Muzzles
How do I know which muzzle to order?
If you need further support with sizing please reach out to support@themuzzlemovement.com including photos of your dogs measurements.
What do the size names mean?
All of our muzzles are named after dogs that we have loved or that have made a big impact on us in some way!
We've chosen to name our sizes rather than assign numbers. This approach helps us manage future size releases smoothly; for instance, if we introduce new, smaller sizes, what is currently 'size 2' might become 'size 4' to prevent confusion down the line. Naming them simply avoids this potential mix-up and honours the dogs we love!
If you want to know more about the dogs each muzzle is named after - check out our blog postWhat are the muzzles made of?
The basket of the muzzles are made from injection-molded polyethylene (plastic) which is a very common plastic, used to make everything from food containers to replacement knee joints!
The strapping is made of biothane, which is PVC coated webbing, if you want to read more about how we make muzzles you can do so here.Are the muzzles ‘bite-proof’?
Are the muzzles scavenge proof?
No but you can add a scavenger guard to your muzzle for this!
Due to the treat hole in the front of the muzzle, our muzzles are not suitable to prevent dogs from scavenging without our scavenger guard which clips onto the front of the muzzle. We have regular Scavenger Guards and Extra Secure Scavenger Guards available.
You can purchase a scavenger guard here
CAN I REQUEST A CUSTOM SIZE?
The colours and any accessories attached to your muzzle are customisable.
Can I boil and reshape the muzzle?
We have a how-to video here.
Will you have more sizes in the future?
Yes, you can read more here about our upcoming sizes and pre-order sizes, here.
We are continuously working on expanding our range of sizes and are committed to becoming fully size-inclusive. Each new size undergoes a thorough design and testing process before it's made available for pre-order. Our aim is to ensure we can offer options that cater to a wide variety of face shapes.
How do you return or exchange a muzzle that doesn't fit?
You can read more about our returns policy here.
Can you size based off my current muzzle?
Due to the unique shape of our muzzles we are unable to compare them to the measurements of regular muzzles.
However, we also understand that in some cases it is just not possible to get measurements and if this is the case please email us at support@themuzzlemovement.com or take a look at our guide for alternative measuring methods here and we will be more than happy to help.
Can my dog pant fully whilst wearing the muzzle?
We understand how important it is for a dog to be able to pant in a muzzle, and you can read more about this here in our muzzle fit blog.
If you want to know more about how to measure in order to get a muzzle with adequate pant room you can find our measurement recommendations here.
Are the muzzles covered by a warranty?
In the rare event that a metal or plastic component fails, it will be repaired free of charge or replacement hardware/Basket will be mailed.
All required shipping to/from our workshop for gear to be repaired is at buyer's expense.
Please note that the finish on plated metal hardware components can wear with use and change colour over time - this is normal and not covered by the hardware warranty. The warranty does not cover muzzles purchased second hand, proof of purchase will be required.
For safety purposes, dogs should always be supervised while wearing collars and muzzles and all fittings should be inspected regularly. For more information on how to proceed with a warranty repair, or read our terms and conditions please visit Hardware warranty.Muzzle accessories
Why would you add a head or chin strap?
Adding an extra point of attachment can help to further secure the muzzle. The need for additional security can vary depending on the individual dog. Some of the additional straps are designed to be detachable and/or adjustable, so you can remove them if you find they are not needed.
You can read more about our different accessories and their purposes here.
Why upgrade to chicago screws?
We have a how-to video on using chicago screws here.
Please note - Chicago screws can sometimes gradually come undone over time, therefore you must regularly check to ensure that they are still secure. Alternatively, once you have your ideal fit or colour combination, you can 'loc-tite' your chicago screws closed. We have a video to help you with this here.
