This is a Halti. It is used to control a dog when walking. There are variants on the theme.
See the happy smiling doggy face. That could lick you and even bite you if the mood took the dog.
These are muzzles. The dog cannot bite or lick you. Even if they wanted to.
My dogs have Haltis. One of them is even pink.
Please stop asking ...
a) if my dogs are dangerous
b) why are they muzzled
c) can I pat them
The answers are and always will be ...
a) no
b) they're not
c) thank you for asking and yes you may.
Actually please don't stop asking the last question. It's the random kids people who assume they can pat the dogs without asking that do my head in. The kids ask.
I think you need haltis for very strong dogs?
ReplyDeleteThey are a life saver with 2 strong shepherds. Chest harnesses are recommended but all they do is encourage the dog to pull using the strongest part of the body. Halti all the way.
DeleteIf they stop dogs pulling I think they’re a great idea
ReplyDeleteYes always ask before patting a dog you don’t know and even if you do. Some dogs are different on lead out of their yards.
It's common sense but I am amazed at the number of parents who will tell their kids to pat the puppy. Kids on their own will ask.
