First Claim
1. A pet training device comprising:
- a) a rigid tube formed with a proximal end, at least one elbow, and a distal end;
b) a handle, attached at said proximal end of said rigid tube;
c) a flexible plunger rod disposed within said rigid tube, comprising a proximal end extending through said handle, and a distal end extending proximate to said distal end of said rigid tube;
d) a thumb ring joined to said proximal end of said flexible plunger rod;
e) a plunger joined to said distal-end of said flexible plunger rod; and
f) a dispensing assembly comprising a tee having an inner branch joined to said distal end of said rigid tube;
a center port including a storage tube joined thereto for storage of edible rewards;
an outer branch; and

Abstract
A device for pet training comprising a rigid tube formed with at least one elbow, and having a cavity in at least the distal end thereof for insertion of edible rewards therein; a handle, attached at the proximal end of the rigid tube, a flexible plunger rod disposed within the rigid tube, comprising a proximal end extending through the handle, and a distal end extending proximate to the cavity in the distal end of the rigid tube; a thumb ring joined to the proximal end of the flexible plunger rod; and a plunger disposed within the cavity and joined to the distal end of the flexible plunger rod, wherein a user of the device may hold the rigid tube by the handle, move the thumb ring, and cause an edible reward to be dispensed from the cavity on the distal end of the rigid tube.
