ABSTRACT:
A molded reinforced plastic dome-shaped shelter for animals, having a door, a base having a floor spaced from the ground, a feeding stall in an outside alcove in the shelter housing, a track surrounding the shelter adjacent its base, a glide freely movable around said track for attachment of a tether for the animal, and spike means for anchoring the housing and base together and to the ground. The housing and base may be of one piece of plastic and then separated, or may be made into sectors and assembled by bolts or other fastening means. The door may be locked so the shelter may be used as a shipping container and lifted by the track around the base as its handle. The feeding stall or alcove is preferably provided with two dishes, one for water and the other for dry food, and their supply may be maintained automatically by containers mounted above these dishes in the alcove. The track and its glide may take many forms with the glide either sliding or rolling inside a C-shaped cross-section track or around the outside of the track. The tether attached to the glide may be provided with a resilient means to reduce shocking jerks on the glide and track.
