Abstract: A pet leash which can be used in various applications such as for walking of a dog in a conventional manner, for walking a large pet such as a large dog by being supported on the user's shoulder, and for an anchoring of a pet within a vehicle. The pet: leash is adapted to be connected to a neck collar portion or a body strap of a pet and includes a central traction portion, a loop-shaped first holding portion formed on a proximal end of the traction portion, and a loop-shaped second holding portion formed on one of a distal end and a middle region of the traction portion.

Abstract: A pet anchor including anchor bands, one end of each of which is adapted to be anchored to a seat of vehicle, and an anchor plate connected to the other ends of the anchor bands and adapted to be engaged with a proximal end of a leash for a pet. The anchor plate is formed, at a first portion thereof, with at least one slot. Another end of each of the anchor bands is securable to the anchor plate at one of the slots. The anchor plate is also formed, at a second portion thereof, with an engaging recess having a substantially "C" shaped configuration and within which a looped end of the leash may be fitted. Easy detachment of the leash from the anchor band secured to the seat of vehicle can be achieved via the anchor plate.

Abstract: A lock structure for a flexible line in which one looped end and a contiguous intermediate section of the line are fitted in approximately V-shaped grooves formed in a pair of approximately trapezoidal lock halves. The lock halves are of synthetic resin and have sharp pointed projections formed within the grooves for securing the line therein. The lock members are aligned with one another by an arrangement of engaging projections formed on a first one of the lock halves which engage with a corresponding arrangement of receiving holes formed in the second one of the lock halves. The lock halves are securely joined to one another by welding so that the flexible line can be firmly maintained in the welded lock structure for a prolonged period of time without loosening.
