Check out various muzzle sizes and instructions
on how to measure your dog's nose. 

Muzzle Warning -
If you train with or use muzzles you need to read this!

These heavy-duty chrome muzzles are imported from Germany. This muzzle is a top quality product, unlike anything available in the United States.

** It is VERY important that you give your dog enough room to pant while wearing the muzzle. The measurements given above are the ACTUAL measurements of the muzzle itself. You need to be sure of TWO things before you choose your muzzle size.

FIRST: The muzzle CAN NOT be LONGER than your dog’s actually “nose length”. If the muzzle is longer than your dog's nose length, the muzzle will be in the dog's line of vision.

SECOND: The muzzles " circumference" MUST be LARGER than your dogs "nose circumference." We recommend between 1 -3 inches larger than your dogs measurement. If the muzzle is the exact same size as your dogs nose, the dog won't be able to pant. It's mouth won't even be able to open.

If you are unsure of the size to choose, measure your dog then call our office and we will do our best to help you decide the best style and size of muzzle for your dog.

This is an excellent muzzle for people who have dominant dogs. These dogs need a muzzle to protect the handler during compulsive obedience training. This muzzle allows excellent airflow. There is enough room for the dog to drink with the muzzle on.

Product: Wire Basket Muzzle

I have used your wire basket muzzle on a 3 year old foster rottweiler, Spencer, that has extreme fear-based aggression to people. Your staff helped me pick the correct size, and were very pleasant. It took only a couple uses before Spencer completely accepted the muzzle. Now, when let out of the crate, he will raise his front feet off the floor to put his nose into the muzzle! He knows he will only be allowed to be loose in the house with the muzzle on, and seems to look forward to it! It is excellent quality, worth twice the price. Actually priceless, considering the safety of everyone here. Thank you for such a quality product!

Product: Wire Basket Muzzle

Hello Ed and Cindy,
I use one of these muzzles for my Bouviers French Ringsport muzzle exercises. It is still in remarkably good shape after 7 years; I want to thank you for continuing to carry them. I have a client who is looking for a muzzle and this is where I have directed him.

Jeff and Staff-

I wanted to say thanks for carrying your wire-basket muzzle. I received it a couple of weeks ago and it fits LT. Colby "Jack" Cheese great. I wanted a muzzle that was open to allow him breath and one that did not have a center strap between his eyes. The muzzle fits him great and it also allows him to drink. I've been able to take him to the dog park and he has already learned not to snap at other dogs to keep out of the muzzle as he was very excited before and played a little too rough with the other dogs.

Thanks again,
Henry

A while back, I ordered your boxer muzzle and a dominant dog collar for a rescue boxer that we acquired. When we got her she was very ill. I was working toward integration, using your techniques. I was able to put some weight on her, and work on her basic obedience. A wonderful home opened up for her, and we let her go.

Long story short, the new owners felt they were doing her an injustice by leaving her home alone so much, although they spoiled her rotten. Today they returned her to us. When they got her, she heeled beautifully at my side. I had worked hard on this. Tonight, we started off for our walk, and she was a different dog. They have obviously walked her on a retractable, and let her have her way. She is now healthy and strong, and the walk was a battle that I am not accustomed to, as my dogs have always heeled well.

As soon as I got back to the house, I located her dominant dog collar, and we walked again… it was amazing! With no correction (she did that herself), she is once again heeling at my side, and walking like the dog that I gave to them. I am a true believer. They forgot her muzzle, but are sending it to me asap.

I will be ordering another collar and muzzle. I have a dog that for some reason I didn’t think about using your techniques on. Today the light bulb came on, and I am going to solve HIS issues starting with him. My original plan was to muzzle Rox, but I realized today that I am not confronting the issues. Mikey, a 3 year old cocker/Chihuahua, needs your training methods. Small dog or not! I do not know at this point whether I will ever let all three of my dogs out together. I realize the pack issues come into play. Our third dog is a nine year old maltese, a very good dog with no issues at all, dog or human. I don’t know how much longer he will be with us, but intend to let him live out his time as he has.

I would like someday to be able to put Mikey and Rox in the same room. I believe Rox to be fine. She has shown no dog, human, or other aggression at all. So PsychoMikey will be getting a new muzzle of his own, and I will be working even harder with him.

Thank you for the wonderful site, again.

Sincerely,
Donna

Several years ago you sold me a muzzle for my GSD. I needed help with the sizing, and you guys were great. Well, it has been about 5 years now, and this muzzle has withstood the test of time.

With your help we managed to achieve a perfect fit. I will let you know if I need help with my next muzzle fitting.

This muzzle was a great purchase and has seen a lot of use. You really can't beat a properly fitted and comfortable muzzle. Here's a picture of my GSD girl so you can see (BTW her nose is *not* squished against the end, it is just very close...)

Thanks again for your help,
Sarah

I bought a wire muzzle for my chow chow a while ago and I just wanted to let you know how wonderful it is. I've been able to take him to dog parks on a leash. When other dogs approach him I have the protection and confidence that I was looking for. Most importantly he's getting the benefit. Your web site on how to measure for it and how to introduce a muzzle to a dog was also terrific. I will definitely buy from you again. When I sent you an email with questions I appreciate the fact that you got back to me in a timely manner.

Thank you,
Sonja

I bought a muzzle from you for my male pit bull and it is wonderful. He never has fought to get it off, in fact he does not act like he even has it on! I am now able to socialize him without worrying that it is going to end in a fight. Shadow was mauled when he just turned a year old. Since then he gets testy around other dogs,but when I took him to the dog park he acted like the old Shadow. I socialized him since the day I got him and he was doing great, now he is back on the right track.

Thank you all so very much,
Patti

Dear Ed,

I received the basket muzzle I ordered from you and your request for a picture of my dog wearing it. As is the case for all of your products, the quality is outstanding. I ordered the cocker spaniel size for my Weimaraner puppy who is 6 months old. He has developed a nasty habit of eating rocks and is currently recovering from abdominal surgery a week ago to remove a large one from his small intestines. It only took 3 days (and a good amount of steak tips) in order for him to accept it. He now ignores the fact it is on.

Please feel free to use this picture, if it is what you are looking for. You will notice he has a leerburg leather collar too :)

Even though he is only a puppy, it is only a bit large and he should be able to wear it as an adult. I have never had a dog that used a muzzle and so I hope I have adjusted it correctly. From the photo it looks as if it could be a bit snugger, but he is not able to get it off.

Thank you for your fantastic website and products!

Good afternoon,

Recently I ordered the pit bull wire muzzle (product #700-7) from your website and I received it last night in the mail.

I had to simply send you an email thanking you for making such an excellent product. Both my husband and I were extremely impressed with the quality, make and fit of the muzzle and we are so glad that we stumbled across your site and made the purchase.

Within our home Province of Ontario there is a breed ban against pit bulls and that therefore means anything associated with pit bulls is extremely hard to find within pet stores. We searched high and low for a proper wire muzzle and when we moved to Alberta the search became even harder. When we did randomly stumble upon something semi-suitable it was a plastic cage with sharp edges and low quality production selling for about $80 (Canadian). We didn't purchase it and our pit bull wore a nylon muzzle for a period of time, something we both knew would not do.

Until now!

I am more than impressed with the quality and craftsmanship I received yesterday, at a very good price as well. I will make sure to recommend you to all those who need dog products (pit bull or otherwise) and you have won over two loyal customers who thought all hope was lost for pit bulls and their owners.

Thanks once again! I hope this email reaches the tops of your company and everyone in between.

Stephanie, Kevin and Butters (the dog)

Mr. Frawley,

We received the muzzle we ordered yesterday for our Am. Bulldog (Booger). It’s the Female-Pit Bull style. That was the only one that matched the size of our dog, even though he’s a male. It’s much better quality than the one we had used previously. I’ve included a couple pictures of him with it on.

Thanks very much.
Heinz

Ed

This letter is long over due and I hope you add it to your discussion page about dog fights. There is no one out there that tells it the way it really is other than you. Please keep up the spirit and commitment to the dog world that you have. For those of you out there that think Ed is the big bad wolf you should realize, gray does not exist in Ed's world and neither does it exist in your dogs.

I own two of Ed's dogs Ulanda Vom Leerburg "Kitara" and Janna Vom Leerburg "Madeline." I have owned GSD all my life or at least I thought I did till I became a true Leerburg follower. Kit is my personal dog and is trained in personal protection. She will swallow any part of your body and not let go till commanded. Madeline is my wife's dog and she too is the same; her hold is weaker but her rush will stop your heart.

Well, everything was fine till Madeline turned two, then the s**t hit the fan. Oh, did I not say these are both female dogs, sorry. Madeline would always submit to Kit and the fight was relatively easy to break up. Well Mad Dog Madeline turned two and decided it was time to fight back. Breaking these fights up became increasingly harder. Kit was not about to back down and Madeline would not give up. Needless to say I tried everything, all types of muzzles, and none of them worked or would be tolerated buy Kit. She, by the way, is my fight picker and was the one I tried to control. Given the fact she spends 24 hours of the day with me and is bonded like Velcro, she is the one needing restraint. Yes, she does think she is my beta, however she will work for my wife, but not with the same edge.

So my good wife says one day, "Have you been to Leerburg's site recently?" I hadn't so she says, "Check out the addition to the dog bite-fight section." So, like a dutiful husband I go, well there are the stories and a picture of the most perfect muzzle you could ever want. Kitara wears hers with great contentment and our life has gone from three dog fights a week to none.

The point of this whole letter is for you guys out there that are like me, and not wanting to disarm your dog, these muzzles are the best. Teach your dog to drink and eat with it on. Now when I say eat I mean feed them a few biscuits through the edge wire. This way they are not concerned with it being a death sentence to wear. We do have a few scuffles every now and then, but Madeline being the gracious omega that she is. Now not getting tagged and ripped she won't return the aggression by biting back. Interesting isn't it Ed? Madeline is much softer than Kit and is not interested in taking over Kit's spot in the pack order.

Another point I might add is before both dogs roamed the house free at night. Now we crate Madeline and unmuzzle Kit and she rooms free. God help the sob that breaks in and gets tagged by her.

Well that about ends my story. Thanks to Ed and Leerburg's web site peace has been restored to my life. Until the day I die will own one of Leerburg's dogs. They make all the rest seem.....well, kind of dumb. I had my girls to the vets the other day and the vet remarked she had never seen such a perfect example of the breed. Keep it up Ed you make us all very proud dog owners.

On 11/22 your helpful Telephone Person listened to my Standard Poodle's muzzle measurements and suggested Cocker and Bull Terrier wire muzzles

Both fit perfectly. So perfectly that Benedict, my SP, accepted both without fuss, and has been wearing them -- one at a time -- also without fuss. (Yes, he is a tolerant dog, but he HATED the Halti.)

Although Benedict has tried to munch his way around the house wearing the muzzle, so far he has not picked up anything to precipitate another culinary disaster.

Thanks!

I wanted to write you and tell you how satisfied I am with your chrome basket muzzles. I have a dog that used to be very aggressive towards other animals and people. I was working her in a muzzle in public with limited success, because she was too busy trying to get out of the muzzle. I tried every muzzle on the market, and none worked. They irritated her too much, and she fought constantly. Finally, a friend recommended your chrome muzzle, so I ordered one. To my surprise, she accepted it right away, and never tried to fight it. It is relay comfort abel for her to wear for long periods of time, and can even drink with it on, and eat training treats (freeze dried chicken). I hope that you continue to offer such quality products at such great prices.

Thank you,
Sequoia Kennel

Ed,

We received the wire-basket muzzle recently. What a terrific product. It took Luger only a few hours to get used to it. He is very comfortable wearing it and takes naps often with it on and seems very relaxed. I highly recommend this product. Its worth every penny.

Hello Mr. Frawley,

Yesterday I received the wire basket style muzzle I ordered for my large, dominant, muzzle /veterinarian hating rottweiler 'Mo.'

I put the muzzle on Mo and he didn't try to pull at it at all . In fact he didn't seem to notice that it was even on. The muzzle exceeded all my expectations and I had some high expectations for a product coming from Leerburg. The price of the muzzle was decent too. I'm sure it cost far less than stitching up the veterinarian. The true test will come when I take Mo the vet. and the good Dr. tries to examine his eyes, that always seems to set Mo off, that and coming at him with a syringe.

I have also watched the two tapes I ordered with the muzzle. Basic Dog Obedience and Building Drive Focus & Grip with Bernard Flinks. These tapes offer allot of great, easy to follow training and assessment information that I can't wait to try out. Of course I will watch the tapes another time or two just to make sure I have a firm grip on the concepts, then I will review them through out training just to make sure I'm getting it right. I think its more a matter of training me than my dog.

I've been reading through the articles on your web site and I enjoy every bit of it..... the good, the bad, and the ugly. Keep up the good work.

Best Regards,
Ray

Hello Ed,

I just received the wire cage muzzle that you recommended and you were right, it is the best muzzle that I have ever seen available (in stores or on the internet). My dog hates all the other ones I tried on him (so do I) but he would let me put this wire cage muzzle on without much fuss. And I know this is the muzzle that suits him the best (for running).

Excellent products!!! This is the third muzzle I've purchased from your company.

Hello Ed,

I received the German made muzzle I ordered from Leerburg just the other day. My male shepherd adjusted to it within a few minutes and I couldn't have been more pleased with the result. I only wish that I had the sense to order this sooner, one bite later and a few too-close-to-call attempts at attacking others; people that is. My dog wears this muzzle on all of his walks and whenever I have guests in our home. It has put my mind at ease big-time and people have remarked that they appreciate it too.

Thanks again,
ReBecca
