DECEMBER 2025 - NEW CLIP OPTIONS NOW AVAILABLE!! Read more about them here. Overview A reliable longline can turn training sessions from stressful to smooth. The BioThane Dog Longline is built to give your pup freedom to explore while keeping you in control. Whether you're practising recall, working with a young pup, or managing an energetic dog, this lead gives you extra reach without the tangles or soggy mess of standard lines. Unlike rope or fabric, BioThane doesn't soak up dirt, water, or odours, so it's always ready for the next walk — making it a great option alongside our custom dog collars, even after a muddy run through the park or a splash at the beach. Tough, colourful, and easy to customise, it's a training tool that works as hard as you and your dog do. Product Features Stays clean, even after muddy walks: BioThane doesn't hold onto water, muck, or that damp dog smell. A quick rinse under the tap and it's fresh again, ready for the next outing. Lightweight in all conditions: Rope leads get heavy when wet, but this one doesn't change. Even if your pup runs through puddles or swims at the beach, the line stays easy in your hands. Perfect for recall training: Gives your dog space to zoom and explore while you keep control. Great for young dogs still learning to come back, or rescues who need a little extra safety net. Adjusts to your style: Some owners like an extra handle, some want more length. You can add those touches so the line works the way you and your dog train together. Looks sharp as well as tough: It has the feel of leather but comes in bright colours. Whether you're at the park or down the river, you won't lose sight of your line or your dog. Specifications Material: BioThane coated webbing Standard length: 8 metres (custom lengths available on request) Width options: 13 mm (break strength 220 kg) & 16 mm (break strength 280 kg) Hardware: Optional traffic handles, durable clip fittings Colours: Wide range available (subject to stock) Benefits Most leads get heavy, smelly, and frayed over time. BioThane longlines avoid all that. They're strong enough for big dogs, but light enough for small ones, and the waterproof coating means no damp rope smell in the car after training. Because they don't snag or soak, they're safer for recall practice, letting your dog run free while you know you can reel them back if needed. The custom options also mean you get a line that works for your dog's needs, not just a one-size-fits-all. Usage Instructions Clip the longline to your dog's harness (we recommend avoiding collar use for training). Let your pup roam while you keep hold of the other end, or allow the line to drag if you're working in a safe, open space. For added control, attach a removable traffic handle to the D-ring at the end; easy to grab when you need it, easy to take off when you don't. Care and Maintenance Wipe down with a damp cloth or wash with mild soap after use. Hang to dry naturally. Avoid harsh cleaners, solvents, or machine washing. Store flat or loosely coiled in a dry place to maintain flexibility. Important Notes (Don'ts) Not chew-proof. Don't leave the longline with a dog that chews leads. Don't use with a collar for strong pullers; pair with a harness for safety. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can damage the BioThane coating. Compatibility Suitable for all breeds and sizes, from puppies to large working dogs. Best paired with a harness for training sessions to prevent neck strain. Great for recall training, safe exploration, and controlled outdoor play. Frequently Asked Questions Why choose BioThane over rope or nylon?BioThane is stronger, lighter, and waterproof.
