Luminous necklaces and bracelets Were all familiar with the luminous necklaces, bracelets and hoops that are available from fair grounds and novelty shops, especially during Halloween and Bonfire Night. These often resemble chewy or throw toys, and dogs can be tempted to bite them, thus exposing themselves to the chemicals that are contained within. Although the chemicals inside these items are of low toxicity, they are irritant and can cause pain. Typically, hypersalivation and foaming/ frothing of the mouth is seen with immediate onset, along with possible hyperactivity and aggressive behaviour. Where ingestion has occurred, we would recommend a visit to your vet, especially if the chemicals have entered the eye.
