Additional fit support

Have you heard the news? The team at The Muzzle Movement has been hard at work researching our most popular Biothane colours and we are thrilled to announce some exciting new additions to our colour range! Why Light Brown? One of the top requests we received was for a brown option. After careful consideration, we are excited to introduce a beautiful light brown shade to our Biothane colour range. This versatile colour is sure to be a hit with those looking for a classic and timeless option. Introducing Magenta Pink After discovering that pastel pink and neon pink were fan favourites, we decided to introduce a new option in the pink range - the stunning Magenta Pink! This vibrant and eye-catching shade is sure to make a statement and add a pop of colour to your gear. Meet Amethyst Purple We also found out that pastel purple is a huge hit with our customers, so we wanted to expand our purple range with the introduction of Amethyst Purple. This rich and luxurious hue is perfect for anyone who loves the colour purple and wants to stand out from the crowd. Say Hello to Periwinkle While pastel blue was one of the least favourite colours, we believe that Periwinkle is a fantastic alternative. This slightly bolder shade it is versatile and stylish, making it a great choice for those looking for something different. Sage Green: Founder's Favourite Now, here's where things get personal. Our founder has a soft spot for sage green. It's calming, earthy, and just a touch whimsical - basically, it's the colour equivalent of a warm hug. So, of course, we had to add sage green to our lineup. It's a no-brainer! With these new additions to our colour range, we are confident that you will find the perfect shade to suit your style and make a statement.  Whether you prefer bold and vibrant hues or subtle and elegant tones, The Muzzle Movement has something for everyone! Discover the array of Biothane Strapping Colours next to our Basket colours to envision your perfect combination! Use the key below to identify the name of the colour.             The Lime green basket, Red basket and Azure blue basket are being discontinued! Which means, once we sell out of our current stock in sizes Sunny, Neli and Tolly, we won't be re-stocking and will be saying goodbye! So don't wait to order - once they're sold out, they are gone!         Peach has remained in the Biothane Range we offer because of popular demand. Why are we bidding farewell to caribbean green, apple green, lagune, pastel blue, violet and white from our Biothane colour range. With the introduction of our new colors, we will be bidding farewell to a few of our other colors. While Caribbean green and apple green didn't quite hit the mark with our customers, we are confident that sage green will more than make up for their absence. Similarly, lagune and pastel blue didn't see much love, but teal will remain and we are excited to introduce periwinkle as an alternative. Unfortunately, violet and white also didn't quite make the cut, so we will be saying goodbye to these colors. We will be discounting these colors and removing them as options from our website. Keep an eye out for discounted stock in these colors!

Using a Quick Clip Upgrade All muzzles are compatible with our quick clip upgrade. A question we get asked frequently is 'Are quick clips still adjustable' and the answer is yes!  The perks of upgrading to a quick release clip include:  Fast release Easy to introduce when training  Easy to close, even with cold or sore hands Looks great!  Your quick release clip will be in the same colour hardware as the rest of your muzzle.   Here we have included a video on how you can adjust the size of your strapping when you have a quick clip, to find the perfect fit for your dog!    If you adjust your quick clip and still find that the strap is too short or long, you can punch additional holes using a leather hole punch or reach out to us at Support@themuzzlemovement.com and request a shorter/longer strap.  Shop Quick Release Upgrade

How Much do our Muzzles Weigh? We get asked about how lightweight our muzzles are, and the answer is - lightweight!  We have compared all of our current muzzles, with the 25mm (12mm for small size Mia) nose band and no upgrades, so that you can take a look for yourself!                 It's hard to compare our muzzles to some other brands, because our muzzles are designed to provide your dogs with adequate pant room. So a muzzle of another brand that fits a similar dog, may be lighter because they are overall smaller due to not providing adequate room for your dog to be able to pant fully.  Weight Comparison However, we have weighted a Baskerville Ultra Size 6 and most of our muzzles are actually still lighter weight!  

Muzzle Accessories Explained You will see from our store that we have a huge selection of add-ons and accessories to buy alongside your beautiful new muzzle! In this blog, we will explain a little bit about what each item is and why you would use it! Our Muzzle Guide is perfect for coaching you through the whole muzzle training process! It's so important when using a muzzle, that your dog is fully comfortable and happy wearing it - we don't want to be just shoving the muzzle on and forcing the dog to tolerate it. (Obviously there will be some emergency situations where you may need to just get a muzzle on a dog when they aren't fully trained but this is another reason why we advocate for ALL dogs to be muzzle trained - even if they don't need one for day to day or specific use!) Our muzzle training guide explains two possible ways to muzzle train, using ONLY force-free training methods - luring and shaping, and takes you you right from first introducing the muzzle to your dog, to your dogs being able to happily wear the muzzle fully.  Our muzzle training guide is currently available as an e-guide sent to your email address. Strapping & Accessories Collars & Leads Do you LOVE matchy-matchy dog gear? Us too! That's why we provide beautiful, durable, handmade collars and leads to match your gorgeous new muzzle!  Our collars are available in two widths for small/medium and medium/large dogs and are flat buckle collars for optimal fit, comfort and security.   The leads are 2m in length to allow you dog plenty of option to move around. As you probably know by now, we love Biothane as it is stink proof, waterproof and washable, meaning these collars and leads are made for all weather, all adventures and wipe clean to look brand new! If you prefer to mix and match colours, - not a problem - you can go for a collar and lead to match the muzzle basket, the muzzle biothane strapping, or pick a contrasting colour! Long Lines We also offer 20ft Long Lines, in all our usual strapping colours. Long lines are super useful pieces of equipment - allowing your dog the freedom to roam and explore and have a feeling of 'off-lead time' whilst remaining safely under control. Long lines are ideal for using in areas where dogs must remain onlead, whilst you are training your dog's recall, for dogs who have a high prey drive/unreliable recall or even for nervous dogs who could easily be spooked. Being made of Biothane means that it doesn't matter where your dog drags the lead - muddy puddles, sandy beaches, or smelly ponds - simply rinse off and dry the lead for it to look as good as new! We advise only attaching a long line to a harness and never a collar or headcollar.    Grab Handle Does what it says on the tin - a handle which can be attached to a collar or harness for easy grabbing if needed! A grab handle is ideal for walking by busy traffic, keeping your dog close in busy areas and when training. They are also really useful in an emergency or to avoid tangled leads when playing off lead, whilst still allowing quick and easy access if needed to grab a dogs collar or (preferably) harness. Our grab handles are available in all the Biothane colours we offer for strapping. Safty Straps Safety straps are our most underrated extra gear! They can be used in multiple ways; Clipping the collar to harness for escape artists or the lead to the harness or collar for dog guardians fearful of lead malfunction. Safety straps are ideal for fearful or reactive dog and are perfect for keeping your dog safe and secure should they slip out of their harness or their walking equipment malfunctions. Muzzle Add-ons Quick Clip Upgrade Our muzzles come with a buckle fastening as standard, however when ordering you can go for a quick clip upgrade. The reason some people may prefer a quick clip is because.....they're quick to clip up! Rather than having to do up a buckle, you muzzle can simply clip to fasten. Quick clips can be really useful if your dog wears a muzzle for certain areas on walks, or the muzzle is regularly removed and put back on. It can be helpful for dogs who have handling issues around their head and ears who may find the process of a buckle being done up too stressful, or for guardians/handlers who are unable to do up a more fiddly buckle. Straps with a quick clip can still be adjusted in length: see the blog post showing you how here. Foam Nose Band Upgrade your furry friend's comfort with our Foam Padded Nose band. Perfect for sensitive noses, it provides extra cushioning and can easily be added to any of our muzzles. Each set includes the Biothane nose band, Foam padding, and Chicago screws for effortless installation. Help your pet feel at ease with our padded nose band.  To upgrade your muzzle with our Foam Padded Nose Band, simply remove your current nose band and use the Chicago screws supplied to attach the new one.  The Foam padding is black, this can't be altered. The colour you are selecting is for the colour of the biothane on top of the foam band, not the padding itself.  This product will raise your muzzle slightly and decrease pant room ever so slightly within the muzzle. If you have any concerns regarding vision or pant room this may not be the product for you. Head Strap The head strap is a strap which attaches from the top of the muzzle, over the top of the head and attaches to the strap of the muzzle. This can help to secure the muzzle and stop it from bumping around the face. It also holds the muzzle in the correct position and stops it from sliding down. It can also be helpful for shorter-nose breeds as it supports the muzzle where the dog's snout perhaps can't. The head strap can also be attached to the collar rather than the strap of the muzzle, which would act as extra security to hold the muzzle on should the muzzle strap fail. Chin Loop We can add a matching chin loop on to your muzzle, in matching Biothane to your muzzle strapping. A chin loop comes off the bottom band of the muzzle and loops through the collar to help secure the muzzle. A chin strap helps to hold the muzzle in the right position and prevent it from bouncing around on the face, and is an additional level of security.   Muzzle Stop A muzzle stop is a figure of 8 piece of Biothane that attaches from the strap of the muzzle to the collar. This stops the straps from sliding over the head for an extra level of security.   Chin Strap A Chin Strap is a length of biothane that attaches to the standard behind the ear straps and sits underneath the chin to help further secure the muzzle and prevent bouncing and wobbling.  The Chin strap is attached with chicago screws as standard so can be removed and adjusted to get a secure fit.    How to attach a Scavenger Guard Introducing our first ever Scavenger Guard, a new patent pending (2404638.5) innovative accessory for muzzle movement muzzles! A new, customisable treat hole cover that clips onto the front of the muzzle to help prevent dogs from scavenging dangerous items. Don't worry about removing the muzzle - the guard clips on and off for convenient use. Allowing you to peace of mind when walking in areas where your dog is at risk, but still allowing you to train and deliver treats in safe contexts where the scavenge risk is low.     Hopefully you now know the uses of all the extra items available to go alongside your gorgeous new muzzle...happy shopping!
