A dog harness to which a leash is attachable. When installed on the dog, the harness acts to inhibit the dog from straining against the leash without, however, producing a choking action. The harness comprises a collar that encircles the neck of the dog, and left and right restraint cables whose leading ends are connected to the front section of the collar at left and right positions thereon. The restraint lines go loosely under the left and right foreleg pits of the dog and through respective slip rings attached to the rear section of the collar adjacent its center, the trailing ends of the cables terminating in a coupler to which the leash is attached. When, therefore, the harnessed dog strains at the leash, this acts to tighten the restraint cables which then impose a pressure on the foreleg pits. Because these pits are highly sensitive, in order to relieve this pressure, the dog will then cease to strain against the leash and thereby again loosen the restraint cable.
