Abstract
A canine diaper assembly includes a band that is wearable around a canine's body. The band is constructed of a fluid impermeable material to inhibit urine of the canine from passing through the band. A first tab is coupled to and extends away from the band and a second tab is coupled to and extends away from the band. The second tab is matable to the first tab for retaining the band in a closed loop around the canine's body. An absorbent pad is integrated into the band to absorb urine from the canine. A reactive strip is integrated into the band and the reactive strip is comprised of a material which chemically reacts to urine. The reactive strip changes colors when the reactive strip is exposed to urine to visually communicate that the canine has urinated into the absorbent pad.
Claims7
A canine diaper assembly for absorbing urine from a canine, said assembly comprising:
- a band being wearable around a canine's body, said band being comprised of a fluid impermeable material wherein said band is configured to inhibit urine of the canine from passing through said band;
- a first tab being coupled to and extending away from said band;
- a second tab being coupled to and extending away from said band, said second tab being matable to said first tab for retaining said band in a closed loop around the canine's body;
- an absorbent pad being integrated into said band thereby facilitating said absorbent pad to abut the canine's body when said band is wrapped around the canine's body, said absorbent pad being comprised of a fluid absorbent material wherein said absorbent pad is configured to absorb urine from the canine;
- a reactive strip being integrated into said band, said reactive strip being comprised of a material which chemically reacts to urine thereby facilitating said reactive strip to change colors when said reactive strip is exposed to urine wherein said reactive strip is configured to visually communicate that the canine has urinated into said absorbent pad;
- wherein said band has a basal wall and a perimeter wall extending upwardly from said basal wall, said perimeter wall having a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side, each of said front side and said back side curving toward a center of said basal wall, said front side having an opening extending through said front side;
- wherein said first tab is disposed on said back side of said perimeter wall of said band;
- and
- wherein said second tab comprises an elastomeric band being coupled to and extending away from said front side of said perimeter wall of said band.

A canine diaper assembly for absorbing urine from a canine, said assembly comprising:
- a band being wearable around a canine's body, said band being comprised of a fluid impermeable material wherein said band is configured to inhibit urine of the canine from passing through said band, said band having a basal wall and a perimeter wall extending upwardly from said basal wall, said perimeter wall having a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side, each of said front side and said back side curving toward a center of said basal wall, said front side having an opening extending through said front side;
- a first tab being coupled to and extending away from said band, said first tab being disposed on said back side of said perimeter wall of said band;
- a second tab being coupled to and extending away from said band, said second tab being matable to said first tab for retaining said band in a closed loop around the canine's body, said second tab comprising:
- an elastomeric band being coupled to and extending away from said front side of said perimeter wall of said band;
- an adhesive pad being coupled to and extending away from a distal edge of said elastomeric band, said adhesive pad having an upwardly facing surface which adhesively engages an exposed surface of said first tab;
- and
- a protective sheet being removably bonded to said upwardly facing surface for inhibiting said upwardly facing surface from adhering to an object, said protective sheet completely covering said upwardly facing surface;
- an absorbent pad being integrated into said band thereby facilitating said absorbent pad to abut the canine's body when said band is wrapped around the canine's body, said absorbent pad being comprised of a fluid absorbent material wherein said absorbent pad is configured to absorb urine from the canine, said absorbent pad having a lower surface being bonded to a top surface of said basal wall of said band, said absorbent pad having an outer edge being surrounded by said perimeter wall of said band wherein said perimeter wall is configured to inhibit urine from leaking outwardly from said absorbent pad;
- and
- a reactive strip being integrated into said band, said reactive strip being comprised of a material which chemically reacts to urine thereby facilitating said reactive strip to change colors when said reactive strip is exposed to urine wherein said reactive strip is configured to visually communicate that the canine has urinated into said absorbent pad, said reactive strip extending between said first lateral side and said second lateral side of said perimeter wall of said band, said reactive strip being centrally positioned between said front side and said back side of said perimeter wall, said reactive strip being visible through said basal wall of said band thereby facilitating said reactive strip to be visible when said band is worn around the canine's body.
