on.
Overall, I would recommend this product to someone if they are using it to restrain their dog from biting or barking for short amounts of time. For a dog that needs to wear it for longer amounts of time or will need to pant to keep cool, I would recommend looking into getting a basket muzzle that will allow the dog to pant more freely.

Fits and it works. Mar 16, 2011

Bought the size 5 for my 70 lbs shepherd/lab mix with nose circumference of 10 inches. Fit perfectly. Keeps him from getting fresh with unknown visitors and makes it very easy to clip his nails. As if he knows his "weapon" has been deactivated.

 Size matters.... Jul 20, 2010
By TheRealTruth
"RealCritic"
I'm not sure what to rate this... I never got to use it... I was seeking a good priced (cheaper than the stores) non-mesh muzzle and this one was great and even w/ shipping it was still a dollar or so less than the local pet stores. The pet stores by my house offer the mesh muzzle in S,M,L sizes... My dogs fit the medium muzzles (one 50 and one 80 pounder) but I felt the mesh might snag on their nails if they started pawing to get it off. I could not find how to figure out what size to get for my dog as these muzzles are in numbers. I searched the internet and felt the size 2 would be good for my 50 pounder. When I received the muzzle, it was waaay too small. I called the vendor and she was very nice but I could not return the muzzle as I would have had to pay for shipping it back to her and then shipping the new one to me. With all the shipping costs, it wasn't worth the return/exchange... I ended up keeping the muzzle and will donate it to someone or some place who could really use it. My advice is to call a vendor to get educated on measuring your dog's nose/mouth/head so the vendor can help you select the best fit before ordering.

Great muzzle Feb 09, 2011
By Ellie
"mittbooks"
My dog's a chewer/nipper but I hated the idea of a muzzle. This is a great compromise. It's small, not heavy and minimizes any discomfort to him, but also lets him know that he's in "time out." We've had it several months and by now just showing him the muzzle gets him to behave better. As far as muzzles go, it's light, well make and just big enough so he can open his mouth a bit and even drink water. He's a clever dog and can't get this off on his own. A great deal.

Fits great. Sep 23, 2010
By Confucious
I have a 17 month old rottweiler. I decided to purchase this and carry it just in case I need to use it while taking him out in the public. It is light weight and you can pack it away anywhere. It fits great on him and it is fast and easy to use. Haven't had a problem with the muzzle coming off. The muzzle seems like it will last and not fall apart which is great considering it is not the higher end, more expensive muzzles you see at the pet stores.
