Basket muzzle Trixie TRIXIE 17626 for dogs, size S

Trixie TRIXIE 17626 basket muzzle for dogs, size S is a purpose-built restraint that offers a safe and functional fit for small breeds and short-muzzled dogs. The design leaves room for natural panting and allows the dog to drink while preventing biting, chewing and unwanted mouthing. Constructed to meet routine needs during training sessions, veterinary examinations, grooming appointments and walks where temporary control is necessary.

Advantages

The basket shape ensures unhindered airflow and allows panting, which helps regulate body temperature during activity. The open structure permits drinking without removing the muzzle, reducing stress during short-term use. Adjustable straps provide a secure fit while distributing pressure evenly to avoid discomfort. The durable materials specified by the manufacturer offer resistance to chewing and daily wear, while the lightweight construction minimizes interference with the dog’s normal head movement.

Suitable for

• Short-muzzled and small dog breeds that need temporary restraint
• Veterinary examinations and treatments
• Grooming and bathing sessions
• Training situations where control of biting or mouthing is required
• Walks in busy or unfamiliar environments

Key specifications

How to use

Place the basket muzzle over the dog’s snout and position it so the nose rests comfortably within the cup of the muzzle. Secure the adjustable straps behind the ears and, if present, beneath the jaw according to the manufacturer’s fastening design to achieve a snug but not tight fit. Check that the dog can pant and open its mouth slightly; adjust straps to prevent slipping without causing rubbing or pressure points. Monitor the dog during use and remove the muzzle if signs of distress or overheating appear.

Usage recommendations

Use the muzzle for short periods and under supervision. Fit and acclimatization are important: introduce the muzzle gradually and combine with positive reinforcement so the dog becomes comfortable wearing it. Do not use as a long-term substitute for proper training or behavior modification.
