ANIMAL COLLAR AND LEASH
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Technical Field This invention relates to an animal collar and leash which can be utilized as a collar and which has a leash portion which can be utilized as a leash and which is recoilable.
2. Background The problen~ in the art to which ~his invention apertains is the need for a combined animal collar and leash which can be utilized as a collar and which has a leash portion that can be uncoiled from the collar for use as a leash and which can be recoiled upon the collar when the leash por_ tion is no longer needed to function as a leash.
Accordingly, the object of the invention is to provide a combined ani_ mal collar and leash which can be utili7ed as a collar and whish has a leash portion that can be uncoiled from the collar for use as a leash and which can be recoiled upon the collar when the leash portion is no longer needed.
SUMMAR~ OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with the invention, there is provided a longitudinal strip of woven single_ strip webbing made of nylon, polypropylene or other suitable plastic single_ strip webbing material. The longitudinal strip has Velcro fastening means. One end of the webbing is inserted through a tethering D_ ring carried at the other end to thereby define a collar. The remaining longitudinal webbing strip defines a leash portion _2_ `- ~2: L0~

coilable upon the collar for storage and uncoilable from the collar by dis_ connecting the Velcro fastening means.
In the other embodiment of the invention, the collar i9 formed into double thickness strip webbing and is provided on one end with a buckle through which the other free end of the collar extends. One end of ~
longitudinal strip of single_strip webbing, defining the leash, is joined to the collar. This leash webbing strip is releasably connected upon and to the collar for storage purposes via the Velcro fastening means and is similarly releasable from the collar for its use as a leash.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
This object and other objects of the invention should be discerned and appreciated from the detailed description taken in conjunction with the drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to similar parts through_ out the several views, in which:
Fig. 1 is a view showing one end of single_strip webbing inserted through a tethering D_ ring to define the collar with the remaining leash portion of the webbing uncoiled from the collar for use as a leash;
Fig. 2 is a view showing the leash portion in Fig. 1 coiled upon the collar for storage and connected thereto via Velcro fastening means; and Fig. 3 is a view showing another embodiment of the invention wbich employs a buckle to define the collar upon assembly and which shows a separate webbing strip defining the leash joined at one end to the collar with the remaining webbing strip disconnected from the collar, and with Velcro fastening means to releasably secure the leash upon the collar for _3_ .. .. ..

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
To facilitate the understanding of the invention, a nomenclature list is herewith provided:
generally refers to the invention
3 longitudinal strip webbing 5 one end of strip webbing 3 7 eye formed on end 5 to mount D_ ring 9 9 large D_ring functioning as tethering ring 11 other end of strip webbing 3 13 handle on end 11 mounting D_ring 15 15 small D_ring 17 collar 19 leash or leash portion 21 strip of Velcro hook portion on one side of collar 17 23 strip of Velcro loop portion on one side of leash 19 25 generally refers to other invention embodiment 2 7 collar 29 eye on one end of collar 27 mounting D_ring 31 31 tethering D_ ring 33 eye mounting belt buckle 37 35 eye mounting guide ring 39 3 7 belt buckle 39 guide ring _4_ ~o~

41 other collar end 43 belt buckle prong 45 hole 47 leash of single_ strip webbing 49 end of leash 47 attached to collar 27 51 end of leash 47 formed into handle 53 53 handle 55 strip of Velcro hook portion on one side of collar 27 57 strip of Yelcro loop portion on one side of leash 47 In Fig. l of the drawings, reference numeral 1 generally refers to the animal collar and leash.
Animal collar and leash l comprises a longitudinal strip 3 of woven single- strip webbing made of nylon, polypropylene, or other suitable plastic single- strip webbing material. One end 5 of the strip webbing 3 is folded back upon itself and sewn together, or is otherwise suitably secured, to form an eye 7 to carry and mount a large D_ring 9 function-ing as a tethering ring.
The other end ll of the strip webbing 3 i~ folded back upon itself and sewn together, or is otherwise ~uitably 3ecured, to form a handle 13 to carry and mount a small D_ring 15. Such qmall D_ring 15 on the handle 13 is inserted through the large D_ring 9 with the strip webbing 3 threaded ~ufficiently through the large D_ring 9 to define the collar 17 for operable disposition around the animal's neck with the remaining part of the strip webbing defining the leash or leash portion 19. By simply grasping the 12~0284 handle 13 on the end of leash 19 and appropriately manipulating same,the collar 17 encircling the animal's neck will close tightly upon such animal's neck and function as a choke collar to provide in~tant control over the animal.
When leash control over the animal i3 not necessary and the animal is to be allowed to run free and unrestrained, then the leash 19 can be coiled upon the collar 17 and be releasably connected therewith for stor-age purposes thereon. The means for releasably connecting the leash 19 with the collar 17 is provided by a material manufactured by the American Robbins Company and marketed under the trademark VELCRO. This ma-terial is provided in two portion~7 a hook portion and a loop portion both of which can be purchased with an adhesive backing and/or can be attach_ ed to the surface of the collar 17 and leash 19 by being adhering thereto and by being sewn thereto. A strip of the ~elcro hook portion 21 is adhesively attached to the side of the collar 17 facing outwardly from the neck of the animal and i9 sewn thereto, and a strip of the Velcro loop portion 23 is adhesively attached to the side of the leash 19 facing in_ wardly toward the neck of the animal and i3 sewn thereto. The hook por_ tion 21 includes a plurality of hooks and the loop portion 23 includes a plurality of loops. The hooks of the hook portion 21 have characteristics for engaging the loops of the loop portion 23.
When one is walking his animal unleashed with the leash 19 coiled upon and releasably connected with the collar 17 and he wants to exercise instant control over his animal, the small D_ring 15 is simply oppositely _6_ 12102~3~

and removably disposed through the large D_ring 9 and then the handle 13 is appropriately grasped to uncoil and release the leash 19 from the collar 17 sufficiently such that the collar 17 encircling the animal's neck will close tightly upon the animal's neck to function as a choke collar to provide thereby instant control over the animal.
In Fig. 3 of the drawings, reference numeral 25 generally refers to the other embodiment of the animal collar and leash invention which com-prises a longitudinal strip of woven single- strip webbing folded back upon itself to halve its length and sewn together, or otherwise suitably secured, to define the collar 27 and to form an eye 29 on one end to carry and mount a large D ring 31 functioning as a tethering ring. Also imbedded in eyes 33 and 35 formed in the collar 27 are a belt buckle 37 and a guide ring 39 mounted thereby. The other end 41 of the collar 27 is inserted through the tethering D_ring 31, through the buckle 37 with its prong 43 engaged with an appropriate one of the holes 45 formed through the strip material to provide the desired collar adjustment around the animal's neck, and the end 41 of the collar 27 is suitably emplaced beneath the guide ring 39.
A longitudinal strip of woven single- strip webbing 47 deines the leash whose one end 49 i8 sewn to the collar 27 and whose other end 51 is folded back upon itself and sewn together appropriately to form a handle 53.
A strip of Velcro hook portion 55 is suitab`ly attached, such as by being sewn thereto, to the side of the collar 27 facin~ outwardly from the neck of the animal, and Ytrips of Velcro loop portions 57 are suitably attached, _ 7_ .

~z~o~

such as by being sewn thereto, to the side of the leash 47 facing inwardly toward the neck of the animal.
The leash 47 can be coiled upon the collar 27 and releasably connected therewith for storage purposes thereon by simply engaging the Velcro hook portion 55 with the Velcro loop portions 57. When one wants to uti-lize the leash 47 for control of the animal, he simply grasps the handle 53 appropriately and exerts sufficient pull to uncoil and release the leash 47 from the collar 27.
Having thusly described my invention, I claim:
