A detection tag and apparatus for the detection of the reproductive status of animals, or for assisting in the drafting of selected animals. The detection tag is capable of electronically transmitting a signal. Tags for detecting the reproductive status of an animal have a first surface that is affixable to the hide of an animal and a second and opposite surface which includes abradable material. Such detection tags are configured such that removal of some or all of the abradable material alters the ability of the detection tag to transmit a signal electronically or alters a characteristic of the electronically transmitted signal. A tag reader is used to read the signal from the tag. The detection tag can include an RF/EMF blocking circuit/loop and/or removable flood coat layer which is damaged/removed partially or completely during mounting of the animal allowing the tag to indicate a status change.

A pet grooming tool, for use with a furry pet such as a dog or cat having loose hair and non-loose hair, is adapted for removing the loose hair from the pet. The grooming tool comprises a sharp edged comb with short tines mounted in front of an atrium open near the comb, and is also connected to a suction hose attached to a vacuum cleaner or similar.

The comb is drawn through the pet's hair where it pulls loose undercoat and guard hairs, fleas, ticks, dander, and other items out of the animal's fur. When the tines are full, the comb is tipped on its trailing side and passed over a stripping pad or the animals hide. This pulls the hair mass out of the tines and deposits it at the entrance of the suction nozzle from whence it is whisked away by vacuum to a collection chamber.

The invention discloses an animal hide fiber loosening method based on the xylanase effect and relates to the field of production of leather and fur leather. The method is characterized in that xylanase is added as a hide fiber loosening additive during the steps such as water soaking, depilation, softening and pickling of leather making or during the steps such as water soaking, softening and pickling of fur leather making. By means of the method, the components such as proteoglycan and glycosaminoglycan, which have a cohesive effect on hide fiber, in the animal hide can be efficiently and specifically destroyed. Hide protein ingredients cannot be destructed. The method has wide applicability and is suitable for the manufacturing process of all-purpose leather or fur leather with various kinds of animal hides as raw materials. The effects of promoting loosening of hide fiber and improving the softness, hand feeling and physical and mechanical properties of finished leather products are achieved. Through the method in the leather making process, pollutants such as lime and sodium sulfide are reduced, and the depilation effect is improved.
