A car safety device for pets includes a fixing frame mounted in a seat cushion and a seat cushion cover. The seat cushion with the fixing frame is placed into the seat cushion cover and one end of a support rod of the fixing frame is protruding from the seat cushion cover. While in use, the device is placed on a car seat and an anchor member on the support rod of the fixing frame is connected to a support bar of the car seat. Then a pet carrier bag is disposed on the seat cushion cover and a second connecting member of the pet carrier bag is connected with a first connecting member on the seat cushion cover to fix the pet carrier bag on the present device. Thereby the pet carrier bag is firmly mounted on the car seat and pet safety is improved.

Systems and methods define a stimulation pattern for a juvenile product utilizing a mobile device that executes a mobile application that is linked to the juvenile product. The method comprises the step of recognizing, by the mobile device when executing the mobile app, the user-defined stimulation pattern for the juvenile product. The stimulation pattern can be a vibration pattern or a motion pattern, and can be detected in a number of different ways by the mobile device. The method further comprises the step of determining control signals for the actuator(s) of the juvenile product based on the user-defined stimulation pattern that is recognized by the mobile device. The method further comprises the step of, in response to receiving a command to execute the user-defined stimulation pattern, controlling the actuator(s) of the juvenile product based on the stored control signals for the user-defined stimulation pattern.

A lightweight dog harness wrap for providing a secure, comfortable leash connection to a small to medium size dog. The harness wrap is comprised of a durable and reversible fabric material shaped to wrap around the torso and neck areas of the dog and is preferably secured and adjusted with Velcro. A nylon webbing strap handle is provided on the harness wrap and arranged longitudinally along the dog's back for lifting up the dog. Of particular importance is the location of the leash connection point at the rear of the harness wrap and located in the middle of the dog's torso and at the center of mass. By locating the leash connection in the middle of the dog's body, the leash pulling forces are distributed and dissipated at the dog's torso in order to eliminate harmful forces at the neck, choking and potential trachea damage, as well as damage to the hips from torquing at the neck. The dog is more balanced during walking. The harness wrap's advanced material and fabrics regulate the dog's body temperature by providing both warming and cooling properties. Nervous or anxious dogs are calmed with a feeling of protection and security with the harness wrap's swaddle-fit enclosure.
