Did she always have them or did they start after something/some time? Do antihistamines clear the problem?
Muzzle size?
-
I have to buy a basket/cage muzzle for an upcoming appointment Oakley has and I was wondering if anyone had a good recommendation for a brand? I'm looking at the Guardian Gear muzzle, I have to measure Oakley but I was wondering generally what size muzzle they take?
-
My Cosmo has one and it's a Size 1. It fits her comfortably and she doesn't mind the few times I put it on her (with treats, of course
).

So I measured Oakley and his length is 3" and circumference is 8….
And guardian tells you to add 1" to small/medium breeds..would you deduce an xs?Muzzle Size * *Muzzle Width * * * Snout Circumference

I have that type also. But I have the mesh too which I think is a bit cooler.
I went to look and mine says size 4 so not much help as I don't know the brand, pretty sure got at pet smart.

I guess that size works. Cosmo has the same snout measurement as Oakley.
On Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Guardian-Lined-Nylon-Muzzle-2-Inch/dp/B000RRM4GO), that brand you mentioned had this image: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61T-R21S12L.SX355.jpg

I hope it fits, I ordered it and he needs to have it in order to attend a doctors appointment on the 30th…if it doesn't fit I will ask the vet to borrow one... I don't dislike the mesh, but I feel like the basket muzzle gives a better opportunity to pant, of which he will. He has only ever worn a muzzle once and so I am nervous he will fight it so I'm hoping to introduce it as soon as it comes. I'm not necessarily comfortable with using a muzzle but at the very least its good he get accustomed to one, especially if he will be lure coursing with others
