Leather
dog
muzzles allow your pet to
feel himself freely enough. At the same time
high quality leather straps will not allow your dog to harm
surrounding people. A distinguishing feature of leather muzzles
is that they don't harm your pet if he hits his muzzle.
Leather material will not harm
while walking in the cold. A comfortable system of
buckles will permit
to put a
muzzle on and off quickly, firmly holding it on dog's
snout.
Metal dog muzzles will
be useful for owners of "serious" dogs. Our metal muzzles are
equipped with an additional
soft
thick
felt padding, which
protects him from rubbing. Made of high quality
steel wire
our muzzles will
serve you for a long period of time. They will be a
reliable way to prevent a dog to do stupid things.
You can also get
metal
muzzles
with a heat insulation material. Such
muzzles are made for
walking
your pet when it's extremely cold.
We do advise you not to put it on your dog when it's hot
outside.
Buying a muzzle in our store you are guaranteed to receive a
necessary
high quality supply,
which will not harm your dog.
Choosing a muzzle for your dog, please remember that your
English Bulldog will have to wear it for a long period of time.
That's why (although the online stores offer muzzles for dogs of
different shapes and types) it's so difficult to choose the
right one.
Cone-shaped models of muzzles are offered very often. They are
rather uncomfortable, because a muzzle should "lie" on the dog's
foreface, not press it. Look for
a cylinder-shape muzzle.
This form
will allow your
domestic animal to open his mouth slightly and to hang out his
tongue.
Muzzles for dogs are made of different materials. The most
common are made of leather, metal, nylon and plastic. The shape
of dog muzzles can be different: basket, with closed front part
and loop-like.
Leather basket dog muzzles
are ideal for non-aggressive dogs. Made of durable leather
straps these muzzles allow a dog to breathe and to hang out his
tongue.
Leather dog muzzles are
light enough as well.
Plastic muzzles weigh less, but in cold weather and in case of
hitting such muzzles can crack. The use of plastic muzzles is
justified if your Bulldog takes part in racing, where
every gram is important.
Choosing a leather muzzle, you need to determine the material.
Leather muzzle is a muzzle made of full grain genuine leather
and leatherette. Muzzles, made of artificial leather cost less,
but they will serve you less as well.
Genuine leather is much more durable and will serve for
a long period of time. Although it is more expensive.
An attention is to be paid to the rivets with a help of which
straps are connected. You need to check carefully if they have
any burrs, and whether they are made of high quality metal.
Please also pay attention to the way of muzzle fastening. If a
dog is accustomed to a muzzle and does not try to put it off
permanently, it is enough a
muzzle
to
have one strap. Otherwise it is better to use
muzzle
with
a strap on dog's forehead. If the dog is
aggressive, or training for the development of anger is held,
then use dog
muzzles made of
wire. It is recommended to use them in warm weather
because in winter dog's tongue or skin can freeze to metal. To
protect your dog from this you can buy a metal muzzle with a
heat insulation material. But these muzzles are heavy enough, so
their use is appropriate only in exceptional cases.
Front metal cage of the muzzle
(sometimes it is double) performs rather a decorative function
than some specific option. But sometimes it
can prevent
dogs to pick up trash from the ground. If you decide to
buy a wire cage muzzle make sure that
the bars are vertical. In such case it lessens
the chance that your four-legged friend will break his teeth on
the wire cage. It also should be noted that metal dog muzzles
have one nasty feature. In case a dog hits with his muzzle it
can cause injury not only to an object of aggression, but also
to the dog himself.
Remember that
metal muzzles
should be only used
for big and
aggressive dogs.
Closed-shape dog muzzles
can be made of leather or synthetic material. This is an
intermediate model between metal and
leather muzzles of basket-form. In such muzzle
even very aggressive dogs will find it difficult to bite. Unlike
metal cage ones, this type of muzzle
can hardly cause an injury to a dog. But when
it's hot outside, don't leave this muzzle on your pet for a long
time (you do know that a dog controls body temperature with the
help of tongue). The only advantage of solid-shape muzzle is
that such muzzle is lighter than metal one.
Recently, nylon (or other synthetic material) and leather
muzzles which have a
form of a loop - the so-called
"bear-loop" muzzles
have appeared. Muzzles of this type often can be equipped
with "Velcro". They are very good in use if you
need to travel with your calm dog in a public places, observing
all law requirements and prescriptions.
This type of muzzle can also be used for vet/friends
visiting.
When choosing a muzzle, remember that you buy it for your
English Bulldog but not for yourself, and it should be first of
all
comfortable and
only then
beautiful.
