I use a soft muzzle quite often, for stuff like paw maintenance, which cause a lot of "objection". He won't bite, at least not without warning, but might snap. You don't want to be worrying about this when "operating".
Got it from the Vet.
You have to train a bit to get acceptance and use sometimes, when you don't need to, as a reminder.
I have no problem getting it on.
Come the day you need to get a tick out, or something similar, you may be glad you did this.
I meet people using the plastic-basket type to stop scavenging. Mine does not do this. Ball-obsessed you see.
