Proper Fit for all Be Bop Harnesses:
To measure your dog for a proper fit, use a soft measuring tape or piece of string and wrap around the dog's girth, just behind the front legs. If using a piece of string, wrap around the dog's girth (ribcage) then lay the string on a tape measure or yard stick to figure the measurement size for your dog.

Be Bop USA, Pet Products
Helping unwanted and abused animals
We enjoy many activities at Be Bop USA, always with a focus on humane education towards animals. We are the manufacturer of Be Bop USA Pet Products; a full line of dog and cat collars, leashes, harnesses and training aids. The proceeds from our unique and original products benefit unwanted and abused animals. How do we help unwanted and abused animals? We have combined our knowledge of dogs, cats, miniature horses and an array of many other animals and share our experience with others. Our miniature horses perform at schools, libraries and other public facilities by teaching children how to properly care for and appropriately interact with animals. We educate children on the importance of humane treatment of all animals. We demonstrate how characteristics of different animals (and people) require various techniques to communicate effectively. Legacy, our miniature stallion, helps by letting the children know that horses don't eat pizza and dogs shouldn't eat cats! He answers questions from the audience and participates in games that educate and expand the minds of all. In the end everyone understands that little fingers are the same size as carrots and are not to be offered as food to horses; dogs need to be taught to be respectful as we want them to respect us; and cats well, they do whatever they want and we just take care of their every need. We also many hours towards humane education, volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society and other non-profit and no kill shelters and rescues. We donate product to help with the adoptions of animals to get them off to a good start. We support rescues that rehabilitate dogs and are patient to find a compatible life long home for them. In our efforts to offer more support and help to so many animals in need, we have incorporated our barn to be multi functional. We offer Dog Agility training, as well as puppy classes, obedience training and clicker classes to help owners learn how to work and bond with their dog. In the past we have supported Horse Camps for kids. While teaching kids all about horses from miniature to full size, they are learning respect, compassion and accepting responsibility that they can incorporate into their everyday life and therefore build strong responsible citizens and animal caregivers. Through all these efforts it is our desire to further offer our support to the placement, training and physical needs of so many unwanted animals and offer further humane education. We appreciate our loyal customers whose support and enthusiasm has enable Be Bop USA to be of a little service in a world of such great need. Thank you!
Deborah Woods recommends the Be Bop Front Lead Harness
The Be Bop Front Lead Harness is recommended by Deborah Woods (author and journalist) in the Oregonian and Grand Rapids Press. She addresses dog behavior problems in a logical and common sense way that is quick and effective. If we learn to think like our dog, it's much easier to get the desired behavior from them.

Dog walking turning into sidewalk surfing?

The woman had both hands on the leash, but her brawny bull mastiff was pulling her across the parking lot. Her leather shoes slid precariously along the asphalt. She looked like a water skier being towed by a powerful boat. The big animal was headed right toward my 8-pound dog.
Luckily, this wasn't an aggressive dog, and before the he got to us, the woman wrestled her dog under control. We all smiled (although I admit my smile was weak) and moved on.
It's scary to be at the receiving end of an out-of-control dog. It's not much more fun to be at the other end of the leash. This time of year, by far the biggest plea I get from readers is requests for help on walking their unruly dogs.
Going for a walk should be the best experience a human and dog can share. Instead it's a chore when your big, bouncy Labrador retriever is pulling so hard that it hurts your arm. It's frightening when your usually gentle rescue dog suddenly snarls at another dog. And the fun is gone when your Yorkie barks so much at other dogs that you can't even say hello to your neighbors.
The good news is that, with the right equipment, some thought and (in some cases) a little practice, almost every dog can turn into a great walking companion. Here's how to do it: Get the right equipment
Modern engineering has made old-fashioned collars and harnesses obsolete for dogs that pull. Try these new products, and you might find all your problems are almost magically solved: Front-clip harness: The first thing to try is a front-clip harness. Traditional harnesses attach to the leash with a clip on the back. These old-fashioned harnesses actually encourage dogs to pull -- because a dog's natural reflex is to pull against something that constrains it. (This is why sled dogs pull naturally in their harnesses.) The front-clip harnesses have the clip for the leash at the chest instead of the back. When the dog pulls forward, the harness naturally and gently pulls the dog around to face the owner. For most dogs, the tugging is over.
Front-clip harnesses were introduced to the market a couple of years ago and are available under different brand names from several manufacturers. One of the best comes from BeBop USA in Gresham.

5/15/07 (our miniature white stallion) has been diagnosed with liver disease at the age of 19. He is recovering slowly and with lots of prayers. We hope he will recover enough to be able to entertain children at the local libraries this summer.
