A storage tray for clipper and trimmer cutting blades for use in pet grooming. The storage tray is securable to a vertical arm of a conventional pet grooming table allowing the table top to remain obstacle free. The storage tray includes a fan for faster heat dissipation from heated cutting blades. In addition, or as an alternative, marble surfaces are used for the storage tray slanted surfaces to enhance heat dissipation. An extension tray can be coupled to the storage tray with receptacles for scissors, clippers and a cell phone.

Embodiments of the present invention provide improved livestock foot bath solutions that are capable of maintaining a low pH during longer periods of use in order to help prevent the metal salts from precipitating out of the solution and rendering the solution ineffective. Embodiments of the present invention provide improved livestock foot bath solutions that include one or more weak organic acids, such as polyprotic organic acids, in the aqueous solution, along with the dissolved metal salts. Embodiments of the invention may also include sulfuric acid, or some other strong acid, together with citric acid and the dissolved metal salts in the aqueous solution.

A system and method of capturing washing agents and washed item particulates. The washing agents and washed item particulates are contained in a pad placed over an existing surface where they are captured. The washing agents and washed items are sent to a central depository for recycling and separation for clean disposal. The depository allows for re-usable portions of the washing agents to be re-used as part of the system while unusable residuals are separated for proper treatment or disposal.

The present invention relates to a novel protective flexible sock for animals. The sock is designed to appear like a shoe, and protects the lower leg and paws of animals from hot and cold surfaces, debris, road salt, germs and injury without impacting the animal's gait. The sock is made from a washable fabric, as well as weatherproof material coated with plastic including a heat-resistant felt insole and a rubber gripping exterior sole surface. The insole provides insulation to the paws of the animals and the rubber sole provides increased traction and stability. The sock protects pets from injuries and discomfort such as burning of the paws or developing sores, gait issues and mobility issues with their hips/joints without causing discomfort while wearing the socks. The fibers of the insulating insole absorb heat, swelling and thickening to fill the gaps in the sock.

The present invention provides improved movable footbaths for the treatment of hooved animals. The footbaths include a watertight basin with sidewalls and end walls. The footbaths are movable for use in temporary or permanent locations. The footbaths include a cleat in the lower surface of the basin adjacent to a removable and replaceable ramp, and the ramp has a rough upper surface that provides friction for hooved animals allowing them to easily exit the footbath. After wear and tear, the ramp may be pried out or otherwise removed and replaced with a new ramp. Embodiments of the present footbath may be used to repair existing permanent footbaths, instead of destroying and rebuilding them, by inserting the movable footbath into the permanent footbath.

A method of, and apparatus for, controlling pests on an animal, comprising combining generally immiscible ingredients, maintaining the ingredients in a combined state by controlling the fluids pathway so that the immiscible ingredients are contained together in correct proportions under pressure, and discharging selected desired quantities of the combined ingredients through a nozzle that imparts turbulence in one or more applications on the animal.

A multifunctional soft pet paw cleaning cup includes a cup body made of a soft material. One end of the cup body is an open end. Soft spikes extending towards the center of the cup body are provided on the inner surface of the side wall and/or the inner surface of the bottom wall of the cup body, and the soft spike is made of a soft material. A mold for preparing the paw cleaning cup includes an inner mold core, an outer mold core, an upper mold and a lower mold. The outer mold core has an annular peripheral wall. A first soft spike hole is formed inside the peripheral wall. The inner mold core is provided at the inner side of the outer mold core. The lower mold is located below the outer mold core, and the inner mold core is fixed below the upper mold.

A polygonal one-piece foldable water basin, comprising a water basin body, wherein the water basin body is connected with at least one water outlet, a supporting frame is provided at an inner side of the water outlet close to an edge thereof, a tarpaulin is provided in an outer side of the water basin body; the tarpaulin comprises a mesh and a base cloth; the base cloth is made of high strength terylene and/or chinlon, coated with PVC paste at both sides thereof and dried; the mesh is a high strength square mesh, and the mesh is connected and welded to the base cloth by high temperature processes to form the tarpaulin; by providing the tarpaulin at an outer portion of the water basin the water basin is reinforced, the tarpaulin is provided with the high strength square mesh, the mesh is inelastic and enclosed in the tarpaulin.

A pet hair removal apparatus has a plurality of engagement members. The apparatus has a handle and connected base member. At the end of the handle is a pointed end defined by a pointed tip. The pointed end and pointed tip operates in an operational engagement position to remove pet hair from the surface of an inanimate object, such as a couch or other fabric. The pointed end removes hair or other debris that are in or near a crease or crevice of the fabric. This operational engagement position is one of a number of other operational engagement positions for the pet hair removal apparatus.
