www.biothane-zubehoer.de
  
"At Biothane Zubehör you can find a wide range of many great products made out of Biothane.
Each item will be individually created for the four-legged friend and made according to own wishes. Almost everything is feasable out of Biothane. There are of course already made sample items available from time to time.

As an additional decoration of Collars and Leads there are a wide range of decorating studs, rhinestone sliders, as well as rhinestones are available. The range is continuously increasing.

Furthermore, the opprotunity is given to individually engrave Collars, Leads, etc. Moreover, personalised keyrings, wristles and more are available."

Who is behind Biothane Zubehör?

"Biothane Zubehör was established by Alena Reinert who lives with her partner and small 'zoo' in the idyllic Alfeld an der Leine. They are both self-employed and due to their Kangal-Mix Shelby, Alena came to Biothane. As it usually is she just wanted to have one lead. However, she did not stop with one lead... There are so many great possibilities and new ideas buzzed daily through her head which all wanted to be realized and were looking for new necks to wear."

Rocky woth his Biothane Lead:

 
 
Review: Ich very happy with my Biothane Lead! It looks very nice and noble, and as it is darkbrown in colour partly looks like leather. The quality of the lead is also very good. It is very well made and has sturdy snap hook.
The beauty of the lead is that it is waterproof and it therefore stays dry in the rain. I have never seen that in any lead before which is why I am absolutely thrilled about it. Furthermore, the lead is very comfortable in the hand as it is very soft and flexible, and adjusts well to the hand. The 9mm width is also more than enough for Rocky. Moreover, I especially like about Biothane is that it is available in numerous colours (no matter if dark, light or bright), types (no matter if Grippy, Beta or Translucent) and widths (between 9 - 25mm), and thus, every wish can truly be satisfied.
An alround superb lead!
 
 
 
Biothane Keyring


Describtion of the Biothane Keyring: "The musthave for every key... No matter if dog breed with picture, dog name or particular lettering, everything is possible.
 
With every purchase the chosen width(s), colour and lettering/picture need to be specified. Furthermore, the engraving on darker coloured Biothane is not as clear. On request decorating studs can be attached.
The Biothane Keyrings are available in 2 varieties;
  • Variaty 1: Beta Biothane Keyring in the simple design. Widths of 12mm, 16mm, 19mm and 25mm are possible.
  •  Variaty 2: Beta Biothane Keyring in the double design. Widths of 25mm/19mm, 19mm/16mm and 16mm/12mm are possible.
  •  Perssonal motives: True to the original picture of the four-legged friend, an individual engraving of a keyring is possible (Of course engravings are also possible for Collars, Leads and more)

 Rocky with the Biothane Keyrings:

  
Review: The Biothane keyrings are just awesome! Especially Rocky's keyring turned out to be great. The pictures are very nicec and so is the font which is also brilliant.
I am and remain totally fascinated about the keyrings made out of Biothane. I think it's a gread idea as they can be personalised with pictures and writing (which you don't have to). Thus, you can create an individual and unique keyring which no one else has! Thereby, the varity and colour can be chosen whereby pictures on lighter coloured Biothane stand out more whcih is why I chose the colour pastel blue.
So if you are looking for a unique keyring or would like to give one as a gift you are just right at Biothane Zubehör (accessories)!

 


Overall review

Overall I am very satisdied with the Biothane products by Biothane Zubehör. The products are very nice, of high-quality, sturdy and long-lasting.
The contact with Alena Reinert was extremely friendly and helpful. She tries everything to satisfy her customer's wishes and she does her best in doing so. The products were all individually made, done very quickly and the delivery was also very quick. My experiences with Biothane Zubehör and Alena Reinert were thus very positive.

Rocky is wearing his Lupus Fidelis Collar made out of wickerwork with roller buckle in size S:


Review: Ich am very happy with the Lupus Fidelis Braided Collar. It turned out very well due to it's nice braiding, as well as it's colours. I am not walking Rocky on a collar (but rather on a harness), but Rocky is wearing a collar with an ID tag in the garden and as the collar is very light in weight he seems very comfortable wearing it. Due to the roller buckle it is also very easy to adjust.

Review: I think it's great that the Lupus Fidelis Throwing Ball is floatable and therefore especially suitable for dogs that love water. Due to it's hand loop it is also very easy to throw the Throwing Ball very far and ensures fun while playing.
Rocky was not too confinced about the Throwing ball and preferred the Fleecy Toy as the Ball itself was quite heavy for him. It's a pitty that the colour choices are at random as I am personally someone who preferres choosing the colours myself.

Overall, I am very happy with the Lupus Fidelis products. I especially like the Braided Lead. Rockys favourite product is definitely the Fleecy Toy and he constantly comes happily running to me, wanting to play.

We have a Baldolino Twin Lead made out of Leather..


 Rocky with his Baldolino Twin Lead made out of Leather:


The Baldolino Twin Lead can be simply made into a Single Lead when walking with only one dog.

Additionally, the Baldolino Twin Lead can simply be used again for two dogs.

Here are some pictures of the Baldolino Twin Lead when used by a dog owner when walking two dogs:


Review: I think the Twin Lead by Baldolino is a great invention for dog owners with two dogs. I personally don't like coupler leads as I think that each individual dog does not have enough freedom. However, the Baldolino Twin Lead is constructed in a way so that it functions as an individual lead for each dog which is only attached via the hand strap in order to hold it. Thus, each individual dog has enough freedom to sniff.
Furthermore, I really like the selection. Whether Biothane, Leather or Webbing, for every dog owner there is a suitable lead available.
What I find especially great about the Twin Lead is that it is very well thought out in that one of the both leads is a bit shorter and thus can be attached to the other lead via a D-ring; therefore the twin lead is made into a single lead and can thus be used for only one dog if the other dog should be left off lead. Absolutely great!
The quality of the leads is also great.
In general, the Baldolino Twin Lead is an all round great lead for dog owners with two dogs!
