JAFCO Muzzles

The JAFCO muzzle is an excellent choice for bite risk dogs, and for just about any other reason, it comes in white and black (hard plastic) and clear (vinyl). There is also a head strap and treat hole option. However, we don’t recommend getting the treat hole on the clear if you have a determined bite risk or scavenger.

MEASUREMENT CHARTS

Muzzle Training and Tips are the only ones who have a full and accurate size, measurement and weight chart for these muzzles. Most companies use a wildly inaccurate or incomplete chart, which is unfair to customers who should know exactly what they are purchasing.

CONS:

  • Smaller size range (small to med/large)

  • It doesn't fit the breeds they suggest

  • Clear is more bendable

  • More enclosed

  • Straps are placed weirdly on some models

  • Incorrect sizing/measurements on the JAFCO website.

  • White/black is harder to modify

PROs:

  • Comfortable

  • Lightweight

  • Bite proof (ex. clear style with treat hole)

  • Great for scavenging/vets/at home

  • Treat hole and head strap option

  • Can modify

  • Nose padding

WHERE TO PURCHASE

LEERBURG ‘POLYMER WIRE’ (US)

They are a US-based company but ship internationally (though not recommended due to high postage cost). We recommend using Leerburg if you live in the US, this is so you don't take away options/stock for those who can't luckily order from their own country. Everyone except for the EU (Not the UK) and the US has to order from overseas.

Do NOT follow their sizing or measurements. They are incorrect and incomplete for correct sizing. See here for how they size, shipping and wait time info.

These are labelled as such:

C sizes = CHOPO sizing

F sizes = FDT sizing

For example, if you want a 16F (FDT), you can also get a 65C; more info on the size/number chart is linked in the information.

BUY FROM LEERBURG

For Dog Trainers ‘M9/M10’ (WORLDWIDE)

Also applies to D&T but have never recommended buying from them.

What to do for the best outcome:

  1. Pick the model (M9/M10) and location you want

  2. Pick the size needed (1-30) drop-down may say ‘I will fill my dog's measurements’, click that to select size.

  3. Please do NOT give them any information like measurements, breed, size or age. They WILL size wrong and possibly refuse to refund.

  4. Using PayPal ensures you have a backup if they refuse a refund/exchange. They may also help with the return shipping fee.

  5. Once purchased, it’s likely they will email/call you for your information, reply to ‘send the size you ordered. They will send it.

Not following the above puts you at high risk of getting the wrong size and not returning it.

EUROPE Stores

Options are extensive and I highly recommend using google translate and our charts HERE which explain the Chopo sizes/numbers compared to what FDT/Leerburg use (they are the same muzzles just different labelling)

CHICUNDSCHARF

Chicundscharf is an excellent option for Germany and other EU countries (check with C&S first).

Low cost and fast shipping. They have almost all CHOPO/JVM muzzles available.

HABEO

Great option for Czech/EU but you will need a friend or find a forwarding place like Tiptrans
