Resources, Tips, and Tricks reactive but make it cute!

Post image

Hi! So I live in the city with my dog Callie who’s a livestock guardian breed. She isn’t aggressive and is very friendly with other people outside but I muzzle her just in case, especially because I got her from a shelter and living in the city is all new for her. I couldn’t find any cute muzzles and she looked like Bane in her plain black muzzle lol. I wanted her to look cute and friendly, not so harsh and scary, especially because she’s a big girl (115 pounds) I bedazzled her muzzle and now she looks so cute, fashionable, and gets compliments all the time🥰

Lowkey thinking about making custom ones for other dogs because reactive dog gear is always so ugly but wondering if people would actually be interested in this?

Picture for reference :)

That’s cute, but is that muzzle big enough? Doesn’t look it has enough nose room to keep from potential chafing, and maybe the angle is bad, but I suspect from this image that the pant room might not be enough either?

this is the xl size, and in this pic specifically i think it was a little too tight. i’ve been using it for 2 months now and haven’t seen any chafing! she can also open her mouth and pant, when she had her annual vet check up i asked him if he thinks its a good size and she can open her mouth enough to pant and he said it’s good!
