I never used a muzzle on my dog..why would you?

BTW, I just tried a prong/pinch collar for the past couple days for corrections and it is working great. My dog walks besides me and automatically sits down besides me when we stop walking. Its not perfect just yet (especially with distractions), but it's only been 2 days.

Also spyker, you did the right thing by kicking that other dog off and doing what an alpha dog would do in the situtation. I've been reading this article by Suzzane Clothier "He just wants to say Hi" and it's a good resource for understanding dog-dog introductions/attacks. Sorry this is a bit off topic.
