gsxrpilot Posted February 11, 2017 Report Posted February 11, 2017 @Samurai Husky we use cotton balls in the ears of our dog. They don't shake out quite as easy. And if you have a passenger with you, have them put the cotton in during your run up. That way the dog understands the benefit.
Samurai Husky Posted February 11, 2017 Report Posted February 11, 2017 tried that, didnt work They ended up shaking them out; Remember Huskeys have pointy ears, so its not hard for them to shake it out. I also tried the miffs with cotton hoping the miffs would at least hold the cotton in, that didnt work. Then I was trying to come up with a way of taping them in there or something, but decided to just let them be. Thats why i was thinking of the foam plugs and then maybe something slightly sticky to hold it in.
bradp Posted February 11, 2017 Report Posted February 11, 2017 We failed with mutt muffs and use a long-ish scarf that we wrap around his lightbulb head a couple of times. He looks like Jackie Kennedys mother, but it get the job done for the takeoff and climb until he shakes it off a bit later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
mccdeuce Posted February 12, 2017 Report Posted February 12, 2017 I use mutt muffs on my husky. I think the part she really doesn't like it folding the points down. She took them off the first few flights and we would just put them back on and she would leave them on after that. Might try the scarf trick. Always looking for something better.
Samurai Husky Posted February 12, 2017 Report Posted February 12, 2017 i was thinking foam or cotton ear plugs, a ace bandage combined with a inflatable dog collar (http://www.petsmart.com/dog/supplies-and-training/collars-harnesses-and-leashes/collars/21st-century-inflatable-protective-pet-collar-5176459.html) this way they cant paw the bandage off. Granted this would be for long trips; The things we do for our animals
