A pet harness (10) is made up of a plurality of straps (12, 13, 14) and a chest pad (11). The back strap (14) is formed of two sections (22, 23) which are attached by a buckle (25). A leash connector (30), which includes two brackets (31), is carried by the back strap (14). Each bracket (31) has a portion (33) which has an aperture (37) therein. When the brackets (31) are pivoted such that the portions (33) mate with each other, a snap connector of a leash may be attached through the aligned apertures (37). When access to the buckle (25) is desired, the brackets (31) may be pivoted away from each other when not connected to the leash.
