Dog Goggles

Did you know that most dogs end up with eye problems by the time they are eight years old? And did you know many of these could be prevented by using goggles?⁠

“My dog doesn’t need an ID tag because they are microchipped/ obedient/ leashed etc.”

Mia doesn’t wear a collar at home to avoid any chances of getting stuck on something while unattended. However, I like to have the contact information on her in the car or while on a walk. I am never concerned about her running away or not coming back to me, but anything can happen, and it’s better safe than sorry. If we get into a car accident, she might get out of her crate and run away in panic. If she has a seizure, she might start panicking and gets confused before recovering completely. She might be attacked by dogs/coyotes and get lost while running away from them. Or something I haven’t considered for a long time: I could also lose consciousness/get into an accident dropping her leash in a busy area.

Finally, our society moves away from muzzles that keep the dog’s mouth closed.

This is a topic I have wanted to address for a long time because it’s among the top 5 myths around dog gear. If there is a discussion around leash pulling on social media, it will pop up in the comments section sooner or later.

Muzzles can be used for many reasons; the dog being a bite risk is just one of them. However, one would expect a muzzle to be a safe choice if there is a chance the dog bites, but in many cases, they do not provide the protection we expect from them.
