ABSTRACT:
A garbage can mat which encloses a garbage can or cans and acts as a barrier for dogs to prevent them from knocking over the garbage can or cans. The mat includes modules which are snap-fastened together at their adjoining end portions to form an enclosure. Each module has a male end portion, a middle portion, and a female end portion. The male end portion has a L-shaped recess and at least two spaced pins projecting downwardly from a ledge. The middle portion has spaced rounded spikes projecting upward. The female end portion has a L-shaped recess and at least two spaced holes in a ledge. The pins of the male end portion are designed to be snap-fitted into corresponding holes in the ledge of a female end portion of an adjoining module to provide a positive connection and yet to disconnected conveniently when desired. A curved section module and a straight section module are used. The curved section module has a 90.degree. arc. For a round configuration four curved section modules are snap-fastened together. For an oval configuration, the round configuration is expanded at its middle by the addition of two straight section modules in spaced parallel relationship to each other, between two joined curved section modules.
