The Muzzle Movement began in 2022 when Clara Hewson (MSc Clinical Animal Behaviour) who has worked with some of the most challenging rescues in the UK, adopted a Pointer called Tolly, who needed to be muzzled. She found the market was lacking in comfortable, quality muzzles which offered suitable pant room. Clara decided to change this by designing a brand new muzzle in a beautiful range of colours, which were comfortable for dogs. The Muzzle Movement is dedicated to advocating for the safe use of muzzles on dogs and also has a welcoming community on social media, promoting positive muzzle messages, information and advice. We will be available to give advice on all things muzzle – from choosing the right fit to muzzle training, as well as how we can support you as a canine professional. The team is largely made up of people with a background in training and behaviour, especially within the rescue industry. We are passionately force-free and advocates the use of science-based positive reinforcement training methods.
Canine Arthritis Management (CAM) is a veterinary driven initiative set up in 2015 by award winning vet Dr Hannah Capon. Her vision is to provide education and support to canine professionals and caregivers on the early identification and management of arthritis so dogs do not needlessly suffer from the chronic pain associated with the disease, which is a major cause of premature euthanasia. CAM’s vision is to help dogs lead long, comfortable and happy lives. We want dogs to be listened to and understood, have their pain identified early and managed in a proactive manner. We want to celebrate the special bond between humans and dogs and to enable dogs to have meaningful and pleasurable connections with the things important to them.
