Description
Standard BioThane Safety Connector
Backup Leash Attachment for Added Security
The Standard BioThane Safety Connector is a simple but critical piece of gear designed to add an extra layer of security when using a prong collar, martingale, or harness as your primary leash attachment. Acting as a backup connection, this safety connector clips from your leash to your dog’s flat collar—helping reduce the risk of accidental escapes if primary equipment fails or loosens.
Built for everyday use, training sessions, and high-distraction environments, it provides peace of mind without adding bulk.
Beyond the Donation

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our handmade BioThane® gear, production timelines, shipping, care, sizing, and custom orders.
How do I care for my BioThane® gear? +
BioThane® is waterproof, odor-resistant, and easy to maintain. Most dirt wipes off with warm water and mild soap. For heavier messes, soak in diluted oxiclean (unscented), then rinse and dry thoroughly. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to strong DEET-based insect repellents, which may affect the coating over time.
What if my dog chews through an item? +
Our gear is designed for durability, but no product is chew-proof. Damage caused by chewing is not covered under warranty. If something happens unexpectedly, reach out — we’re always happy to review the situation and see what options may be available.
What is considered normal wear and tear? +
Normal wear includes cosmetic signs of use such as minor scuffs, scratches, fading, or coating wear on hardware over time. Black hardware may naturally show silver underneath with regular use — this is expected and cosmetic only. Wear from chewing, misuse, improper storage, or unsafe restraint is not covered.
How much is shipping and how long will my order take? +
Our production time for most orders is 2-3 weeks unless otherwise specified. Once shipped, delivery typically takes 1–5 business days depending on location. Shipping rates are calculated at checkout, with free shipping available on orders over $75. Need it sooner? We also offer expedited processing options when available.
How are your products packaged? +
Orders are packaged simply and intentionally to protect your gear while minimizing waste. We focus on practical packaging that gets your order safely to you — nothing excessive.
Do you offer returns or exchanges? +
Because most items are handmade to order, we generally do not accept returns on custom gear. If there is a sizing issue, please contact us — we’ll always do our best to help find a solution. If there is an issue with workmanship or a mistake on our end, we’ll make it right.
Can I cancel my order? +
Orders may be canceled within 24 hours of purchase. After that, production may already be underway and cancellations are no longer guaranteed.
Do you offer wholesale pricing? +
Yes. We work with select retailers, trainers, and partners who align with our brand and values. Contact us for more information about wholesale opportunities.
How do I choose the right size? +
Visit our sizing guide page to learn more about sizing. If you’re between sizes or unsure, reach out before ordering — we’re happy to help you choose the best fit for your dog.
Can BioThane® get wet? +
Yes — BioThane® is fully waterproof and made for muddy trails, rainy walks, dock diving, and everyday adventure. It won’t absorb water, hold odor, or stay soggy like traditional materials.

My girl slipped her collar one time and I'll forever be traumatized. This gives me peace of mind. Another excellently crafted piece from bolderk9.
The price, speed of shipping, and quality makes this an instant favorite, thanks!!
The color I needed to match my leash was not available, seller ordered it for me. A must have for dogs in training
This collar safety clip is well-made, sturdy, and adds an extra degree of relief when walking my dog on a herm springer. It’s a bit large, so maybe not appropriate for small dogs, but definitely matches the description and works as intended. Take account of the measurements carefully to make sure this is the right fit for your dog’s gear.
Thank you, Felicity! We’re glad the Standard BioThane Safety Connector feels sturdy and works well as a backup with your dog’s prong collar. We also appreciate you highlighting the importance of checking the measurements for the right fit.
awesone piece of gear!
Thank you so much, John! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the Standard BioThane Safety Connector and that it's been an awesome addition to your gear. We really appreciate your support and hope it serves you well for years to come!
Great safety strap, nice quality
Thanks so much! I’m glad you’re happy with the quality of the Standard BioThane Safety Connector and that it’s been a great safety addition. I really appreciate your support!
Well-made, and excellent peace of mind knowing if one of my baby’s gear items was to fail, we have a backup.
Thanks so much for your kind words! I’m really glad the Standard BioThane Safety Connector gives you that extra peace of mind out and about with your pup. I truly appreciate your support!
Disappointed with the clips as an owner of a German Shepard, they do not fit around most harnesses, collars, or leashes to ensure safety.
With that said, this product is of good quality. I found that when replacing the standard clasps, which weren't rated for my dog's pull weight, with hook snaps (lobster claws), I couldn't replace the x4 retention screws and studs, which offer insight into the strap’s retention of the clips. Additionally, the Biothane strap is stiff and heavy-duty, which has its pros and cons when positioning it. It is good because it will hold the dog's weight, but it is likely to break at the clip's swivel should the metal prong collar fail.
Overall, the manufacturer was prompt, and communication was fantastic. This product does work, but it may not be right for every dog or every need.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I’m sorry to hear the clip fit wasn’t ideal for your setup, though I’m glad the Standard BioThane Safety Connector itself met expectations for quality and strength. I really appreciate your thoughtful notes and kind words about communication, and I’m always happy to help privately if you’d like to explore alternatives.
This is extremely well made and does what it is said to do. I do wish I had read the description better and ordered the shorter one though.
Thank you so much! We’re glad to hear the Safety Connector is well made and working exactly as intended. We really appreciate the feedback and are grateful you took the time to share your experience.
