TELLS KIND Of MUzzLE
THAT MUST Be USED
Should Effectively Prevent
Dog From Biting, Says
Dr.. Woodward.

What is a muzzle?" is answered finally
by the muzzle experts, DR.. Woodward
and Secretary Heap of the Washington
Human Society. A muzzle is not a mug
zle In the eyes of Poundmas ter Einstein
unless it actually prevents dogs from BIT
ing-from taking any solid substance be-
tween the teeth. At the same time it
must not be such a muzzle that will cause
the dog any pain.
Full directions concerning muzzles are
contained in a statement prepared today
by the, health officer.
mo matter what type of muzzle may
be selected" he says, 1.-The particular
muzzle put on the dog must be of a
proper size for that particular animal
and. in addition to being OF proper type
and size. 1t must be properly put on. The
type of nuzzle selected by the owner of
the dog. the size of the particular mug
zie purchased and the manner in which
ir1s put on must combine to prevent ef-
fectively the dog from biting. 1t cannot
40 this unless 1t prevents at the same
time the dog from taking any solid sub
stances between it's teeth. In order to be
humane, however. the muzzle must at
the same time allow the dog to open its
mouth sufficiently to breath freely and to
lap out Its tongue to drink.
Must Be Firmly Attached.
"A muzzle meeting the above require
ments will necessarily have to be taken
on to allow the dog to eat; in other
words, muzzle that can be worn by a
dog while he is eating cannot comply with
the requirements Of the law. In order to
protect the dog from impounding and its
owner from arrest, the muzzle must be
hrmly attached in such q manner that il
cannot be torn off by the dog. In order
to be humane, the muzzle must not have
anything connected with it. which will in
voive pain or unnecessary suffering to the
animal.
Neither the health officer nor the
Humane Society can limit the use of
muzzles to any particular type or types,
but the poundmaster will take up dogs
that are ineffectively muzzled. and Will
see to the prosecution Of owners who
allow such dogs to run at large. The
Washington Humane Society will see
to the prosecution of the owners Of
dogs who cruelty muzzle such animals
The committee appointed for that
purpose and the secretary Of the Wash
ington Humane Society will, however,
be glad to advise dealers and others
with respect to their views concerning
any particular muzzle Or muzzles that
may be left at the health office with
that end in view
