Leather dog muzzles will allow your pet to feel free enough. High-quality leather straps will not give your dog an ability to harm others.

Convenient system of adjustment allows you to take off or put a muzzle on rather quickly, and makes it sit tight on a dog.
Metal dog muzzles will be of use for the owners of "serious" dogs. Our metal muzzles are equipped with additional leather, thick felt or Nappa padding that protects the dog's skin from rubbing. Made of stainless steel wire, metal muzzles can serve you for a long time and will be the tool to prevent your dog from doing stupid things.

Choosing a dog muzzle, remember that your pet will have to wear it for a long time. That is why, with such diversity of forms, colors and types, it so difficult to make a final choice.
Very often online stores offer cone-shaped models. This is absolutely uncomfortable, because a muzzle should fix the foreface of a dog, but not tie it up.
It is better to look for a muzzle in a form of cylinder. This form will allow a dog to open his mouth slightly and extrude the tongue.
Dog muzzles are made of different materials. The most common are: leather, metal, nylon and plastic.
Muzzle shapes can be also different: basket ("cage-like"), solid and loop-like.
Leather basket (cage) muzzles are ideal for non-aggressive dogs. Being made from durable leather straps, such muzzles allow a dog to breathe with his tongue hanging out.
Leather dog muzzles do not weigh much.
Plastic dog muzzles are even lighter, but in the cold weather and in case of blow such muzzles crack. The use of plastic muzzles is reasonable if your dog takes part in racing, where every extra gram is crucial.
Choosing a leather dog muzzle it is better to determine what type of material you want. They can be made of genuine leather or leatherette.
Dog muzzles made of leatherette are less expensive, but will serve you much shorter period of time.
Genuine leather is much more durable and will serve you long. And, of course, it is more expensive.
Also you should pay attention to the rivets which fix the straps. You need to check them carefully whether they have any burrs, and made of a high quality metal. Pay close attention to the method of fastening of a muzzle. If the dog is accustomed to a muzzle and does not try to dislodge it permanently, one strap muzzle will be good for him. Otherwise it is better to use models with a strap on a forehead.
If the dog is aggressive, or agitation training is performed, then a wire cage dog muzzle is used. It is recommended to use such type of a muzzle when temperature is above zero, because in winter the dog's tongue or skin can freeze to the metal.
To protect your dog from such unpleasant feelings one can buy a metal muzzle with heat insulation material.
But pay attention that such muzzles are heavy, so their use is reasonable only in exceptional cases.
Front metal cage (sometimes double) performs rather a decorative function. Sometimes it can prevent the dog from picking up garbage from the ground. If you decide to buy a metal muzzle with front cage, make sure that the bars are vertical. Then there will be less probability that your dog can break his teeth on them. One should also remember that metal muzzles for dogs have a disadvantage. When a dog hits, it can cause an injury not only to the object of aggression, but also to the dog himself. Again, the metal dog muzzles should only be used for large and aggressive dogs.
Solid dog muzzles are made of leather or synthetic material. This is an intermediate model between metal and leather muzzles made in a form of basket. Even an aggressive dog will find it difficult to bite in such a muzzle. Unlike metal one, this type of muzzle cannot cause injury to the dog. But it is not recommended to keep your dog with such muzzle on when hot days (you probably know that a dog controls his body temperature through tongue). The only advantage of a solid muzzle - is its lighter weight in comparison with metal muzzles.
Recently, there have appeared a lot of nylon (or other synthetic material) dog muzzles. They have a loop-like form - the so-called "bear-loop". Muzzles of this type are normally fastened with the help of Velcro. They are very good to be used if you need to travel with your calm and patient dog by public transportation in accordance with law requirements. Also it can be used when visiting a vet or friends.
When choosing a muzzle, remember, that you buy it for your dog, not for yourself. It should be, first of all, comfortable but not beautiful.
