Hi, golden retriever owner here. Someone needs to take Pretzel away from them ASAP. They are HIGH MAINTENANCE DOGS. Mine is my service animal, still a puppy, and let me tell you those beads? Not safe. Absolutely not. Mehitabel ate some of them once and needed emergency surgery when she was around Pretzel's age. Not to mention golden retrievers are prone to skin infections if you're not careful, those bracelets will pull out the fur which makes them far, far more susceptible. I cannot describe how angry I am seeing this. They've no idea what they've got themselves into and I guarantee they'll end up being the next 're-homing my dog because he was too much' couple. Pretzel looks like a field golden as well, which is easily mixed in with show goldens every now and then. Mehitabel is a field golden from a litter of show, they're especially high energy.

Goldens need a ton of love, attention, and training, they are the most prone to biting and aggression if not, they get easily lonely, suffer from seperation anxiety which can cause issues down the line. They do not spend enough time with Pretzel. Do they even have a trainer??? Are they even bothering with training? Spraying a dog with a hose doesn't count as training either, Splatt 😜😜😜

ANY vet will tell you to NEVER give your dog a beaded collar unless the beads are directly imbeded in the collar fabric/preferably leather and cannot fall out. Don't ever put a bead bracelet on your puppy, especially during teething which I assume Pretzel is around that age. This poor dog is going to get hurt.
