DEFINITION

Classification: 119/761

Rigid extension having further connection to or support from diverse body area (e.g., nostril, leg, muzzle, etc.):

(under subclass 760) Subject matter including an additional animal attachment, other than the neck-encircling support, at a location other than the neck area.

(1) Note. For such a further attachment to a diverse body area of the animal to be classifiable in this subclass, it must not be the attachment most distally located on the extension, as set forth in the Note (2) of the previous subclass.

(2) Note. The additional attachment generally provides, for example, further stability for the support structure or a means to inflict discomfort to the animal, such as an attachment between the extension and a nose ring so that the extension will pull on the nose ring when the extension engages a fence.
