Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of dog toys, in particular training and fetching toys, which are designed so that they can be hygienically stored and conveniently stored and transported after use. Objectives of the invention
[0002] When playing and fetching with dogs, balls and similar toys often become heavily soiled with saliva, dirt and moisture.
[0003] Subsequent transport in bags or on clothing regularly results in contamination.
[0004] In addition, dog owners usually have to carry other accessories such as poop bags or treats separately.
[0005] The object of the invention is therefore to provide a multifunctional dog toy that not only serves as a training and fetching toy, but also enables hygienic storage and convenient transport of toys and accessories in a compact unit. Solution to the task
[0006] The task is solved by a dog toy with the following essential features: 1. A ball (1) firmly connected to a flexible casing (2), wherein the casing partially or completely encloses the ball to retain saliva and dirt. 2. A connecting element (3) attached inside the casing, which is permanently connected to the ball. 3. The connecting element (3) is led out of the casing and is provided with a fastening means (4) which serves both as a pulling aid for transferring the ball into the casing and as a means of transport (e.g. carabiner hook for attaching to belt, bag or dog leash). 4. In a preferred embodiment, the cover (2) comprises at least one outer pocket (5) with a closure means (6) (e.g. zipper, Velcro or snap fastener) for holding accessories such as treats or poop bags. 5. The cover (2) consists of a water-repellent, washable material, preferably a textile material, which can be selected, if necessary, so that the device is buoyant. 6. The ball (1), casing (2), connecting element (3) and, if applicable, bag (5) are designed as an inseparable unit. The ball (1) can be replaced if necessary. Advantages of the invention
[0007] Training and fetching toy as well as a hygienic transport solution in one product. Hands, bags, and trousers stay clean during transport. Hands-free transport is possible by attaching it to, for example, a belt, bag, or leash. Optional accessories such as poop bags or treats can be carried along. Depending on the material chosen, it can also be made to float (making it suitable for fetch games in and around water).
