Abstract

See full text

An animal training apparatus including an collar-supported electronic device having stimulus electrodes extending therefrom and a partially elastic collar for holding the electronic device so as to press conductive tips of the stimulus electrodes against a neck of the animal. The partially elastic collar includes a non-elastic strap section having a free first end and a second end, an elastic strap section having a first end attached to the second end of the non-elastic strap section and a second end attached to a buckle. The elastic strap section stretches to accommodate changes in the circumference of the neck so as to maintain at least a minimum tensile force in the collar as the circumference of the neck varies from a minimum to a maximum value as result of normal movement of the animal's head to thereby maintain the position of the electronic device against the neck.
