Portable Electric Fence Systems
A temporary electrified fence enclosure system utilizing movable storable fence posts and flexible electrified ribbons that are retractably reeled within the fence post. Each fence post comprises an internal power source. Each electrified ribbon is coupled mechanically to other fence posts to create the enclosure. The system is preferably stored or removably attached to a trailer, such as a horse trailer, and is quickly and easily set-up.

Dally Practicing Systems
A dally practicing system which simulates the conditions of roping a steer with relative safety. The portable dallying practice system takes up slack in a rope without applying excessive tension which could injure the user, provides a clutch system which allows for convenient manipulation of the tension, and provides a safety release mechanism which automatically releases the tension if the tension becomes excessive.

Heeling/Heading Roping Practicing System
A compact lightweight portable heeling/heading rope practicing system with a detachable head portion that provides automated movement simulating the movement of bovine legs using pendular motion driven by a hand cranked spring mechanism and/or electric powered motor, and a method of promoting the sale of such rope practicing systems in conjunction with events in which potential purchasers already participate.

System for Thermal Control of Outdoor Pet Enclosure
A system for transferring ambient air from an interior of a house to a pet enclosure external of the house, thus allowing for the pet enclosure to receive cooled or heated air approximating the temperature of the house. An electric fan housed in a preformed enclosure is installable in, or on, the house exterior wall. An air conduit between the fan and pet enclosure is preferably provided by a flexible rubber transfer duct which may vary in length. Conduit connections at the house and at the pet enclosure use a gasket/flange sealing system. A damper to avoid backflow of air is provided near the fan. And a protective cover at the pet enclosure limits access from the pet enclosure to the conduit. An end cap to protect the house when the duct is not in use is also shown.

Harness System
A harness system for aiding a mounted rider in maintaining a substantially upright position during a riding procedure. Additionally, it specifically provides a harness system that aids a rider in maintaining a substantially upright position in the saddle during the delivery of a roping procedure.

Animal Litter Scoop Retaining System
An animal litter scoop retaining system is described for creating a litter box area, protected from the digging and other motions of a cat or similar animal, for storing animal litter scoops "stabbed" into the litter. A preferred bar member extends diagonally across a corner of, and within, a typical rectangular litter box and is detachably attached to the litter box, thus separating a small corner litter area for "stabbing" the scoop into the litter and a large area for normal litter use. The bar member blocks off the small corner litter area at least at the height from the litter box bottom of about half the overall height of the litter box. And the bar member, for efficiency, is preferably raised off the bottom and not extending substantially above a height of about half the overall height of the litter box above the bottom.
