First off I would rather take advice from my veterinarian than a sales clerk at a pet store!
BUT not many vets know THAT much...in some ways I know more then they do and I know that from past experience...and I was a pet store clerk..I know that where I worked they educated us on what we were doing we had to read a huge binder of info on every section in the store and what it dose for the animal and why.


or shocking the sh*t out of them more humane
That wont happen unless the dog ignores the shock, wich most dont.

which doesn't cover the whole snout-it is the thickness of a leash, well it looks like a leash for around the mouth)
If it looks liike that then it was probly a Halti wich isnt a muzzle its a training device to stop dogs from pullling...
a common misconception

I would have the dog surgically debarked and forget about it.
Why on earth would you do that. It would be easier AND cheaper to get them trained by a pro.. debark your dog wth!?!?!


Why not try spraying him with a water bottle?
By getting up your teaching him that he is winnning. You are rewarding him. Hes going to think "I'm barking , oh look shes getting up to tell me I'm good by petting me or tending to me"
Ignoring him all the time would be your best bet then squirt him a few times

The flea thing well...shes dumb for saying that
why make the dog even more uncomfortable?
The stuff on the dog dosent work right away it works within a month or a few month time...stupid girl

I agree they shouldnt be selling products they dissagree with and if they are then keep their mouts shut. Oh well its their loss no money for them!
I think if they are going to be like that with alot of people they will looose buisness fast.
