A safety restraint for securing a dog to the seat of an automotive vehicle includes a one-piece harness having opposing tabs secured to each other by releasable adhesive strips at the chest and beneath the shoulders and flanks of the animal, and permitting freedom of movement but providing a shock distributing shell about the body length of the animal. A pair of rings coupled to the side of the harness in the region of the shoulder and flank of the animal are releaseably coupled to clips mounted on a pair of belts secured about the back of the seat. The clips are individually slidable in upward and downward directions along the lengths of the belts by separate straps which receive the clips and extend along portions of the length of the belts. This permits the animal to stand, sit or lie on the seat while at the same time limiting sideward or forward motion of the animal in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Shocks are partially absorbed within the belt and harness structure, and forces that are not absorbed are uniformly distributed in such manner that there is no injury to the spinal column or localized tightening or restraint.
