The Hans Verbruggen bicep sleeve is a hand-sewn bite sleeve for protection training and bite work with young and adult dogs, in four soft-to-hard combinations of nylon and jute.
Choosing the sleeve and cover separately lets you match the feel to your dog: start soft with nylon on nylon, then move to jute on jute as the grip gets harder and fuller.
Features
- Hand-sewn construction
- Soft: nylon sleeve with nylon cover
- Medium: nylon sleeve with jute cover, or jute sleeve with nylon cover
- Hard: jute sleeve with jute cover

Designed by Belgian dog training professional Hans Verbruggen, who has over 15 years of experience in the NePoPo® training method, it's made for protection training and ring sports such as Mondioring, PSA and Belgian Ring. Replacement covers are available separately.
How trainers use it
Trainers usually start a young dog on a softer sleeve and move to harder materials as the grip becomes calm and full. The helper presents the sleeve so the dog can bite deep into the target area, and often lets the dog win it early on to build confidence. Movement and pressure are added in small steps. Check the sleeve and cover for wear before each session, and replace a cover once it starts to tear or loses its shape.
