Abstract

A dog lead 5 having a handle 6 and a hook 1 with a ball cradle 4 formed as a split in the lead, that can be used to lead a pet and throw a ball when used as a sling. An additional finger hold 2 allows for safer operation. The body may be nylon webbing or leather. This lead saves a dog walker from carrying a separate ball thrower as well as the lead handle.

Description

Title: Doglead ball thrower
Description
This invention relates to a device for leading a dog and throwing a ball. When walking a dog, an additional ball throwing device is often taken.
Most ball throwing devices also require the ball to be thrown with the hand elevated above the shoulder To overcome these problems, the present invention proposes a dog lead which can also be used to throw a ball. The cradle is designed to hold a tennis ball sized ball. There is an additional finger hold loop that helps the user to throw the ball and not let go of the hook used to connect to the dog lead. By cradling a ball and swinging the lead underhand the user can build centrifugal force that can be transferred to the ball for throwing it.
The invention will now be described solely by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows a top down view of the launchlead, Figure 2 shows a side view of the launchlead, Figure 3 shows a top down view of the launchlead with the cradle opened.
With your palm facing up, place the hook in the palm of your hand. You can also use the optional finger loop hold to secure the lead in position. Let the body of the lead hang between your index and middle finger Close your fingers over the hook so that your hand makes a fist with the hook inside the fist. Place the handle between your thumb and index finger. Hold the handle in place. Place a tennis ball sized ball in the cradle. Spin the Launchlead, and ball, in an underarm direction. At the correct moment release your thumb, and the ball will be released. Do not release your fingers. This ensures you remain holding the heavy metal hook when the ball is thrown clear.
Part list (refer to figures):
Part description:
