Those of you with pets, have they ever permanently damaged your braided solo loops by snagging them with their nails? I have two big golden retrievers. One is a couch potato but the other is rowdy and likes to paw for attention when I least expect an attack. I tend to wear my knockoff sport loops because of this but I am seriously tempted by that maize solo loop.

Yes. Retriever. 2 of them at that. Link bracelet works best. He has also tried to eat the watch itself
Thanks! Retrievers are something, aren’t they? So far mine hasn’t tried to eat my watch, but he did chew through the power cord to the Xfinity gateway the day after it was installed. And Xfinity doesn’t supply the power cords separately, so had to get a brand new box. For now I’ve ordered the magic ember Nike sport band, and maybe someday a braided solo that I can wear when I’m not within his range.

My golden likes to paw for attention too 🤦🏻‍♂️
I wouldn’t worry about it. Go with the braided maize you won’t be disappointed. It’s beautiful in my opinion. Very subtle color in person.

Ps. Just saw the pictures of your Golden’s on your profile. They look adorable 😊

Thank you, I think they’re pretty adorable too, although I might be biased. 😊 I’ve only ever had goldens for the past 35 years. My current two have brought me a lot of love and laughter during some dark times. And I will probably ask Santa for that maize solo loop. I didn’t have an AW when bands like pollen were available, and I’ve been waiting for a mellower yellow to come along because I just wasn’t fond of ginger or sunflower. 🌽

Dogs mess up your stuff every once and awhile, part of the owner experience. I can't get mad at them because they're so sweet and innocent. I can honestly say I'd rather have my dog do it than kids!
Haha, yes I love them so much despite the pawprints on the floors and noseprints on the glass doors and the tumbleweeds of dog hair (thank goodness for Roomba). My older one is sweet and gentle and the younger one is a ball of energy but also the snuggliest dog I’ve ever had. I cant imagine life without them. ❤️
