A treadmill may include two separate left and right belts rotating around two sets of rollers, four legs having an adjustable height via air suspension to customize an inclination of the treadmill, a thermoelectric assembly, a fragrance assembly having a rotating fragrance cartridge to emit various smells toward a user of the treadmill, a display on which exercise programs are played, and an attachment module having a dispensing tray on which treats are dispensed. A handle of the treadmill may have a sensor to sense a height and front-rear position, and a belt divider provided between the left and right belts may have position or proximity sensors to sense a left-right position. An inclination of the treadmill may be automatically adjusted according to positions detected by the sensors, and the fragrance assembly, attachment module, and inclination may be automatically operated in accordance with an exercise program played on the display.

A pet puzzle feeder includes: a housing; a treat chamber, a portion of which is rotatably received in a cavity of the housing; and an access cover. The housing has a pattern of openings on a spherical surface that define recesses that extend to a first radial depth and do not reach the cavity. A portion of those housing openings, being in three different regions of the housing, define conduits that extend to interconnect with the cavity. Different numbers or sizes of the opening on the three regions permit dispensing of treats at different rates, when the dispensing opening of the treat chamber is rotated/aligned therewith. A detent mechanism releasably inhibit treat chamber rotation when aligned with the openings in each region. A first color is used for the conduits, and a second color for the recesses, as a visual cue for the pet.

There is provided a therapeutic apparatus for an animal, the apparatus comprising a base and a plurality of food entrapment members that extend from the base, the food entrapment members and the base being configured so that, together, they define zones in which food paste can be trapped so that a tongue of a pet is inhibited from licking the food paste out of the zones, the base and the entrapment member being of a food grade material, in which the entrapment members extend from a first side of the base.

A system for alerting service animals to perform specified tasks generally includes an alert device which provides a first and a second haptic alert from an alert device worn by a service animal and a monitoring device worn by a handler. The monitoring device is programmed to monitor a physiologic parameter of the handler and has a first mode programmed to transmit a first actuation signal to the alert device when the physiologic parameter exceeds a first threshold such that the alert device provides the first haptic alert to the service animal and a second mode programmed to transmit a second actuation signal to the alert device when the physiologic parameter exceeds a second threshold such that the alert device provides the haptic alert to the service animal. The auditory alert is correlated to a first task and the second haptic alert is correlated to a second task.

A pet toy container used during play by a pet and used to store pet toys and accessories. The pet toy container has recessed openings on the outside that receive toys to entice a pet to play with the pet toy container. The pet toy container opens to allow the toys and accessories to be stored in the interior of the pet toy container. The pet toy container includes weights, a grippy bottom surface, and suction cups to hold the apparatus in place during play.

An agility course for use with an animal can include an obstacle, and a sensor configured to detect when the animal has traversed the obstacle. A method of training an animal can include positioning an obstacle unit and a dispenser unit so that a wireless signal can be transmitted from the obstacle unit to the dispenser unit, and transmitting the wireless signal in response to the animal traversing an obstacle of the obstacle unit.

A portable pet meal assembly includes a plurality of containers that is each attached together. A chew toy is positioned in a respective one of the containers and a fluid is contained in a respective one of the containers for the pet to drink. A granular food item is contained in a respective one of the containers for the pet to eat. A plurality of pet treats is contained in a respective one of the containers for the pet to eat. A plurality of covers is each removably attached to a respective one of the containers for closing the respective container. A box is provided and the plurality of containers is stored in the box to facilitate the plurality of containers to be purchased at a restaurant drive through window.

A reverse horse cart having a treadmill allowing an animal to walk thereon to generate power to run a vehicle. A horse is used as a source of power for a vehicle wherein the horse (or other animal) also rides on the vehicle. To collect energy from the horse in an efficient and ethical matter, the horse will walk on a treadmill causing the belt to rotate a shaft that connects to a flywheel which is communication with a generator. The generator then connects to a tray of capacitors to store the energy. After the energy is stored, the capacitors send the energy to electrical regulators, which pass the electricity to four motors that control each wheel. The motion of the wheels is controlled by a motion logic controller.
