Pet spray training system
An pet spray training system is provided. The system includes a sound, vibration or motion sensor that is configured to generate electrical signals in response to an occurrence. The system may include a filter, which is tuned to recognize a dog barking event, and generate an electrical signal in response to recognizing an input signal indicative of a dog's bark. The system further includes a removably pressurized gas reservoir that holds a deterrent fluid under pressure. The system additionally comprises a motor module configured to rotate a shaft in response to the electrical signal from the filter. The canister has a spray nozzle for releasing fluid that affects the dog's senses. In response to rotating the shaft, the spray nozzle is depressed.
Dog collar-leash combination
A dog collar-leash combination including a collar (1) and a leash (2) in a housing (20), which leash is made available by means of a rolling and unrolling mechanism (21). The leash (2) in the housing (20) can be unwound against a spring force. An outer end of the leash (2) has a grip (22). The collar (1) has first and second free ends (11, 12) and the housing (20) for the leash (2) is provided on the first end (11) and a loop (13), through which the leash (2) is fed, is provided on the second end (12).
Clip for pet waste bags
A narrow channel created by one or more channel walls. The channel is engineered with narrow dimensions so as to carry out its function of supporting small bags filled with waste. The channel may be formed as a single body, attached to another body, or formed or incorporated into another body or device, such as, but not limited to, animal leashes, retractable animal leashes, pet waste bag dispensers, pet harnesses, and pooper scoopers. Bags containing animal waste may be inserted into the channel. The bags may be supported by the channel. Additional small bodies including but not limited to rings or cord loops may be inserted into and supported by the channel.
Spraying leash assembly
A spraying leash assembly includes a leash unit that has a retractable leash such that the leash can be attached to a collar of a dog for walking the dog. A reservoir is coupled to the leash unit and the reservoir is hollow to contain a liquid. A spray nozzle is integrated into the reservoir to spray the fluid outwardly from the reservoir onto the dog thereby distracting the dog from barking. A light emitter is coupled to the reservoir to emit light. A handle is coupled to the reservoir and the handle can be gripped for carrying the reservoir and the leash unit. A speaker is integrated into the handle for emitting an audible sound to distract the dog from barking.
Combination leash and hose
A combination animal leash and dog hose, as contemplated herein, may comprise a leash assembly partially disposed about a hose assembly, such that the leash assembly and the hose assembly are independently tensionable from each other. Such a leash assembly may comprise a leash retention member and handle member, which may be disposed to be length adjustable for the easy attachment about an attachment point, such as a water source, for ensuring an animal remains tethered without the need for the application of force by the user. Such a hose assembly may comprise an inlet and an outlet, disposed in fluid communication by a hose member, such that the hose assembly may be attached to a water source for the easy washing of an animal. Accordingly, such an apparatus may allow a user to wash an animal without exerting any force in controlling the animal.
Powered smart dog tether
An animal tether system and method wherein the rate of extension and retraction of the tether and/or the length of the tether can be actively controlled at least in part as a function of the angular direction and/or speed and/or length of which the tether extends/retracts. The system can be used to maintain an animal in a non-circular boundary, such as a rectangular space, by controlling how far the tether can extend at certain angular positions. The system also allows a user to block off certain areas within a space from access by the animal.
Magnetic connector for selectively joining a leash to an animal collar
A magnetic connector providing a unique magnetic coupling system for quick, one-handed attachment and detachment of a leash to a pet collar or harness is disclosed. The magnetic connector has a cap with an outer armature for leash attachment and an inner female receptacle element for receiving a male insertion element previously attached to a collar. The male insertion element is in the shape of a star polygon having multiple attached magnets. The female receptacle element has a complementary aperture shape for insertion of the star polygon. The cap includes multiple attached magnets of opposite polarity to the star polygon's attached magnets. Upon insertion of the cap onto the star polygon, the cap undergoes rotation caused by the attractive magnetic forces between the star polygon's and the cap's magnets, locking the cap in place until the cap is manually rotated in the opposite direction and lifted off the star polygon.
FECES HOLDER CONFIGURED FOR RELEASABLE ATTACHMENT TO A DOG LEASH AND METHOD OF USE
Embodiments of the invention as described relate to containment and transport of bagged dog feces to a place for disposal. Transporting dog feces is an unpleasant task and the embodiments described herein relate to a discrete and easy to use holder that attaches to the handle of a dog leash. The embodiments of holders are designed and configured for easy attachment and removal from a dog leash. The holders can be releasably secured to the handle of a dog leash at any desired distance for the leash handle. The holders typically comprise opposing convex sides that come together to form a solid base and top, and have perforated sides for ventilation.
PORTABLE CARRIER BAG FOR DISPOSING PET WASTE
Proposed is a portable carrier bag for disposing pet waste in which a tissue storage space portion storing tissues or wet tissues and a pet waste storage space portion storing pet waste are separated from each other, an opening and closing member to open and close the tissue storage space portion is formed of a magnet, a fastener is installed along both lateral surfaces and a lower surface of the pet waste storage space portion, openings are formed on the rear surface of the pet waste storage space portion, a loop for connection with a pet leash is formed in the center of the top surface of the pet waste storage space portion or loops for connection with a shoulder strap are formed on the upper parts of both lateral surfaces thereof, and the portable carrier bag is made of a synthetic resin material.
RELEASABLE COUPLING DEVICE
A releasable coupling device comprises a body comprising an aperture and a sleeve positioned at least partially around, and moveable relative to, at least a portion of the body. The sleeve is moveable between an open position in which at least a portion of the aperture is at least partially unoccluded so as to permit coupling of the device to an attachment receivable within the aperture, and a closed position in which at least a portion of the aperture is at least partially occluded so as to resist decoupling of the of the device by removal of an attachment from the aperture. The device defines a track configured to guide an attachment receivable within the aperture along a movement path.
