Basket muzzle Trixie TRIXIE 17625 for dogs, size XS/S

The Trixie TRIXIE 17625 basket muzzle for dogs, size XS/S is a lightweight, open-structure muzzle designed to cover the snout while allowing normal panting and drinking. Made by Trixie for temporary restraint, it is intended for short periods during grooming, veterinary visits, training sessions or walks where extra control is needed. The basket shape reduces pressure on the nose and permits air circulation, helping maintain comfort for small-breed dogs that fit the XS/S size range.

Advantages

This basket muzzle provides secure coverage of the snout while preserving breathability and the ability to pant. The open construction enables dogs to drink and receive treats through the muzzle, and the design minimizes direct pressure on the nasal bridge. The lightweight materials contribute to easier wear during short-term use and the adjustable straps ensure a more stable fit for small dogs.

Suitable for

• Short grooming sessions and nail clipping
• Veterinary examinations and treatments
• Controlled walks and public transport
• Basic training where temporary restraint is required

Key specifications

• Style: Basket muzzle allowing panting and drinking
• Size category: XS/S for small breeds
• Construction: Open structure for air circulation
• Adjustability: Straps for fitting and stabilization
• Intended use: Short-term restraint during grooming, vet visits, walks and training

How to use

Place the muzzle over the dog’s snout, making sure the basket fully covers the nose and allows free airflow. Secure the straps around the head and adjust them to achieve a snug but comfortable fit—avoid overtightening. Verify that the dog can pant and take small sips of water while wearing the muzzle. Use the muzzle only for the recommended short durations and supervise the dog at all times while it is restrained.

Usage recommendations

Introduce the muzzle gradually: let the dog inspect it, practice short wear sessions with positive reinforcement, and increase duration step by step. Do not use the muzzle for prolonged periods, during heavy exercise, or as a substitute for supervision. Regularly check straps and the basket for wear and replace the muzzle if it becomes damaged.
