Abstract: A pet collar imprinting device includes a housing having a printing assembly and a heating assembly thereon. A pet product motion platform assembly carries the pet product, and a hold down assembly engages the pet product on the platform assembly. A drive mechanism moves the platform assembly to the printing assembly and to the heating assembly. A heating assembly drive mechanism moves the heating assembly toward and away from the pet product.

Abstract: A pet harness (10) is made up of a plurality of straps (12, 13, 14) and a chest pad (11). The back strap (14) is formed of two sections (22, 23) which are attached by a buckle (25). A leash connector (30), which includes two brackets (31), is carried by the back strap (14). Each bracket (31) has a portion (33) which has an aperture (37) therein. When the brackets (31) are pivoted such that the portions (33) mate with each other, a snap connector of a leash may be attached through the aligned apertures (37). When access to the buckle (25) is desired, the brackets (31) may be pivoted away from each other when not connected to the leash.

Abstract: A connector (10) includes a housing (34) and an arm (43) pivotally connected to the housing (34). A hook (48) is formed on one end of the arm (43) and a spring (49) is positioned between the arm (43) and the housing (34). The connector (10) can be used to attach two items of many configurations together, but it is particularly suited to attach strap ends of an item such as a halter (11) having a strap (12) and a strap (13) interconnected by a plurality of tab straps (20, 21, 22). The strap (12) is interrupted to form a portion (32) carrying the connector (10) and another portion (31) carrying an o-ring (29) which can be engaged between the hook (48) and the housing (34).

Abstract: A pet collar (10) includes a first web portion (18) attached to a second web portion (19) by a locking device (16). The locking device (16) includes opposed plates (22, 23) each of which have a plurality of apertures (27, 28, 29) therein which receive the web portions (18, 19). A lock barb (26) is positioned at each end of each plate (22, 23) and the lock barbs (26) of opposed plates (22, 23) are opposed to each other so that when tension is placed upon a web portion (18, 19), the opposed lock barbs (26) will engage the web portion (18, 19) positioned therebetween.
