ARE THESE GLOVES BITE-PROOF?
No glove is 100% bite-proof. These gloves are designed to minimize the risk of bites and scratches through their thick leather construction, reinforced wear zones, and extended cuffs. Always exercise caution and utilize proper handling tools.
WHAT ARE THESE GLOVES BEST USED FOR?
Perfect for animal control, rescue, shelters, wildlife rehabilitation, grooming, and general kennel work—especially useful when handling stressed or variable animals where grip and protection are paramount.
DO THESE GLOVES COME IN DIFFERENT SIZES?
Available in one size with two length options: 16-inch for better dexterity and 22-inch for maximum forearm coverage during more unpredictable situations.
WHICH LENGTH SHOULD I CHOOSE—16IN OR 22IN?
For improved dexterity and everyday handling, opt for 16IN. For extensive coverage when dealing with more unpredictable animals or when working deeper into cages or brush, the 22IN option is ideal.
HOW DO I CLEAN AND CARE FOR THE GLOVES?
Simply wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if required, and let air dry naturally. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, and keep away from direct heat or flames while drying; conditioning the leather occasionally will maintain its suppleness.
EXCEPTIONAL BITE RESISTANCE: Constructed from top grain leather with reinforced double leather finger palms and backs, these gloves provide excellent bite protection against small and medium animals, including cats, birds, reptiles, and rodents. For larger aggressive dogs, pair them with a bite sleeve for enhanced safety.
SECURE FOREFARM PROTECTION: With an extra-long 22-inch design and a 12.5-inch long sleeve, they shield your fingers and forearms from animal bites, scratches, and grabs from cats, parrots, eagles, and snakes.
