Abstract:
An exercising device for animals, such as dogs, horses, and the like, comprises a harness for attachment to the chest region of the animal. First and second leg bands are attached to the rear legs of the aninal at its hocks, and an elastic cord interconnects these first and second leg bands with the harness through a pulley attached to the harness in the chest region of the animal. The length and tension of the elastic cord are selected to cause additional dynamic tension to be applied between the rear legs and the chest of the animal when the animal is walking and running, while at the same time permitting normal movement of the animal. Thus, increased exercise and muscle build-up of the animal occurs under all conditions of exercise of such animal.
