The Midas is a small wedge-shaped technique bite cushion for foundation work in bite and protection training.
The pronounced wedge gives a grip that feels close to a large protection sleeve, so the full, deep bite you build on the cushion carries over when your dog moves on to sleeve work.
Features
- Pronounced wedge shape, sleeve-like grip
- Clearly defined bite surface
- Width: approx. 23 cm
- Weight: approx. 660 g, easy to present
Use it for grip technique with young dogs, transition from pillows to sleeves, and refining grips in IGP and protection training.
How trainers use it
In foundation grip work, the helper presents the cushion so the dog can bite deep into the wedge and fill its mouth. Short repetitions, with a clear win at the end of each, help build a calm, full grip. The helper keeps the cushion steady and moves it away from the dog rather than towards it, so the dog learns to push into the bite. Once the grip is reliable on the cushion, trainers usually move on to a puppy or young-dog sleeve.
