20150114309 | Cooling Pet Chew Toy With Edible Inserts - The principles of the present inventive concepts relate to pet toys in general and, in particular, to a chewable pet toy such as those commonly used by dogs. The chew toy may be constructed and adapted to allow the toy to be cooled or frozen to provide a cooling effect to the animal during the chewing process. The toy may be further constructed and adapted to incorporate at least one recessed or open area that is configured to receive and retain an edible food product therein which may be dislodged and consumed by the animal during the chewing process. The chew toy may comprise a main body, which may consist of two half-sections defining a sealed interior volume that encases an inner core. A non-toxic fluid may also be contained within the interior volume to allow the toy to be frozen. An external surface of the main body may comprise a plurality of small protrusions to provide a cleaning or massaging effect to the animal's teeth and gums. A receptacle may be formed through the outer surface of the main body to receive and hold an edible food product, or dog treat, in the open area and allow the treat to be consumed by the animal. The main body may comprise a durable, pliant, puncture resistant material, such as a thermoplastic rubber, to allow the chew toy to be used for repeated and extended periods of times. | 04-30-2015 |
20140283757 | PET LASER TOY - The present inventive concepts relate to pet toys, in general, and specifically to pet toys constructed and adapted to provide a light source which directs a point of light on a distal surface to provide entertainment to an animal. A pet toy can include a housing suitable for attachment to mounting surface, such as ceiling or wall. The housing can further contain a laser light, a power supply, one or more motors and control circuitry. The motor(s) and control circuitry can be configured to move the light source to cause the point of light to move around on the distal surface. The control circuitry may be remotely operable via a remote control unit. The pet toy may selectively allow for either a constant or an intermittent display of the laser light, and may include a timing circuit to permit automatic deactivation of the light. | 09-25-2014 |
20140261230 | PET COLLAR TOY - A pet toy is attached to a pet collar and emits a point of light on a distal surface in front of the animal to provide entertainment to the animal. The pet toy preferably comprises a small housing suitable for attachment to an existing collar, wherein the housing contains a light source, a power source and an electronic control circuit. The toy preferably allows for either a constant or an intermittent display of the light based on user selection, and further preferably includes a timing circuit to allow for automatic deactivation of the light source after a predetermined period of operation. The light source may, for instance, be a laser or a light emitting diode. | 09-18-2014 |
