Description

Muzzles are stigmatized, because they are often associated with dogs who are aggressive. But the truth is, dogs wear muzzles for many reasons. Muzzles can give dogs more freedom, humans more peace of mind, and a safer community for all to live in. 

In this episode, I talk with Amy Creaven, owner of Trust Your Dog, a company that makes custom biothane products to expand your dog's world. We dive into all aspects of muzzles and training including:

  • How to ensure your muzzle is bite proof
  • Muzzle training hacks anyone can do
  • How to ensure a proper fit
  • Options for brachycephalic dogs
  • What to do with dogs who resource guard their muzzles
  • And so much more!

About Amy:

Amy is a recovered registered nurse, a Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner who worked with reactive dogs prior to the pandemic, and now a custom muzzle maker. She lives at home with her family, 3 chaos floofs, and a harem of chickens.
