My toy poodle likes to sleep in my lap when I am working. Unfortunately when I need to get up I have to scoop him up and put him down on the floor, where he waits, sourly, until I sit down again.

A 5" wide belt covered with velcro should be enough to hold up a small dog, which will just ride around stuck to it, and its owner, until the owner sits down again.

Yes, I know it is similar to the Doggy Velcro Seat, although the purpose is different. There is the same problem of getting the dog off it, but perhaps the dog can just wear the belt when not in use attached to a person.

If you are strolling round with a poodle in that position people are sure to wonder how it is 'attached' to its owner.

Welcome to the halfbakery.

Only works for unshaved Poodles, but handy nonetheless. Especially when you want to keep them from nipping at the children or running off, just velcro them to a tree. [+]

I think the poodle will be wondering how it is attached, as well.

I wonder, do poodles wonder?

Perhaps you would not need the pet belt if your puppy's coat were treated with ShamPoodlehooks(tm) shampoo. High strength polymers cause stiffening of the coat, allowing secure attachment to (female) velcro pads without resorting to a doggy belt.

I'm afraid GM would be required for Fido's owner to grow velcro belly loops.

I wonder how many poodles a person could wear at once?

Well, for your average fashion model, probably two teacups and a toy. For the typical mall walking leviathan, three standards and a miniature.
