Basket Dog Muzzle Sizing

How to choose the correct size Dog Muzzle.
For the Italian Baskets, Wire Baskets and Ultra Dog Muzzles.
Your dog MUST have enough room to pant & open his mouth when the dog muzzle is on.
The dog muzzle circumference must be larger than your dogs snout measurement.
If your dogs snout is the exact same size as the dog muzzle, your dog will not be able to open his mouth to pant & drink water.
You must measure your dogs snout and follow the instructions for sizing your dog.
How does my dog drink water with a basket dog muzzle on??
For most basket dog muzzles, the dog should be able to put his snout in a water bowl and lap the water up from inside the basket muzzle.
Drinking water is something that your dog will have to figure out on his own.
Please use common sense when using any dog muzzle.
Getting a dog used to a dog muzzle takes time and patience.
You will need to gradually introduce the dog to the muzzle.
How long the dog is left unsupervised while muzzled is up to you, the dog owner.
