Light splashes are fine and many pups wear their Happy Beads at the beach.
The charm is stainless steel with a durable PVD gold coating.
The ring is plated alloy, so after ocean swims we recommend a quick rinse with fresh water and a full dry to keep it looking its best.
Measuring Your Dog
Use a soft tape measure (not a hard one)
Measure around your dog's neck, where you'd like the necklace to naturally sit
Allow a little extra room for a soft drape — these are decorative slip-ons, not collars
If your dog is between sizes, size up
