Frequently Asked Questions
We offer a range of Biothane dog walking and training accessories including Traffic handles, safety straps, long line keepers, clicker straps, utility belts, keychains, and more. We also offer non-BioThane walking accessories like poop bags and waste bag holders, all designed to pair seamlessly with our BioThane® gear.
Yes! Our BioThane® accessories are made with solid brass or Sport (carabiners made from aircraft grade aluminum paired with and black steel) hardware. All are water proof, odor proof, and easy to clean.
Most accessories clip to a leash D‑ring or can be attached via a carabiner to our Utility Belt or your own waist belt. Some items (like leash keepers or traffic handles) are intended for specific products; see each product page for instructions.
Soak in warm soapy water, clean with a towel or sponge, and rinse with water. For tough messes, a light scrub with a soft sponge or toothbrush works well. Always store dry. Solid brass will not rust, but may develop a natural patina over time. Black‑coated hardware may show cosmetic wear or rust over time, but strength isn’t compromised.
Our BioThane® accessories are available in our full range of colors; perfect for matching your other walking gear. Many of our accessories have custom width and length options to fit you and your dog.
With all of our color options, we understand that it’s hard to choose! Due to the hundreds of possible color and leash combos, we’re not able to offer a photo preview of every leash color.
Here are a few resources to help you choose your colors:
- Check out our Color Combos Photo Gallery with dozens of real life product photos
- Grab access to our Digital BioThane Colors Guide + Leash Simulator (a free Canva tool to help you design your leash)

Got this traffic handle for my dog’s harness that doesn’t have an extra strap! It’s sturdy like all the other HTH leashes! Got a different color than my leash and harness so it’s easy to see and grab when I need to!
A different color is such a great idea! Makes it stand out and easy to grab when you cannot look directly for it. Thank you Megan, we appreciate you!
these things are awesome. :) it’s the perfect length to leave on a harness during a walk or hike for easy grabbing lol. however i wouldn’t leave it hooked onto their collar, as it’s just barely long enough for them to possibly get their feet stuck through the loop. 10/10 product. dirt and mud washes right out and the automatic lock is amazing.
Thank you Willow! Yes, safety first - always. Glad you are loving your new traffic handle!

Thank you Sheri!
I love having this separate from the leash because it’s always where it should be (never gets trapped under his legs when he’s running around like the leash gets sometimes). I was a little worried that it wouldn’t connect to the harness with the leash, but his Ruffwear harness has space for both to connect at the same time, although I frequently connect the leash to the end of the handle for a little added length.
Fantastic product and customer service, are my go to for biothane leashes
Thank you so much, Robert! 💛 We're honored to be your go-to for BioThane leashes! It means so much to hear you've had a great experience with both our products and our customer service. Thank you for your continued support—we truly appreciate it and look forward to being part of many more adventures with you and your pup! 🐾✨
Love everything about all of my HTH gear! All of this is so helpful!
Thank you Ali! So glad you love HTH and our functionality!
We needed something that we could grab into but wouldn’t drag on the ground and this is perfect! We already gone on so many hikes with it and it is just what we needed. We also love the auto locking carabiner
So happy to hear your adventures are enjoyable with your new Traffic Handle! Thank you Lauren!
Another great product to make street crossing a breeze!
So glad you are finding your new traffic handle so functional! Thank you Yael!
We love the traffic handle we got for our Doberman! The yellow looks great and it gives quick easy access in case we need to pull him back from traffic or another dog/person. We also like the peace of mind of having him in the car without a leash attached because we know we can use the traffic handle in an emergency if we needed to get him out of the car quickly.
Thank you kindly Jessica! We appreciate your love for High Tail Hikes!
We use this as a handle on the end of our long line to turn it into a long leash or as a handle on the back of our dog’s harness. It works great and is comfortable and easy to hold. We opted for the bright orange “poppy” color so that it was easy to find regardless of where it was attached.
So happy you are finding multiple functions for your handle! Thank you Emily!
I was looking for something to help keep my dog close to me when we were at a stoplight. However, he is trained you never know. This helps keep him close to my side where I can keep him safe. Best ever, and a must-have!
