Abstract: A human or artificial intelligence (AI) operated animal health and safety system and method are described for use with animals, such as equines, other ungulates, canines and felines. Sensors/monitors/signs and sources (“DMSS”) obtain data on vital life-sustaining or life-threatening processes and signs directly from the animal. The vital life-sustaining and/or life-threatening processes and/or signs in the form of data, together with archived/real-time location/monitoring/external conditions, e.g., weather forecasts/alerts are processed in a system which can be operated partially, or almost exclusively by AI. The AI system and method re-purposes/re-re-purposes the data originally obtained for another use/diagnosis or purpose. A method of utilizing the AI system is also described.

Abstract: A pet behavior interaction device includes: a protective housing provided with a battery and a processing unit; two sides of the protective housing are symmetrically and fixedly provided with a fixed side frame; when an installation seat is installed in a specified position, one end of a detection slider will detach from a detection insertion slot on one side of a fixed slider, thereby completing a fixation of a fixed strap and the installation seat being fixed only when it is installed in the specific position, it is convenient for an operator to determine a fixed operation of the behavior interaction device and operates whether the installation of the behavior interaction device is carried out according to regulations.

The process of the present invention delivers an orally ingested substance, e.g., a food, supplement, etc., that contains an anti-aging formulation comprising a hormone precursor (prohormone) that is absorbed by the digestive system and secreted into the bloodstream with a second substance to facilitate its ingestion, absorption and delivery to the body's tissues.

Abstract: A leash for a pet and method of use for donning and removing from a distance to eliminate the need for the human user to bend over or otherwise require their hands to touch or be in close proximity to the animal. The human user places the expanded collar loop of the leash over the head of the animal and subsequently secures the collar loop around the neck of the animal by pulling on the handle of the leash. A connection prevents the collar loop from unintentionally expanding when the leash is in use. The leash is removed by pulling a removal cord to expand the collar loop to allow the head of the animal to slide out from the collar loop.

Abstract: A remote controller for preventing accidental triggering includes a first outer housing, a first circuit board provided on the first outer housing, stopping blocks arranged on the first outer housing, and a movable member movably arranged on the first outer housing. The first circuit board is equipped with a switch. The movable member is configured to switch between a locked position and a released position when moving relative to the first outer housing. The movable member is blocked by the stopping block when in the locked position. When in the released position, the movable member is disengaged from the limiting of the stopping block, and can move in a direction close to the switch under external force to trigger the switch. When the remote controller is not needed, the movable member can be adjusted to the locked position, preventing the switch from being triggered accidentally during the carrying process.
