PET PONCHO WITH ENHANCED COMFORT AND SAFETY

摘要

A poncho for use with a pet to protect the pet from environmental elements and enhance safety by minimizing trip and choking hazards is provided. The poncho also prevents soiling, increases comfort, conserves body heat, and allows free movement of the pet's legs in all daily activities while reducing a likelihood of skin chafing experienced by the pet. The poncho includes a generally rectangular fabric layer having a front edge with a first portion and a second portion coupled together to create an opening sufficiently large to permit the pet's head to pass through, the rectangular fabric layer having an inner surface that rests on a body portion of the pet, and an elastic strap coupled to the inner surface of the rectangular fabric layer proximate the opening. The elastic strap conforms to contours of a chest region of the pet, thereby securing the poncho to the pet.
