Addiction can be either behavioral or substance related. An intense feeling of emotional need or physical craving characterizes them both.

Choose the right kind of muzzle for your situation. There are many different kinds of muzzles available on the market, but the main criteria should be that your dog can sniff, drink, and pant while wearing it. The ability to accept treats through the muzzle is desirable too.
But be aware that dogs can also pant as a symptom for something more serious as well. They may excessively pant when under various forms of stress. They can also do so as a symptom of a medical illness, an injury or from heat stroke. Panting can also be symptomatic of fever, congestive heart failure, respiratory disease, infections, anemia, or even heartworms. It can even mean an obstruction in the throat. Check the gums.
