Abstract

A stretchable animal foot covering comprising an elongated body with a foot-receiving chamber on opposite ends of the elongated body that is formed from stretchable material that is at least partially closed at the ends to form the foot-receiving chambers.

Claims (21)

1. A stretchable animal foot covering comprising:

a first elongated body with foot-receiving chambers on opposite ends of the first elongated body;

a second elongated body with foot-receiving chambers on opposite ends of the second elongated body; and

an adjusting connector for associating the elongated bodies when worn by an animal,

wherein each elongated body is formed from a first stretchable material that terminates in at least partially closed ends formed from a second material that form the foot-receiving chambers, the first and second elongated bodies each being open along at least a portion of the elongated body so that the elongated body portion can lay across an animal's back when the foot covering is worn by an animal,

wherein the first and second elongated bodies are drawn towards each other by the adjusting connector such that a portion of the first elongated body and a portion of the second elongated body are adjacent each other, and

wherein the adjusting connector is configured to adjust a size of the stretchable animal foot covering when the foot covering is worn by an animal,

wherein the adjusting connector further comprises at least one opening, and an entire width of each of the first elongated body and the second elongated body are received through the at least one opening.

2. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , further comprising a fastening connector for attaching the elongated bodies.

3. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the adjusting connector further comprises a biased closure for capturing the portion of the elongated body within the at least one opening.

4. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the adjusting connector further comprises a plurality of openings for receiving at least a portion of each elongated body within a separate opening.

5. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 4 , wherein the adjusting connector further comprises a biased closure for capturing each portion of the elongated body within each opening.

6. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , further comprising gripping on the outside of each foot-receiving chamber.

7. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 6 , wherein the gripping further comprises material that differs from the material of the foot-receiving chamber.

8. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 7 , wherein the gripping further comprises a shaped tread.

9. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , each foot-receiving chamber further comprising a depth and a width that respectively correlates to a depth and a size of an animal's foot received within the foot-receiving chamber.

10. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the first and second materials are different.

11. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 10 , wherein the second material is waterproof.

12. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the respective portions of the first and second elongated bodies are drawn through at least one bore in the connector.

13. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the connector adjusts the size of the stretchable animal foot covering by gripping each of the first elongated body and the second elongated body at one of a plurality of locations.

14. The stretchable animal foot covering of claim 1 , wherein the size of the stretchable animal foot covering is adjusted by varying a length between the connector and an end of the first or second elongated body.
