Good Quality and Fit
I purchased these muzzles for my two German Shepherds and am really pleased with the product so far! The workmanship and quality seem good and both dogs wear the muzzles comfortably and without complaint. The fit is good (I ordered a large for both dogs) and allows room for panting(breathable), drinking, and taking treats. The weight doesn’t seem to trouble either of my two dogs and the basket construction allows them to safely sniff and explore. Will update for functionality and durability after more use!Size info for my dogs (in case fit help is needed): Male GSD snout circumference 14” snout length: 4.75” neck 20”; Female GSD snout circumference 12.5” snout length 4.75” neck 17”.

Saved some tushies
No issues with this muzzle. Easy to find correct size needed for my GSD/Rottweiler mix. He was a little nippy with overstimulated but this has helped keep friends rear ends safe. (He likes to bite booties)

Sizing is off, but muzzle is sturdy
I got this muzzle for my dog with pica. His "leave it" and "drop it" commands aren't very good outside of training sessions, so I needed a physical barrier to keep him from eating everything. I wanted something that was open enough for good air flow (wire basket), deep enough for panting and receiving treats, and long enough that he couldn't pick up anything off the ground. It was difficult finding a muzzle that checked all these boxes because his shape doesn't fit breed standards due to being mixed. Great Dane muzzles looked deep but were way too large, and brachycephalic muzzles were too short. I decided to give this muzzle a try.My first complaint is that the sizing guide is a little deceiving. My dog's muzzle measured 3.5 inches long and 11 inches around. I thought the 4.3in x 14in (medium) would be plenty of room, since it advertises enough room for panting for even a dog of those measurements. However, when we tried it on there was barely any room for him to pant sufficiently or receive treats. The length of the muzzle was already long, so I felt that going up to the large size would be too long. I ended up cutting/grinding the bottom end and bending it wider to allow his mouth to open more. I just wish I could bend it to more of a box shape (less of a slant), but the metal is too sturdy. The muzzle is actually more slanted at the bottom than the product picture makes it seem.The other complaint I have is that the nose pad at the top of the muzzle is stiff and is not flush with the cage or follows the same shape, so it causes the cage of the muzzle to lift up at an odd angle. Not quite sure how to fix this yet except maybe trying to work the leather more. I realize that altering the product nulls any kind of return or warranty, and alters the original design, but it works for us and it does what I need it to do.I also find it strange that the product arrived wrapped in plastic wrap, but it wasn't a big deal to me since the product itself didn't appear used.Despite those negative points, I do feel that the product is good overall and achieves what I need it to do. Even though the shape and size of the muzzle are not what I expected, the product is sturdy, including the leather straps and metal cage.Picture attached is how it fits to my dog before and after altering. I made sure the edges were smooth, and that the bent piece does not go near his neck or pose a danger (it does not go past the muzzle frame).

Very Long But great product!
I got this muzzle for my husky. The muzzle was very long in her nose but dig around her head amazingly! The quality is so good and so effective for keeping her from biting. She can still drink and receive treats. The design is amazing and the padding is perfect! I would keep it and the only reason I am returning it is because her snout is too short for it! Otherwise, I would recommend this product to anyone!

Good material but too small for large breeds
Muzzle was in good condition but too small for GSD.

Not for us.
IT seems to be a good muzzle. It just wasn't right for us and our dog, a belgian malinois. We returned it and got a leather one instead.

It fits!
I like the way it fits around the head . Has enough adjustments, to make it comfortable for the dog.. Good value for the price.

Questionable, mine broke
The media could not be loaded. The fit was great for my shepherd. He's purebred 90lbs and it fit his mouth nicely and had good access for giving him treats. HOWEVER, it was CRUTIAL to have when trying to meet my sister's dog and getting them acclimated. When meeting two alphas this is an important step and this muzzle broke on the bottom under his chin making it unusable within 5 minutes of wearing it. The metal pole broke off and the sharp edges could cut his mouth but also he could harm the other dog now that his lower jaw was exposed
