ABSTRACT:
The control device of the present invention includes a body panel having a top surface with a pouch area located centrally thereof for releasably retaining a disposable absorbent pad. The body panel is formed to include a pair of waist flange areas at the distal end thereof and toward its proximal end tapers a narrowed portion that lies just ahead of a pair of proximal end flanges. A pair of adjustable rib cage straps are secured to the proximal end flanges, and a pair of adjustable waist straps are secured to each of the waist flanges. Each strap pair includes cooperating releasable securing means on the ends thereof. In operation, the body panel is located beneath the animal. Specifically, the top surface thereof is placed against the animal and is held there by securing of the rib cage straps around the chest of the animal just ahead of the distal end of its rib cage and by securing of the waist straps around the waist area of the animal just ahead of its hind quarters. The panel is sized in proper proportion to the animal, and the absorbant pad is positioned thereon immediately beneath the genital area of the animal, so that any urine excreted by the animal is absorbed by the pad.
