ABSTRACT:
An exercise and amusement toy for a dog or other pet including a supported umbrella-shaped top or dome with toys suspended by resilient lines, such as ropes or cables from the rim of the dome. The dome is supported and held upright by an intermediate elongated standard member, which in turn is supported by a portable base plate. The intermediate member is formed of an upper spring member that is coupled to a lower stationary tubular member. The spring member allows for rotation and slight bending motion of the dome, when the pet plays with the suspended toys. The preferred embodiment is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. In another embodiment, the lower stationary tubular member tapers to a point resembling a typical stake. A pet owner can then drive the tubular member into the ground, preferably outdoors, thus securing the pet toy in an upright position without use of the base plate.
