DEFINITION

Classification: 119/800

Lip or nose twitch:

(under subclass 712) Subject matter wherein the limiting means is used to inhibit movement of the animal by applying pressure to a fleshy, mouth-surrounding area, i.e., a lip area, or a nostril area of the animal.

(1) Note. While the lip or nose twitch applies pressure directly to the lip or nose of the animal it is used to inhibit more than just the lip or nose. It is usually used to inhibit the entire animal from moving while it is being worked upon, e.g., during shoeing, treating, etc.
