Wedged stick made of teflon or wood used to wedge open their mouth. Used right you shouldn't harm the teeth. Wild Boar USA has them I believe.

You can make them your self out of thick teflon/plastic (cutting board material) just cut it and shape it smooth so it isn't rough when run through the dogs mouth.

Get you a hickory hammer handle from hardware store . Plane it down to form a wedge.

Exactly .....blank them out to 2" on the table saw and cut the angles with the band or table saw then shape with your belt sander. |

Do the break sticks really work. My hunting buddy is thinking about getting one for his catch dog. But from what I have read they are kind of unreliable.

only as un-reliable as the operator haha. I mean there's nothing to the break stick to "fail" it's just how you use it. I try to ease mine all the way across the dogs mouth then pry.
