Product Information

We put the Baskerville Ultra Dog Muzzle against a run-of-the-mill Italian basket muzzle to compare it with what else we could find on the market at a similar price. Other dogs are more fearful and timid, and can bite because they’re scared. This can commonly be the case in new surroundings, or in situations where they’re uncomfortable, such as at the vets. Make sure you get the correct size for your dog. The piece that goes across the nose mustn’t rub their eyes. How do you muzzle train your dog? Bite-proof factor: basket muzzles are generally not the best if a dog is high bite-risk because someone’s hand or a dog’s hair could still get in through the muzzle. On the other hand, this muzzle is made from harder plastic, so it probably would be enough to prevent a nip.

The Baskerville Ultra Dog Muzzle is aimed at all owners who wish to better manage their potentially dangerous, nervous or destructive dogs. In a previous post, Why You Should Have a Muzzle For Your Dog (Even If It Doesn’t Bite), we explored the different situations in which using a muzzle would be invaluable, and occasionally even necessary (hint: it’s not always about aggression!). It appears that Dr Mugford has the same sentiment, as he believes “ muzzles have done more to protect owners and their dogs than legislation ”. In addition, he states that anyone who is unsure about how their dog will respond to a new or potentially stressful situation should think about employing the use of a muzzle.Also, the Baskerville muzzle is a great fashion item for dogs these days. Should you want to give your dog something extra special, the Baskerville muzzle must be among your array of options. It just reflects your much care for your dog while protecting your pride as a responsible pet owner. It also helps with daily dog exercise.

While it’s true that a dog muzzle for biting is a popular reason, it’s not the only situation where you might choose to muzzle your dog.

If you combine a muzzle with rewards, and introduce it in low-stress situations, you should be able to easily train your pooch to be happy wearing one. Also as a newbie in the search for product ranges having seen the different sizing options, you should also pay attention to the product details as this is very necessary. A gray muzzle in a wired form is different from a gray muzzle in a plastic form. You get to know these from the product description and the answers in product info. This knowledge helps you make the best choice for your dog like a PRO having your owner peace. The 'fit' is one of the most important elements for any muzzle, and it can be difficult to get it just right. The Baskerville offers the convenience of an off-the-shelf design with the improved fit of a custom muzzle. Reviewing muzzles is hard because every dog and every situation requires a slightly different solution. Something can be a pro for one dog and con for the other one. Even when we are talking about sizing, there are different opinions on how much room the dog should have in the muzzle. The only thing that everyone agrees on is that the dog should be able to pant to cool down while wearing it. However, what pant room means can generate great arguments. If you are looking for an agitation muzzle or the muzzle will only be used for short periods, you are okay with a muzzle that provides enough room for a half-pant but if you use muzzles for hikes or canicross, it is essential to have enough room for comfortable full-pant.One was that a handful of owners couldn’t fit their pets ordinary collar through the bottom loop. Our tester dog wears a narrow rolled leather collar which afforded us plenty of space, however, if your dog wears a particularly wide collar, you may need to make other arrangements. We measured the loop to be 2 inches/5 cm long, so keep this in mind. Some dogs have to wear a muzzle in public because of legislation around their breed, even if they have no history of aggression.

A muzzle is a great multipurpose tool that allows you to enjoy spending time with your best friend and involve him in countless experiences without having to put him, or others, in danger. A basket muzzle works well when you’re intending on muzzling your dog for longer periods, such as during car rides or daily walks. If you’re concerned about your pooch hoovering foreign objects at the park without you noticing or chewing up your car seats while you pop into the pharmacy. Muzzles are a literal lifesaver while you work on training, but still need to live in the real world. Secondly, it made desensitising him to the muzzle super easy, as you could effortlessly pass treats through the large holes. This allowed us to classically condition him to having it on and create positive associations. In addition, the extra room prevented his mouth being restricted and highly sensitive nose getting repeatedly rubbed (which, of course, would have caused negative associations, contrary to what we’re wanting!).

Although muzzles should be comfortable for your dog to wear, and safe enough for them to breathe without restriction, you should never leave your dog alone while wearing one. Muzzles must only be used when your dog is supervised.The muzzle itself is made of high-quality thermoplastic rubber (TPR) which is durable and hard wearing, but also malleable and soft. This allows the muzzle to maintain its crucial basket shape, but still bend and give when necessary. In addition, the Baskerville muzzle was safe to use while swimming, as we didn’t have to worry about water logging or degradation. While not deal breakers, there are a few potential flaws we found with the Baskerville Ultra Dog Muzzle. I spent a few walks with adjusting it and trying different lengths, but Mia just hated it, and I didn’t see any advantages with Mia’s longer snout. She was happily wearing the muzzle after I removed the overhead strap. Some canine first aid kits contain material suitable for a temporary, emergency muzzle. Failing this, you could use bandages, tights or potentially even the leash, but this isn’t ideal. Home-made muzzles really should only be used when there is no other available option. Touch the muzzle to your dog’s nose, and then instantly give them a treat. You want your dog to associate the muzzle with good things happening!
