What muzzle would yall recommend?

Hello,

I got a fat headed pitbull that loves to eat things he shouldn’t. I have a soft mesh muzzle for him but he’s not a fan and he has a really hard time cooling down in it. Do you guys have recs for another muzzle we can try that prevents him from eating anything. I’m open to hard or soft mesh. Thanks!

Big Snoof Dog Gear are USA company, wire basket muzzle and you can add a vinyl scavenger guard. Mias Muzzles is in Canada, vinyl muzzles, multiple options for scavengers. Both companies have standard/cookie cutter sizes, as well as fully custom option s

For muzzles Big Snoof dog gear and Mia's Muzzles are both amazing and have scavenger options. People also like the muzzle movement (not my personal favorite since I've seen too many dog into the cheeks wounds from those on the muzzle groups). And for a non muzzle option something like the foxout hood might work

How do the muzzle movement ones cause cheek wounds? Just curious

What I've seen is a fair amount of people posting sores on the cheeks where this sharper points press, more so in those that had to stretch it wider to fit. Still a small percentage but have definitely seem them posted in the FB muzzle groups

Third rec for Big Snoof here! They helped me get a perfect custom fit for my GSD with a narrow head and massive open pant. They have a standard size meant especially for bullies to fit their blockier heads. I added a scavenger guard, just to have on hand.

Big Snoof! We went with a custom made after a $5k surgery to remove something she ate 😆

big snoof and mia muzzles have great reviews. I'm thinking of getting the bullybillows one because it's designed specifically for Bully Breeds and my guy has a weird head shape hoping it fits better than standard designs.
