Electronic nose-clip with solar cell

Abstract

An animal training apparatus including a nose-supported housing, receiver, control circuit, and electrodes. The receiver cooperates with the carrrier signal from a transmitter, activating a control circuit. The control circuit engages an indicator level module or control level module to activate animal control output in the form of electrical stimulus within and across the nasal septum. When an animal enters an area where the received carrier signal creates a d.c. output less than a threshold reference level, the control circuit is activated. An outfitted animal is trained to develop a behavioral condition in response to an indicator level output followed by a stronger control level output. A particular embodiment is the combination with a solar cell attached to the housing to maintain a charged state in a battery that powers the receiver and control circuit.
