ABSTRACT:
The Combination Collar is worn around the neck of a dog [or other animal] that one desires to control with the use of a leash attached to the collar. The collar being of a design such that the surface geometry of the inner surface of the collar, [surface of the collar facing the neck of the animal] having a plurality of posts or protruding elements that are substantially surrounded by a compressible, resilient material that, temporarily changes from a surface that is generally smooth, to a surface having protruding pressure points. This temporary change in surface geometry occurs in direct response to tension between the leash and the collar, as when the animal attempts to pull away from the attached leash. The inner surface of the collar returns to its original [generally smooth] surface geometry when the tension is absent.
