Abstract

A flipping pet toy is provided having a first bore and a second bore parallelly disposed to the first bore. A series of ribs interstitial spaces there between are concentrically disposed about a central axis of the bores. A thin and laterally elongated body member forms a resilient, thin walled body circumscribing the bores such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action.

Claims (14)

1. A pet chew toy comprising;

a laterally elongated body member, said laterally elongated body member forming a resilient walled body circumscribing at least a first bore that travels across said laterally elongated body such that said wall forms a width that is thin along a lateral plane and is capable of generating a resilient, springing action; and

said wall forming a side having a length of a dimension substantially greater than said width such that said resilient, springing action is generated substantially across said lateral plane.

2. The toy of claim 1 , wherein said body member comprises second bore, said first and said second bores are both concentrically disposed to said wall, said side further comprises a plurality of ribs and a plurality of interstitial spaces.

3. The toy of claim 2 , wherein at least one consumable treat may be impinged in either or both of said first or said second bore.

4. The toy of claim 2 , wherein each one of said plurality of ribs is substantially parallel to a central axis of said body member.

5. The toy of claim 2 , wherein each one of said plurality of ribs is substantially helical to a central axis of said body member.

6. The toy of claim 1 , further comprising a second bore, said second bore is parallelly disposed to said first bore.

7. The pet toy of claim 6 , further comprising:

a first series of ribs and a first series of interstitial spaces there between substantially disposed in a direction parallel to a central axis of said first bore; and

a second series of ribs and a second series of interstitial spaces there between substantially disposed in a direction parallel to a central axis of said second bore.

8. The pet toy of claim 6 , further comprising:

a first series of ribs and a first series of interstitial spaces there between helically disposed about a central axis of said first bore; and
