Grassroots K9 Collab | Heavy-Duty Leather | Superlock Sliders
Introducing the revamped GTFO V2 Leather Wedge Cover!
First, we've upgraded the leather. The original GTFO used 10/12 oz leather, but we've received feedback that it wasn't as durable as expected. We've now enhanced both the GTFO V2 and our new Mini GTFO with a sturdier 13/15 oz leather. As a result, these models are only available in black, and the burgundy option has been discontinued.
Additionally, we’ve upgraded the previous metal tri-glide sliders to new superlock sliders, designed with aggressive teeth that securely hold the nylon straps in place.
The Grassroots K9 and Ray Allen Manufacturing collaboration is here. And since we like things practical, functional, and centered around purpose, we kept things simple. From their design we removed the frills and excess nylon components, used a thicker leather, and moved the center nylon strap from being sewn on the outside to being sewn onto the inside of the wedge cover. It's built with purpose, for purpose!
The significance of a leather wedge cover is to develop a strong and secure bite for your dog. Afterall, leather is a great bite training material, and equalizer. With a soft bite, or nipping action (typewriter biting), your dog will fail to fully grip and grasp the wedge and you'll easily slip it from their mouth. But, as your dog learns to drive with a deeper bite, they will develop a stronger grip and will be more successful in the discipline of bite work you have chosen.
We recommend using a bite sleeve, bite pillow, or bite wedge in conjunction with this wedge cover for the intention to agitate, frustrate, and encourage a deep, forceful bite. If your dog is crushing this cover, consider stepping up your bite training by utilizing one on a bite suit.
To use it properly, simply wrap the GTFO V2 Leather Wedge Cover around a bite pillow, bite wedge, bite sleeve or bite suit and secure it tightly by feeding each of the three nylon straps through their respective adjustable superlock sliders. Double back the nylon through the slide buckles for extra security. You'll notice the outer straps are sewn onto the outside of the cover to keep it tight around the bite equipment you choose to use, whereas the center nylon strap is sewn onto the inside, providing more real estate for the bite keeping the nylon safely away from the dog, which may be used to their advantage on the bite.
