Claims8
In combination with an animal garment and an animal diaper, a support coupler for helping to substantially maintain the animal diaper in an intended protective position, comprising:
- a closable utility envelope removably secured to a distal end area of the animal garment in close proximity to the animal diaper being worn by the animal in combination with the animal garment, said closable utility envelope defines at least one storage compartment;
- wherein the closable utility envelope is provided with an inner closure r ember moveable between a closed non diaper engaging position and an open diaper engaging position, wherein said inner closure member seals the at least one storage compartment in the closed non diaper engaging position;
- said closable utility envelope further having an outer closure member moveable between a sealed closed non deployment position overlaying said inner closure member and an open unsealed deployment position away from said inner closure member that facilitates the coupling of said inner closure member to the animal garment;
- wherein said inner closure member has disposed thereon either a set of hooks or a set of loops for sufficiently gripping an outer surface of the animal diaper so that the diaper is secured and held in its intended protective position;
- and
- wherein said animal garment and said diaper are separate and distinctly different articles of clothing worn by an animal, one for substantially covering a fore section of the animal and one for substantially covering a hind section of the animal.
In combination with a primary animal protective garment and a secondary animal protective garment, a support coupler for helping to substantially maintain the secondary animal protective garment in an intended protective position, comprising:
- a closable utility envelope for defining at least one storage compartment and secured to a distal end area of the primary animal protective garment in close proximity to the secondary animal protective garment being worn by an animal in combination with the primary animal protective garment;
- wherein the closable utility envelope is provided with a closure member moveable between a closed non secondary animal protective garment engaging position and an open secondary animal protective garment engaging position, wherein said closure member seals the at least one storage compartment in the closed non secondary animal protective garment engaging position;
- wherein the closure member has disposed thereon either a set of hooks or a set of loops for sufficiently gripping an outer surface area of the secondary animal protective garment so that the secondary animal protective garment is secured and held in its intended protective position;
- and
- wherein the primary animal protective garment and the secondary animal protective garment are separate and distinctly different articles of clothing worn by an animal, one for substantially covering a fore section of the animal and one for substantially covering a hind section of the animal.
