Abstract: |
An animal leash harness for a quadruped composed of an adjustable chest strap and an adjustable girth strap adapted for overlapped engagement along the back of the quadruped. The harness is positioned on the animal by bringing it down in front of the animal's head in an arc that terminates just above the animal's feet. Instinctively, the animal raises his feet whereby the harness can be brought up around its front legs and the buckle assembly engaged. One portion of the harness has an elongated leash hook slot and another portion is provided with a leash hook. The outer dimension of the hook is greater than the length of the slot.
