The present invention is an animal cooling system including a collar removably connected to a vest. The collar may be affixed around an animal's neck and the vest around the animal's torso. The collar includes a fabric layer having at least one pouch affixed to an inner side, at least one coolant sheet removably located within the pouch, and a fastener affixed to the fabric layer. The vest includes a fabric layer having at least one pouch affixed to an inner side, at least one coolant sheet removably located within the pouch, and a fastener affixed to the fabric layer. The coolant sheets include a freezable, non-toxic coolant and once melted, may be removed from their respective pouches and swapped for fresh, frozen coolant sheets to allow for continuous cooling. The system may also be utilized as a separate collar or a separate vest having the same construction and function.

An animal lifting device and method is provided. In particular, a hip member and a chest member are provided that have handles thereon. The chest member and the hip member may be selectively interconnected to each other with an interconnection member. The chest member may include an upper portion, shoulder pads, a chest pad, a center cross member, and an adjustable strap.

A no choke, control harness may include a main harness strap comprising a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a midpoint. The main harness strap may define a lateral orientation and may be configured for draping across the withers of a quadruped. The harness may also include a first and second leg loops extending respective ends of the main harness strap in respective first and second lateral direction. The leg loops may be configured for positioning around respective forelegs of the quadruped. Each leg loop may be formed from a strap having a first end and a second end opposite the first end sharing a top surface and a bottom surface wherein the top surface of the first end is connected to the bottom surface of the second end. The harness may also include a leash attachment.

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.

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 dog training place holder system and method providing a place-holder unit of a colored single-ply waterproof fabric with a low-profile binding, grommets, and a leash opening, and a carabiner. The place-holder unit is used both as a covering for the dog, when placed on the dog with the carabiner connecting the grommets at the chest, and as a place holder which indicates to the dog an appropriate place to sit or lie down, especially in unfamiliar environments or circumstances. A carry pouch can also be provided for storing and carrying the place-holder unit. A cinch strap can also be provided for more secure placement of the place-holder unit as a covering for the dog. The colored single-ply waterproof fabric is preferably colored either blue or yellow, being colors that dogs can see and distinguish, to provide visual information to help the dog identify the place-holder unit. In use, especially during the process of training the dog or acclimating the dog to a new environment, the place-holder unit is used as a covering for the dog, during which time the place-holder unit might acquire some scent of the dog and will become familiar to the dog as an item associated with the dog and the dog's environment. Use as a covering might also provide protection for the dog or provide for identification of the dog, such as identification as a service dog, optionally with an attachable banner. At other times, such as when the dog is encountering a new environment or new circumstances, the place-holder unit can be placed at a location as an indicator to the dog of the appropriate location to sit or lie down, and as an item associated with and familiar to the dog.

An animal lifting device and method is provided. In particular, a hip member and a chest member are provided that have handles thereon. The chest member and the hip member may be selectively interconnected to each other with an interconnection member. The chest member may include an upper portion, shoulder pads, a chest pad, a center cross member, and an adjustable strap. The hip member may include an upper portion, an adjustable sling, and adjustable straps.

A pet monitoring device (101) for monitoring a sub-dermal RFID microchip (103), the pet monitoring device comprising: a wearable item (1) bearing 1 to 5 turns of electrical conductor (7) wound circumferentially to form a wearable item resonator; and an RFID reader (9) attachable and detachable to said wearable item, wherein said RFID reader comprises: a driving circuit (1100) comprising a primary inductance (Lp) inductively coupled to said wearable item when said RFID reader is attached to said wearable item; a secondary inductance (Ls) and resonance capacitor (Cs) conductively coupled to said wearable item when said RFID reader is attached to said wearable item, wherein the secondary inductance and resonance capacitor form the wearable item resonator with said electrical conductor, wherein the wearable item resonator comprises a circuit (1004) to automatically adjust said resonance capacitor to compensate for a size of said wearable item when fitted to said pet; wherein the driving circuit is operable to drive the wearable item resonator.

A restraint system for simultaneously maintaining a plurality of animate objects in an untangled position while the user is hands free is provided. The present invention embodies a 360-degree waist harness that operatively associates with a plurality of retractable bungee assemblies, each bungee assembly adapted to removably attach to a comprehensive vest or harness or a child or a pet, respectively. The bungee assemblies are selectively releasable from the 360-degree belt or the comprehensive vest or harness.

The present invention provides an animal harness comprising a harness body and a scale. The scale is secured to the harness body by a securement means. The harness can be utilized by a user to provide a specific amount of assistance to an animal using the harness because the scale will provide the user with the exact amount the animal weighs and how much assistance the user is providing the animal.
