Muzzle Training:

Dogs should ideally be taught from a young age, where muzzle training can be fun, how to wear a muzzle. Any dog who is fearful or in pain, at any point in their lives, can bite.

A dog can still bite through a muzzle and there is always a chance that a dog can get a muzzle off. Muzzles do not guarantee that the dog won’t bite or cause harm.

The type of muzzle found to be easy to start muzzle training with is a Baskerville or Basket muzzle. They are available in most sizes to suit all breeds of dogs:
