So your dog is 7-12 month old and several important steps in training are behind. Let’s assume that your dog did “biting bite rag” part and “soft puppy sleeve introduction” part. Now depending on the skills of your dog and depending on size of young dog mouth and depending on jaw structure (should be big enough to grab and hold the sleeve) you can start transition to the Intermediate Bite Arm Now please understand that in making this sleeve we use same material we use to make bite suit.
General “Woof” Tip: Leather can be of different quality.
Latigo leather is too soft for some of the products and harness leather is too sturdy – this is one of the reasons why we use vegetable tanned leather.
Vegetable tanned leather combines perfect durability and softness to give you as a handler , and your dog most of comfort.
Therefore it is extremely durable, yet very friendly for your dog training. Not sure which sleeve to buy? We can help. Please send us your dogs’ age, breed, weight, information about what training experience your dog has, possibly picture of the head/jaw and of course what would you like to train your dog for. what are you trying to achieve through training? what is your budget? we will suggest most appropriate model based on your input Our intermediate soft sleeve AKA intermediate bite arm can be used with young and with adult dogs.
General “Woof” Tip: Please make sure to check what fittings, hardware or in simple language metal parts are products made of. Some metals or compounds can cause allergy reaction or fur discoloration, it can also be reason for irritation and therefore high vet bills and can make your dog suffer.
We use friendly materials in making our products and use “protection pads” approach where it is technically possible. Those small or big pads are used to protect your dog from contact with buckles, which is especially important when you have active dog which likes to run and play around.
Are you familiar with the problem when dog (previously trained to bite hard arm only) has a problem with first grip of the suspect during personal protection and police work? This happens when dog first time faces something soft with a movement inside. Intermediate sleeve can help teach your dog how to handle situations like this. While training with this sleeve helper should allow dog feel the movement inside the sleeve during bite We also make it with exterior handle positioned on the top to make it easier for you during training. Bite area has cross stitching reinforcement for additional durability. Unlike most of the sleeves on the market we also include increased shoulder protection
