Are your dogs used to using a muzzle? I would never muzzle a dog that was not used to it for any length of time.

I have greyhounds and they are muzzled all the time and they start at a very early age. So when I leave they are muzzled, but the littles are crated with no muzzle. (they are crated for about 3 hours until the kids get home from work)

How long will they be crated? More than a few hours and I think I would board or have someone pet sit.

I didn't read all the responses, but why would you muzzle a "little" anyway? A good muzzle they can eat, drink and bark with it on!
