Abstract
An animal control device for prohibiting animal access to or egress from a desired area. The transmitter comprises a flexible transmitter strip and strip extensions that are designed to be physically unobtrusive.

Claims16
An animal control device for controlling area access or egress of animals, the device comprising:
- transmission means comprising a substantially parallelepiped flexible transmitter strip further accessibly comprising on/off control disposed within one end of the strip;
- electrically interconnected receiving and emission means disposed on a removable animal collar, the receiving means receiving airwave signals from the transmitter strip, thereby signaling a warning emission;
- powering means for the transmission means and for the receiving and emission means.
An animal control device for controlling area access or egress of animals, the device comprising:
- a substantially parallelepiped flexible transmitter strip further comprising on/off control and frequency control accessibly disposed upwardly within one end of the strip and a male or female plug on an opposite end, the plug for receiving like-shaped strip extensions;
- the transmitter strip and strip extensions powered by standard AC outlet voltage and a replaceable battery within the transmitter strip;
- internal strip means for automatically selecting between the battery power or the AC outlet voltage power;
- a pluggable end cap terminating the last strip end;
- a collar unit comprising a receiver/emitter disposed fixedly and centrally along a small portion of a removable, adjustable animal collar strap, the receiver/emitter receiving airwave signals from the transmitter strip, thereby signaling an emission warning an animal, the receiver/emitter powered by a replaceable battery.
