It needs to be said the wrong way to condition a dog to wearing a muzzle is to simply put a muzzle on the dog and put the dog in a dog crate, a dog kennel., or the back of a squad car and force it to get used to the muzzle.

Will that work? "YES" , but it will do damage the relationship with your dog and it very well could end up damaging the muzzle because this stresses the dog so much the non-stop salivate, which then soaks the muzzle. It's like taking a leather muzzle and putting it in a bucket of water.

If your a new police K9 handler learn how to properly condition a dog to wearing a muzzle. If you donl;t want to take the time it takes do do it correctly, then purchase one of our polymer coated muzzles and force the dog to wear that muzzle. It's not what we would do but when it salivates like crazy its not going to hurt the muzzle.

MADE IN THE USA

Leerburg leather products are works of art.

The cow hides used to make all of Leerburg's leather are hand-selected for Leerburg before tanning. We need and use the thickest hides available. Our hides go through over 85 steps in a tanning process that takes over a month. There are many types of Latigo leather that are made in Mexico, India, or Pakistan, but none can compare to the quality of Leerburg’s Latigo leather.

Once tanned, our Leerburg Leather is delivered to the Amish family that crafts our leather products right here in Wisconsin. Our 4 Amish craftsmen have been making Leerburg leather products since 1990.

WARNING

There are several Facebook groups run by well-intentioned people who are telling dog owners to get these HUGE, HUGE muzzles. These folks claim these monster-sized muzzles allow a dog more room to pant, but fail to take several important factors into account. Poorly fitting, oversized muzzles come off far too easily--making this downright dangerous advice, especially if you have a reactive or aggressive dog.

The last thing someone in this position wants or needs is for a muzzle to come off their dog when it is needed the most. Our advice is to be very careful about listening to people who lack experience with aggressive dogs.
