Described herein are animal collars and methods of using animal collars. Also described herein are buckles for animal collars.

The present invention relates to a collar (1) for pets, the collar (1) comprising a tightening structure consisting of a buckle (2) having a first projecting structure (21) formed longitudinally on the top (23a) and a second projecting structure 22a formed transversely to the center of the bottom (23b) of the buckle (2), the first and second projecting structures (21, 22a) facing one another without touching.

Disclosed is a pet insect repeller, tied to the neck of a pet by a strap, comprising a housing, and a battery, a circuit board and a heating portion mounted inside the housing. The battery and a heating plate are respectively connected to the circuit board. One side of the housing is provided with a plurality of through volatilization holes. The heating portion is provided with a drug carrying member that is loaded with a biological active component. The battery is used to provide an operating current for the heating portion. After the battery is turned on, the heating portion generates heat to heat the drug carrying member. After the temperature of the drug carrying member rises, the biological active component is volatilized and diffused to the body surface of a pet through the volatilization holes. By adopting the above technical solution, there will no harm to the pet.

A method of constructing a pet nail clipper is provided. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a disposable receptacle filled with a styptic substance. After receiving the receptacle, a sidewall of the disposable receptacle is coupled to an inside edge of an opening in a bracket extending from the pet nail clipper. In preferred embodiments, the receptacle is comprised of a cup and a lid and the lid is made with a rubber or silicone and has an entrance into an interior of the receptacle.

A pet washing collar includes a flexible permeable hose for placement around the neck of a pet. A hose coupling delivers water into the interior of the hose which distributes water around part of the neck of the pet. In some embodiments, the flexible permeable hose includes inner and outer tubes. A length adjuster allows lengthening and shortening of the collar to accommodate pets of different size. A buckle connects ends of the collar together to allow it to be placed and removed from a pet. The effective water distributing length of the hose is adjustable by selectively pinching off part of the hose.

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.

A dog bark control device which includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a stimulation applying means, and a control unit. The control unit determines whether the animal barks, and when the animal is determined to bark, operates the stimulation applying means to apply stimulation to the animal. The control unit determines that the animal barks when the first sensing signal of the first sensor is a signal indicating that the animal barks, and at the same time, the animal is determined to make a particular motion accompanied by barking from the second sensing signal of the second sensor.

A scent dispenser/absorber includes a pair of cylindrical housing members arranged coaxially about a common longitudinal axis such that the inner housing member is rotatably received in an interior chamber of the outer housing member. Each housing member has a peripheral sidewall provided with a set of radially extending apertures. A scent cartridge is removably disposed within an interior chamber of the inner housing member to absorb undesirable odors, or to emit desirable scents. By manually controlling the relative rotational positions of the housing members, a user can align or misalign the two sets of apertures, thereby enabling or disabling the transfer of scents or odors between the scent cartridge and the surrounding environment.

The present invention relates to a collar (1) for pets, the collar (1) comprising a tightening structure consisting of a buckle (2) having a first projecting structure (21) formed longitudinally on the top (23a) and a second projecting structure 22a formed transversely to the center of the bottom (23b) of the buckle (2), the first and second projecting structures (21, 22a) facing one another without touching.

A pet nail clipper is provided. The pet nail clipper includes an upper arm and a lower arm. The upper arm includes a handle portion and a cutting portion having a blade. The lower arm also includes a handle portion and a cutting portion having a blade. A pivot bolt pivotally connects the upper arm and the lower arm together in between the handle portions and the cutting portions. A spring is attached to the upper arm and the lower arm. The spring biases the handle portions away from one another and biases the cutting portions away from one another. A deburring plate and a styptic receptacle are secured to the handle portions of the arms.
