wagsalot Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Its Riley's 6th birthday today and I ran out of time to bake him a doggy cake. I was just going to get a plain sponge one from the supermarket for him, but OH wants an icecream cake (yes, the dogs birthday is a good excuse for us to have cake! ) Would icecrem cake do him any harm? It would only be a small bit, and ofcourse this is a once off thing only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaywoman68 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I haven't had a problem with feeding my 2 a little bit of ice-cream every now and then. I seem to remember reading in old threads people buy a whole ice-cream for their dogs to Riley!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 When we are on holidays, visiting OH's mother in Melb, we take the dogs for a trip to Altona Beach and then on the way home, they all get a dipper of Vanilla Ice Cream in a cup each as a treat Plus, they get to lick the empty ice cream container at home.

noisymina Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 They will survive a little ice cream, I'm sure. BUT Ice cream is no good for humans, let alone dogs. Maybe some frozen yogurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 God I hope not (in moderation). It's Big Ted's favourite treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowser Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Just make sure that you don't feed any CHOCOLATE icecream, or macadamias, or any of the other 'no no' foods for dogs. Small amounts of icecream should be fine, but due to the fat content and as some dogs are very intolerant of dairy, it should only be an occasional treat. My dogs seem to disagree with me on that though, and will always try to snaffle our dessert and steal paddle pop sticks etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilly Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I occassionally buy a box of home ice-cream ice-blocks - the ones with vanilla ice-cream centre and chocolate coating. I get to eat the chocolate off the outside (on two ice-creams) and the boys get their own ice-cream to lick off the stick. They only get them once in a while otherwise they can cause a little tummy upset and give them the runs ... but that wouldn't stop them at all. They love their ice-creams ....

Perry's Mum Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Perry thinks that a scoop of vanilla icecream with liver sprinkles on top is one of the essential major food groups and insists we stop for it on the way back from sheepdog school.

Would love some pics. Edited January 10, 2007 by birgulparis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
