The collar and waistband, together with the attachment thereto of the lateral pieces, are adjustable to properly fit the animal. The restraint unit prohibits the animal from twisting its body laterally, thus preventing the animal from traumatizing posterior portions of its body which have undergone surgery or are inflicted which a dermatological problem. Similarly, the restraint unit prevents the animal from scratching anterior portions of its body.

The restraint may also have a thoracic attachment mounted thereon prohibiting raising of the front legs so as to prevent pawing of the head area and/or jumping.
