The invention discloses a light up buckle for use with a dog collar. This buckle design comprises a Plastic Computer Board (PCB) which incorporates LED's, a mini-USB port, a switch and a rechargeable battery. The lithium-ion battery is housed within the buckle assembly and is protected from water by means of rubber seals when the buckle is in the closed or locked position.

The main components are molded from translucent plastic, to allow the LED's to illuminate the assembly when switched on. There are multiple settings for the LED's to allow for a steady illumination or various flashing/pulsing settings. The buckle is intended for illumination at night to aid the visibility of an owner's canine that wears the buckle on the collar.

The buckle can be fitted onto a collar strap or body harness and so has multiple uses and applications.

The buckle design is rounded and has smooth edges to ensure no discomfort is experienced by the canine. There is a trigger switch located on the underside of the buckle which is operated by pressing a rubber button that protrudes from the plastic casing.

The entire assembly is water-resistant, by means of two rubber components that interlock when the buckle is closed. The pressure between these two rubber plugs ensures water cannot get access to the electronics and battery.

A no choke, control harness for a quadruped with left and right slidably adjustable fixed aperture removable leg loops which are joined by a main harness strap that traverses over the back and interconnects the frontal left and right leg loops with rear body loop and having a plurality of leash connection points for an adaptive leading experience. Other embodiments are described and shown.

A smart pet collar apparatus for pet training and safety includes a collar having a plurality of adjustment apertures extending from the collar. A buckle frame has a buckle cavity, a first buckle bar, and a second buckle bar. A prong is coupled to the second buckle bar and is selectively engageable with the plurality of adjustment apertures. A battery is coupled within the buckle cavity. A charge port, a microprocessor, a GPS tracker, a transceiver, and a plurality of control buttons are coupled to the buckle frame. The charge port is in operational communication with the battery. The GPS chip and the transceiver are in operational communication with the battery and the microprocessor. The transceiver is configured to interact with a smartphone.

A food or water container for use by animals. The container may be formed from a flexible and thus collapsible material for safety and portability. The container may be further provided with a strap for hanging the container during use and may be especially adapted for use in a moving vehicle, with the strap enabling pendular movement of the container to lessen the effect of movement of the vehicle and reduce spillage. Additional features such as a spill guard, and a removable, multi-purpose strap are also contemplated.

A pet collar for preventing pet theft includes a latch assembly selectively movable between an open position and a closed position. The latch assembly has a front plate cover, a back plate cover, a cam pivotally secured to and positioned in between the front and back plate covers, a first eye extending from a surface of the front plate cover, and a second eye extending from a surface of the cam. The latch assembly includes a cord having a first end secured to the latch assembly and a second end secured to a portion of the cord. The cord extends through a channel defined by the front and back plate covers.

A smart collar to be worn by an animal includes an imaging device configured to capture a plurality of images, and a microprocessor in communication with the imaging device to receive the plurality of captured images in real-time. The microprocessor is configured to perform at least one action selected from the group consisting of: analyze the plurality of captured images, compare the plurality of captured images with stored images, recognize at least one of a person, an animal, and an object depicted in at least one of the plurality of images, identify a behavior of the animal, issue a corrective action, issue an approving action, and issue an alert to a user.

The present invention relates to a pet collar device capable of securing a leash. In one embodiment, the leash having a static portion and a retractable line portion integrally attached to the collar and is housed in a housing. A free end of the leash is accessible to a user and has a loop fastener which is releasably fastened to a hook fastener positioned on the collar. The leash is extended by pulling the retractable line from an opening of the housing to expand the length of the leash for use by a user. In another embodiment, the leash is stored in a zippered pouch, wherein the pouch is attached to the collar and includes a zippered fastener for accessing the stored leash. One end of the leash is attached to the collar and the opposite free end is accessible for pulling out the leash from the pouch.

A collar unit device is described comprising a receiving cavity for receiving a metal electrode probe, wherein at least one elastomeric ring encircles the metal electrode probe, wherein the at least one elastomeric ring mechanically isolates the metal electrode probe from the receiving cavity. The device includes a piezoelectric element. The device includes a retainer component for maintaining the piezoelectric element in a secured position, wherein the secured position comprises the piezoelectric element maintaining contact with the metal electrode probe. The device includes the metal electrode probe for detecting vibrations of one or more acoustic events and transferring the vibrations to the piezoelectric element through the contact, the piezoelectric element for receiving the vibrations of one or more acoustic events, the receiving the vibrations including generating an electrical signal proportional to the frequency and magnitude of the vibrations, and at least one processor for receiving and processing the electrical signal.

The invention comprises a lightweight, simple and comfortable pet harness with waste bag dispensing and storage pockets, and reflective piping on the harness edges and zipper pockets. The harness has only two single buckle straps which are designed to tuck into sections of the harness to avoid poking or sticking the pet.

A system for training animals includes a hand-held device and a remote device, where the remote device applies a stimulus when a user presses a button or trigger on the hand-held device. The amount of pressure applied is measured by a pressure sensitive transducer and transformed into proportional transducer signals. These transducer signals are transmitted to the remote device, which then applies a stimulus to an animal being trained. The amplitude of the applied stimulus corresponds to the amplitude of the transducer signals; a trainer can thus precisely control the intensity of the stimulus by applying and relieving pressure on the button. The type of stimulus applied is controlled based on the position of a rotary switch on the hand-held device. Sensor data generated by specialized sensors in the remote device may be transmitted to the hand-held device to provide the user with sensory feedback.
