Episode 30: Muzzles Enhance Well-Being


Listen Later

What comes to mind when you see a dog wearing a muzzle?

Chances are, we already have a good idea of your response. Unfortunately, muzzles often carry a negative stigma in our culture—despite being incredibly valuable tools for promoting safety, freedom, and overall well-being in dogs.

In this episode, Emma and Kirsten address common misconceptions about muzzles and explain why they deserve a more positive reputation. They’ll guide you through the different types of muzzles, their appropriate uses, and how to begin the process of muzzle acclimation.

Tune in to gain a fresh perspective and practical insights on this often misunderstood topic.
