A protective garment for an animal's front legs, comprising:

• (a) an elongated back strap fittable over the back and shoulders of an animal;
• (b) a pair of leg holsters attached to opposite ends of said back strap and being tapered so as to fit around the front knees adjacent upper and lower front leg areas of the animal such that such areas are protected from direct contact with a surface upon which a dog may be lying so as to prevent callus development on and minimize hair loss from such areas of the animal;
