    Question about Muzzles

    Hi,
    Can anyone recommend a specific brand or type of muzzle for my dog?  She's a Lab/Border Collie mix.  She needs to wear a muzzle in certain situations (at the vet, for example), but I have not been able to find one that will stay on.  She uses her paws to pull it off over her head. I'm hoping someone here has experience with dogs wearing muzzles and can give me some advice.

    Personally, I like a basket muzzle as it allows the dog to have it's mouth open but not actually take a bite out of someone/something.

    I like the [linkEnameled>http://www.dog.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=320702+000&Cat=][size=2]Enameled Wire Muzzle [/link] the best.  I don't have that exact one but I'm thinking about ording it from here.  The looks are a little deciveng and when someone see it on the suddenly think your dog is some horrable beast.  I've had that reaction way to many times but for the dog it's just overall more confortable then the cloth, more freedom with more protection.  I have to use a muzzle most times when I take my dog to where there are other dogs so I can relate.
