ABSTRACT:
The instant invention is a two piece waist mounted harness for use in hands free exercising of pets. The two pieced waist harness includes a back portion which is enlarged and padded and can be placed about a persons waist with a front portion which allows for ease of securement by the use of hook and loop attachment. A nylon strap engages the entire circumference of the first and second portion of the waist harness to prevent disengagement of the harness during use. The waist harness includes multiple attachment loops to allow for caring of addition items including attachment of multiple pets. A pouch is formed integral to the waist harness for carrying of small items such as pet treats. In addition, a flexible strap is provided for carrying of bottled water. The front portion of the waist harness is securable to a quick release snap mechanism that allows for engagement of multiple tethered pets and for quick disengagement as necessary.
