Lightweight plastic running/ racing muzzles allow your dog to pant freely due to their depth and open basket design making them the first choice for off lead running and activities such as canicross, bikejor and lure coursing.

This style is the original lightweight running muzzle and allows the dog to pant, drink and take treats.

A k eeper strap can be added to make the muzzle more secure, the keeper strap is worn as a collar with the muzzle strap feeding through a loop. ensuring the muzzle is held more securely in place, they can be found here

Length:

Measure the length of your dogs head in a straight line from behind their ear, to the tip of the nose. The muzzles are available 20 and 23cm long and also come with an adjustable leather strap.

For dogs that measure 18-21cm you need the 20cm muzzle, for dogs that measure 22cm and longer you need the 23cm muzzle.

Depth:

This is important to make sure your dog can pant freely.

The circumference of each muzzle size is measured at the end of the basket where the dogs nose will be and are available in 26, 31 and 35cm.

Hold a loop of tape at 26cm, 31cm, or 35 cm over the end of the dogs nose to see which size they will need to have enough room to pant.
