Abstract
An adjustable dog collar having two attachment points permits the collar diameter to be regulated from a distance. The collar is constructed of a single piece of belting which is looped over an upper center bar of a three-bar cinch. The belting then passes under one of the cinch side bars, encircles the dog's neck, and terminates at the other side bar. The attachment points are located at a control ring located on the end of the belting loop and at another fixed location along the collar. Force is applied to these attachment points by connected leashes which either loosen, tighten, or hold constant the dimension of the collar depending upon the relative amount of force applied to each leash.
Claims7
A dog collar including a series of interconnecting elements including separate attachment means for two restraint leashes, comprising:
- a primary belt having an elongate loop at one end, said belt passing over an upper center bar of a three-bar triangular cinch and under adjacent openings thereof;
- a second end of said belt affixed to a side bar of said cinch;
- a collar connector immovably affixed to said belt adjacent said cinch side bar;
- and
- a size-control ring at said one end of said belt through which said loop passes whereby varying the relative leash forces between said two leashes at said connector and said ring changes the circumferential length of the collar.
