Abstract
An animal garment comprises a central portion having a longitudinal axis and including a front end, and a rear end opposite the front end, a first side extending laterally in a first direction from the longitudinal axis, the first side including a free distal end, and a second side extending laterally in a second direction from the longitudinal axis, the second side including a free distal end. When worn, the first side and the second side are configured to extend around the mid-body of the animal and fasten to each other forming a shape conforming to the outside of the mid-body of the animal. The front end of the central portion is positioned proximate to the head of the animal. The garment applies pressure to the animal adequate to reduce anxiety, fearfulness, overexcitement, or a combination thereof in the animal.
