Full Question:
I've been looking at your muzzles and thinking about getting one for my GSD. And although not a real problem now, I was wondering how the wire muzzle would work during the winter months. Wouldn't the dog's tongue and/or nose stick to the wire in cold weather? If the dog drank while wearing the muzzle, is there any problem with ice freezing on the muzzle or on the dog? Are these unjustified concerns?Thanks,
Doug
Cindy's Answer:
This is the first time anyone has ever asked this. We have sold literally thousands of these wire basket muzzles to customers all over the world and no one has ever reported this to be a problem or concern. Most of the wire muzzles have a plastic insert/guard at the end of the muzzle to help the nose not to touch the wire. In regards to licking, I guess that would be a possibility; especially if the dog were licking the sides of the muzzle or panting and hanging their tongue so that it touches the wire.
If you are concerned of potential problems, I would suggest going with the Jafco Plastic Muzzle instead.
