ABSTRACT:
A TANGLE-PROOF COLLAR ASSEMBLY for restraining pets and various animals. Each embodiment utilizes a channel mounted on an annular band. The channel forms an arcuate path about the periphery of the band wherein a swivel truck assembly having 360° biaxial rotation may travel within the arcuate path of the channel. An attachment for the leash is provided on the swivel truck. Each embodiment employs a locking mechanism for securing the collar in a suitable manner to maintain the arcuate path. Additional embodiments are described that provide for a rigid collar, which may be adjusted by the addition or removal of sizing elements or sections and an alternate locking assembly. An embodiment of a harness based upon the present invention is also described.
