an anchor being attached to the second end of the tether, the anchor having length dimension extending from a first lateral edge to a second lateral edge and a width dimension extending from a front side to a rear side, the length dimension being elongated with respect to the width dimension;
the tether being secured to the anchor such that a longitudinal axis of the anchor extending through the first and second lateral edges forms an angle with a horizontal plane between 0° and 45° when the anchor is hung freely from the tether
a biasing member being attached to the anchor, the biasing member being actuated to urge the longitudinal axis toward a vertical orientation; and
