My dog eats everything on walks and gets sick. Will a muzzle help?

Question

My dog keeps eating things he shouldn't while on walks. I've tried my best to watch him carefully to make sure he doesn't get anything but he's that fast it's not always possible to stop him. I've tried to train him to stop but he still eats anything and everything. Would a muzzle help? I'd only put it on him while on walks so he wouldn't be able to pick things up. It's making him ill, he was sick yesterday and we found a dead mouse in his vomit. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | unneutered | 6 months and 24 days old

Yes, I would recommend a basket muzzle. You need to use this type of muzzle so he can still open his mouth and pant. Do not use a cloth muzzle that will keep his mouth closed. Either of these would be fine. Be sure and get the correct size. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dpets&field-keywords=B005D4O1YY https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dpets&field-keywords=B003WGQ03A Hope this helps.
