GOOBER GSD MUTT MUZZLE RECS
Hi! My goober GSD mutt that I’ve posted on here before is a bit of an anxious little guy.
This is the first time I’ve had minor situation like this and it has me a traumatized and I’m sure him as well. He’s only ever seen two vets (the humane society and the one I’ve taken him to over the past year and half) and never was anxious like this.
For a little backstory: We went to the vet in March to get him a physical (wanted his teeth checked, back legs and itchiness in his ears) and he had a hard time with the vet to the point where he was barking and backing into the wall (he has a scary bark) cause he was scared and the vet told me without really checking him “his teeth and legs are fine but you have to train him more, here put a muzzle on him and we’ll take him to the back for an allergy shot and to swab his ears”. I felt so useless cause he looked at me terrified and I couldn’t help..I asked if I can go back there to help calm him and he said no and when they gave him back to me another dude just pushed his leash to me (that was soaked in urine) and walked away . My boy was anxious, smelled of pee and kept barking.. I felt like I did him wrong and I was a bad owner for not advocating more.
So now has a new an appt with a new vet (his groomer recommended) that we emphasized he was a bit anxious but they seemed caring and understanding and allowed us to be the first animal of the day.
With that being said, I want to give him a proper muzzle eventually but with the appt being next week does anyone recommend a good Amazon brand I can get as a placeholder?
Thanks for the help everyone!
