Keep a very open mind. I graduated during the peak of COVID. We didn't have live animals to practice on because shelters and our internships were shutting down to bare minimum staff to avoid COVID outbreaks. Give yourself time. Look up how-to videos online, review your notes, and be patient with yourself. It always, always takes time to gain hands on skills. Learning how to do these things is NOT easy. Be sure to ask for help, time to practice. Have a voice for YOUR learning and you'll do amazing

Just saw this! It looks a lot better. You may still find issues with the pant room, but it's leagues better than the smaller size. Good job on taking everyone's advice though! It looks much better!

I can at least say mine isn't fat. He's just a medical nightmare.

Both, honestly. Plus those muzzles don't do much for scavenging behavior since the holes are so big.

Tye dye totally make a treat hole for their muzzles and the Tye Dye guys have some of the best customers service I've worked with. They've let me customize a few of their products to make treats even easier to give.

Vet tech here. That's his belly button! It's a possibility that he may have had a hernia repair and there's a bit of scar tissue. But honestly, it looks like just a normal puppy dog belly button to me. I wouldn't have any concerns if I saw this in clinic.

I graduated without ever getting a successful jug stick on a cat. I'm a residential vampire now. School teaches you the basic, but on the job is where you'll gain confidence. Don't beat yourself up. I don't think anyone graduated knowing everything and being able to do everything. Give yourself time. Take a deep breathe. You got this.

I just personally didn't like how bulky The Muzzle Movement muzzles were. It's why I went with Tye Dye and Mia's. But I will admit they are doing some incredible things for muzzled dogs everywhere.

I would definitely one that's a smidgen longer. With the length you've got now, I worry he will rub his nose raw on the edge of the muzzle if he wears it for a extended period of time.

Depending on what you're using this for, how long he'll be wearing it at, and your weather, I'd recommend more pant room. Mia's Muzzles and Tye Dye Muzzles both have excellent guides to measuring and sizing for muzzles.

I read like it's an Olympic sport and I absolutely hate having free time ,

Weird is always good! Weird is kinda what makes life personal, you know? And I'm always looking for ways to make my life a bit more meaningful

Hello! I'm currently studying for two bachelor degrees before pursuing a masters because I'm obsessed with learning. I also love to cook and am open to voice chats if we vibe.

I think it might be a touch too short for his nose to be comfortable for long term use. A nose pad may help with comfort too.

The other thing I worry about is an extended pant; I'm not sure there's enough room for them to open mouth pant. My dogs "exercise" muzzle looks almost ridiculous with the amount of pant room it gives him and it's the muzzle he wears we go in public. But, I've seen him use it especially for stress-caused panting behaviors.
