Is there something - I assume something sprayable - that will dull the
finish on a glossy inkjet print without damaging it?


Is there a reason why you cannot re-print it with matte paper? If you didn't
print it yourself, how about asking the original source to print another
copy?

Another approach would be to mount it in a frame with an anti-glare glass.

Distance, expense.


So get online to one of the many online print services and get one done, the
postie will deliver and most are modesly priced and fast.

Would cost more to buy some spray for Dogs sake.

Any camera shop can make a copy on matte paper.
If it is in a frame you can use matte or semi-matte glass.
Why take a chance on ruining the print.
