Breast Harness
- A form of harness adopted occasionally, which does away with the collar and gives the horse a breast-strap instead to work against.
Breeching is connected with all the harness upon a horse's hindquarters, which consists of the crupper, a divided strap which is slipped over and behind the horse's tail; the crupper dock connecting this with the saddle. The breeching is the strap which passes round behind the horse, and helps him in backing and stopping a carriage.
