    Hi All

    Is it safe to give dogs ice cubes?

    I do, I freeze cheap tins of tuna mixed in with them. Dexter/Angela on the forums gave me that fab idea of freezing toys in there too! Definitely going to try that one too. Ours get large ones, made using snack/dip trays as moulds, not tried the usual small ice cube size.

    I gave Hattie & Charlie Ice Lollies yesterday, it was the funniest thing ever, they sat paws holding the stick and ate them like a child would, of course I watched them carefully and removed the sticks as soon as they were finished.

    I filled Charlie's bowl with ice cubes last night - he loved it.

    She is great. Sleepy with the heat. How is jasper? We got her a pool, not sure it cools her down as she ends up spinning around in it then has a mad half hour!

    I can report from a prolific ice consumer with a sensitive tummy that we haven't had any tummy upsets through ice.Ive read something recently( maybe on here?) that you should run it under water in case it sticks to their tongue...in our case it's in the melting stage by the time I've got it to the garden.....
