Baskerville Ultra Dog Muzzle (South Africa) – Humane Basket Muzzle for Training, Vet Visits & Grooming

Looking for a safe, humane dog muzzle in South Africa? The Baskerville Ultra is a durable basket-style muzzle that lets your dog pant, drink, and take treats, making it ideal for training, vet and grooming visits, public outings, and travel. Made from tough TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) with secure straps, it offers peace of mind without compromising your dog’s comfort.

Why Choose the Baskerville Ultra Muzzle

• Humane basket design – allows natural panting, drinking, and treat delivery during training.

• Durable & secure – TPR construction with strong straps for everyday reliability.

• Customisable fit – can be heat-shaped (like a mouthguard) for your dog’s unique head shape.

• Training-friendly – perfect for cooperative care, desensitisation, and positive reinforcement.

• Versatile use – great for vet visits, grooming, public transport, walks, and reactive-dog management.

• Multiple sizes – fits small, medium, and large dogs. (See sizing guide below.)

Tip: Muzzles aren’t “just for aggressive dogs.” They’re a smart safety tool for many real-life situations. Explore our muzzle training series on social media for step-by-step guidance using positive reinforcement.

Who This Muzzle Is For
