BARKLESS Basket Dog Muzzle for Medium and Large Dogs, Shapeable TPE Design for Drinking and Eating

BARKLESS is a basket dog muzzle designed to help prevent biting, chewing and scavenging while allowing dogs to drink and be fed through its open basket design.

• Odorless TPE silicone — lightweight for small dogs and designed to resist deformation on medium and large dogs.
• Malleable thermal plastic silicone — can be heated and shaped around your dog’s snout for a more tailored fit, including on broad-nosed dogs.
• W-shaped design — keeps the muzzle away from the eyes to help prevent friction.
• Basket construction — provides all-around snout protection for public socialization, vet visits, grooming and travel.
• Instructional training video — demonstrates how to pair the muzzle with treats to help your dog become accustomed to wearing it.

For dogs that need a muzzle during everyday outings or handling, the basket format offers protection while still allowing access to water and food. BARKLESS is made for situations such as meeting other people and animals in public, visiting the veterinarian, being groomed or traveling. A correct fit is important: measure both snout circumference and length before choosing a size.

How do I choose the right BARKLESS muzzle size?

Choose a size using your dog’s snout circumference and snout length, then compare both measurements with the size chart. If the circumference fits a size but the snout length exceeds that size’s maximum range by about 1 inch (2.54 cm), choose the next size up. This length check matters especially for long-snout dogs such as Dobermans.

Measure according to the method shown in the sizing guide and use both measurements to select the fit. The circumference alone is not enough to determine the right size.

• Measure circumference and length before selecting a size.
• For broad noses, the muzzle can be heat-shaped around the snout.

Can my dog drink or eat while wearing this basket muzzle?

Yes. The basket design allows a muzzled dog to drink and be fed, unlike traditional muzzle designs that prevent these activities. Its all-around coverage is intended to help prevent biting, chewing and scavenging while supporting use during public socialization and handling.

The TPE silicone construction is described as lightweight for small dogs and resistant to deformation for medium and large dogs. The W-shaped design also keeps the muzzle clear of the eyes to help reduce rubbing in that area.

• Useful for vet visits, grooming and dog travel.
• Made from odorless TPE silicone.

How can I help my dog get used to wearing the muzzle?

If your dog refuses the muzzle or removes it easily despite having the correct size, the instructional video demonstrates a training approach that combines the basket muzzle with treats. This gradual introduction is intended to reduce fear and help the dog become more comfortable wearing it.

Introduce the muzzle through the treat-based technique rather than relying on fit alone. The malleable material can also be heated and shaped to create a closer fit around the snout.

• Use the video’s muzzle-and-treat training technique.
• Shape the thermal plastic silicone around the dog’s snout for a tailored fit.

BARKLESS suits dog owners who need a basket muzzle for outings, travel or handling and can measure their dog’s snout carefully before choosing a size. It is also designed to accommodate broad noses through heat shaping, while long-snout dogs need a close length check. Its basket allows drinking and feeding while helping protect the snout during use.
