do people really not know the benefits of muzzle training and think it should only be breed specific? am I looking at this the wrong way?
I’m getting shat on in the r/goldenretriever sub for saying I want to muzzle train our puppy… basically that goldens should NEVER require muzzles and we’ll be bad owners if he ever does?!
we had a dog who was reactive and muzzle trained him. through our training (and trainer), vet, etc. we really learned the positives of muzzle training. we had to BE our dog..so to say we have “experience,” with training etc. kind of diminishes our knowledge.
I’d rather have my dog be comfortable with a muzzle before/if he needs it rather than be uncomfortable and way over threshold.
