A back section has a forward end and a rearward end. A coupler attaches the chest and back sections to each other and includes an opening to receive a head of the dog. A connector secures the stomach section to the back section. A control strap includes a first strap section and a second strap section each having a first end attached to the chest section. A loop is attached to the first and second strap sections distal to the first ends. A pair of guides is attached to the back section. Each of the guides receives one of the strap sections.
