A '''pet harness''' is equipment consisting of straps of [[webbing]] that loop nearly around—that fasten together using [[Buckle#Types of buckles|side release buckle]]s—the torso of an animal.

These harnesses generally are made to have both a strap on the chest in front of the forelimbs, and a strap around the torso behind the forelimbs, with straps in between connecting these two. Having a [[D-ring]] suitable for ([[pet tag]]s and) a [[leash]] to clip to, they are most often used to restrain an animal, but dogs also particularly wear them to assist a person with a [[disability]] or [[mushing|haul people and items]]. There is also the ''lifting harness'' for dogs with disabilities.

Harnesses come in different sizes, although many are size-adjustable with [[tri-glide slide]]s to loosen or shorten the straps' length. The straps may come in a range of different colors, and some have reflective coating.
