Mutt Muffs: Dog ear protection


My dog goes (almost) everywhere I go, including on the mountain to shoot. He loves going shooting, but HATES the sound of pistols which is why I searched for doggy ear protection. Mutt Muffs is currently the only successful manufacturers of k-9 specific ear muffs and for Zip, they work pretty darn good. Your milage may vary, but if you get it from them (www.safeandsoundpets.com) they have a 30 day money back guarantee. Worth trying it if your pooch is sensitive to guns, thunder, airplanes, humvees, whatever!

Not a sponsored video, but they kindly sent these over for T&E.

The Good:
- They seem to work for Zip, so mission accomplished!
- Fit is good, so use the size charts :)
- The Muffs make your dog approximately 45% cuter (your milage may vary)
- Comes with a small carry bag

The Bad:
- Strap mounting could be done so that no interruption in the shell is made. Might raise price, but might also increase effectiveness.
- Wish it came with silicone bead on the strap to better grip the noggin. Regular walking/running had no issues, but slippage could happen during vigorous exercise.
- May or may not work with your dog. Some dogs hate stuff on their head- thats the nature of the beast, as they say.
