Where and when can I buy this, tired of unwaned puppies. Would rather use this and have puppies when it is the best time for my female to breed.

I’m surprised this isn’t obvious in light of human chastity belts. I’m also terrified to think of what kinds of devices came up in the prior art search.

Gene,

Yes, you are missing the point.

Follow the logic: Pets are people; therefore my female dog is my daughter; I want my daughter to remain a virgin until she is “married”.

Simple, yes?

Thanks for the info Col. O.

Do you have any information, or does anyone have any information, relating to the size of the market for an invention like this? A key question for inventors to consider is the size of the relevant market and whether there are products being sold by others that are sufficient to meet the needs. Whenever you invent you need to make sure that your invention is enough of an advance over other products AND what is in the prior art which may not be actually on the market.

Not a mass market, you are right, but a niche. Dog breeders have use for such items. It appears from the drawings that fecal matter does not pass through the mesh, which is secured just below the anal opening.
