Extra muzzle attachment

Does anyone know if I can buy/where I can buy the little security strap some muzzles have that attach the muzzle to the collar? (So they can't pull it off). I like the muzzle I'm using and don't want to change it but would like the added security of the strap. Thanks!

Which muzzle are you using, Deb? Is there a gap or something you'll be able to attach a strap to?

Thanks Liz. It's a Trixie loop muzzle so I could put a strap at the back of the neck and attach it to the collar I believe.

I'm not sure how that would work. To keep them from pulling it off you really need the strap from the top and front of the muzzle, between the eyes, as a dog would pull down from the nose. That's where the Baskerville Ultra muzzle's strap is. I can't see how a strap behind the neck would make any difference.

Looking at the Trixie muzzle, though, you've got a D ring under the jaw, you could put a strap on that I guess, which might stop the muzzle coming forwards. Might it be worth just tying it with something like a shoe lace (or a piece of sparkly pink ribbon cause that would suit Axl down to the ground) to see if securing at that point would actually work?

Lol I like the sparkly pink ribbon suggestion he is such a big baby at times! Thanks Liz I will have a fiddle with a strap and test it out maybe there is a way to do it if not I will have a re-think on muzzles

I've always made my own and old lead snipped off a little up from the clip and then attached another clip to hold the muzzle to the collar.
