The patent application relates to an elastic shoulder strap system (1) for animal harnesses (20), which is fixed to the back part (5) of the animal harness (20), to the lining (19) thereof, which lining (19) is lined at least partially by a neck lining (25), and two shoulder straps (9) are connected to a connecting element (8) located on the axis line (4), forming a "V" shape, in a manner that allows them to turn within a given angle range, sliding on the neck lining (25) together, simultaneously and independently of each other, separately, along a curve determined by the curve path of the connecting element (8).There is at least one connecting portion (7) of elastic design on the side of the connecting element (8) opposite to the shoulder straps (9), forming a structural unit with the connecting element (8) and the shoulder straps (9) to constitute the elastic shoulder strap system (1), which moves in the direction of both the vertical axis line (22) and the axis line (4) to the extent of the stretching of the connecting portion (7) of elastic design, and the shoulder straps (9) are capable of elastic displacement to different extents within an alpha angle range simultaneously, depending on the extent and direction of the stretching of the connecting portion (7) as a function of the direction and extent of the pulling or tugging forces acting through the leash connector (2).
