No I haven't tried muzzling him. I hate that he's so scared and the throwing himself around, pulling his foot and licking at my hands makes me nervous that I'll get his quick. I also hate to think about what would happen if he did lose his mind and bite me. (I know that's what he's thinking when he's licking) It's really just me, when he was a pup some idiot, bootleg vet cut at least 6 of his quicks. And these were just the front feet. I wonder what would have happened if I hadn't snatched him off the table. Ever since then, I was too soft to do it thinking he remembers and that's why he panicks. It took me years to get him used to me just holding his feet.
I don't even own a muzzle, but it's worth a try. Usually I would do it while the dog was laying down, relaxed. That will probably also help that he'll be concentrating on balancing. |
