BioThane Safety Strap - Sport (Autolocking Carabiner)
Our Sport Safety Strap is made from our Small (3/8" width) biothane and our anodized aluminum autolocking carabiners. Three length options are available - 10", 12", and 14", measured from the end of one carabiner to the end of the other. A Safety Strap is intended to be used as a secondary back up point of attachment in case of equipment failure. A Safety Strap can connect collar to harness, or leash to collar if the leash is clipped to your dog's harness. To use the latter option, make sure the safety strap at the leash end is attached to the fixed eye opening at the bottom of your leash snap. View our Safety Strap demo here.
To select a size, measure either from your dog's collar D Ring to harness clip; or from collar D Ring to the eye opening of your dog's leash snap (the base of the snap where the leash feeds through; below the swivel) while it is attached to the harness (depending on intended use). Allow for several inches of slack to allow your dog to move freely while the strap is in use. If in doubt, size up to allow for movement. If you would like a Safety Strap in a custom size not offered here, please contact us.
Please note that while a safety strap adds a layer of security, it is not a guarantee. It is your responsibility to ensure the safety of your dog at all times.
