DEFINITION

Classification: 119/818

Leg or arm connected to diverse area of body (e.g., to collar, halter, etc.):

(under subclass 816) Subject matter wherein the animal-carried leg or arm limiting means includes structure attachable both to a leg or arm and to a different portion of the animal other than the same leg or arm to limit movement of the leg or arm with respect to the different portion of the animal.

(1) Note. Connection of a leg or arm to a different portion of the body may be made by tethering the leg or arm to a harness, saddle, collar, or other similar claimed or unclaimed diverse structure mounted on or supported from the different portion of the body, and the diverse structure may serve a purpose other than leg or arm restraint, the only requirement being that the leg or arm limiting structure have some capability of being connected to the diverse structure

such as by a hook, buckle, or even by tying.
