Looking to get some 20cm (or close to) dogbones to make some long draws. I searched the internet to buy just the Wild Country Helium dogbones, but wasn't able to find anything besides a complete quickdraw. They are 10mm dyneema so an alternative can be found. Anyone got a recommendation?

You can find Cypher dyneema bones pretty easily. I just picked up some of the metolius "long draw" captive slings and am a big fan.

I cannot vouch for this site and it may be a scam, but $2 per sling.  https://www.store-climbing.com/climbing-technology-sales-extender-dy-pro-quickdraw-sling/

The design of the long camp dyneema dogbones does a great job of keeping the rope biner oriented properly. I’d recommend those

Try the DMM Express 11mm dogbone in 25cm length.

Yes, or get Trad Alpha draws on sale and have a biner that I like even better than the helium (nose is juuuust a bit smaller than the helium, which I’ve always disliked for it’s large size).
   Then get camp Dyons for the bolt end and park the spare alpha trads for when the first ones groove out

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
