Patent ID: 7757639

Claim:
A pet leash assembly for simultaneously maintaining a plurality of pets at an untangled position during walking conditions, said pet leash assembly comprising: a primary leash having axially opposed looped ends; a first ring member slidably conjoined directly to one of said looped ends; a plurality of auxiliary leashes including first and second locking members positioned at opposed ends thereof; a second ring member directly and removably mated with a top one of said locking members associated with each of said auxiliary leashes; and means for rotatably anchoring said first and second ring members in such a manner that said auxiliary leashes remain spaced apart along unique travel paths while the pets cross over an adjoining one of the travel paths during walking conditions said rotatable anchoring means comprises a first male coupling having a spherical proximal end and further having a hollow distal end slidably positioned along said second ring member, an intermediately disposed female coupling having a spherical and hollow distal end rotatably positioned about said spherical end of said first male coupling such that said first male coupling and said female coupling are freely rotatable about each other, said female coupling further having a chamfered proximal end defining a linear groove therein, and a second male coupling slidably positional along said first ring member and including a linear insert removably interfitted within said linear groove of said female coupling; wherein said rotatably anchoring means is freely displaced along an entire circumference of each of said first and second ring members.
