Muzzling a grooming-averse dog during the grooming process will make sure that your groomer (and your pup!) get through the grooming process injury free. Some dogs just hate getting groomed-and might snap at the groomer as a result. Muzzling your dog during a medical emergency will protect you, your pup, and any emergency personnel (like vet techs) your dog may encounter while they’re getting treatment. If your dog is overwhelmed with pain or fear (for example, after suffering a traumatic injury), they might bite as a response. There are a number of situations that might require you to muzzle your dog.

So, what’s the deal with muzzles? What are they best used for? And how can you safely and comfortably incorporate them into your dog’s training? Why You Should Consider Muzzle Training Your Dogįirst things first-why would you muzzle train your dog if they’re not reactive? And the answer is this: because there’s a good chance that at some point your dog will need to wear a muzzle-and if and when that situation arises, you don’t want it to be your dog’s first time wearing one. Is it uncomfortable? Does it hurt? How can they pant or drink water when they’ve got a muzzle strapped to their face?īut the truth is, while muzzles may look a little unsettling, when used correctly, they’re actually harmless-and muzzle training your dog, even if they’re not reactive, is a must if you want to keep you and your pup safe. And there’s also the worry of how your dog might feel in a muzzle. Most dog owners thought the only reason you would ever put a muzzle on your dog is if they were at risk of biting or harming themselves, other dogs, or other people.Īnd it makes sense! Muzzles can look kind of scary. <– This deal is worth up to $120 in value if you sign up for a 12-month subscription! 🙂īack in the day, muzzle training was synonymous with reactive dogs.
