Esme is very easily entertained with an ice cube!

She runs around with it and drops it when it's too cold. Then she chases it as it skids across our tile floor, picks it up and starts again. The funniest part is when the ice cube is all melted and she is searching for it. It's adorable!

We have a cat Sophie that comes running when she hears us getting ice (we have one that is in the door). She doesn't really like big pieces of ice though she just looks for the little chips.

Chachi does this too. He's a sneaky little devil!

Not only does Cookie come running when she hears it coming out of the frig door but she knows the sound of ice in your cup so she'll give u this look like I know what's in that cup...."Can I have a piece?"

Yup, I have the fridge door ice thing too and my dogs BOTH come running when they hear it! It's too cute

I gave Beau an ice cube last night (after I rinsed it off so it wouldn't stick to his tongue right out of the freezer), he played with it a little bit but didn't seem that interested. Kind of made me nervous cause as the cube melts and it's small enough to get in his mouth, what if he swallows it and gets choked?

I worry and think too much.

Maybe Beau is too young to appreciate a good ice cube!

I worry and I think too much too, so you are not alone! I always supervise Esme when she plays with ice cubes, greenies, or anything else that could be a choking hazard. It's good that you care for your baby!

Bodhi'sMom · 03-25-2005, 08:57 PM

I'm the same way, worried about the choking with the ice cube. Heck, also that he may be getting too cold as Bodhi's front paws get wet. I'll have a towel nearby to keep wiping his paws.

I use the plastic applesauce cups for an ice mold, then invert it into a glass casserole dish. There are never any saturated spots on the carpet as it is always being kicked around.

The moment he begins playing with another toy, I'll put the ice cube in the sink.

I won't let him see me take it away, though.

Does anyone actually see their puppy using it on their gums? Seems like Bodhi is just having fun with it.

The other day my roommate accidentally dropped an ice cube and gracie grabbed it and ran!!! It was SO funny the way she was playing with it...when she was done her front two legs were soaked and so was her face...It is nice to hear that everyone elses puppies eat ice cubes because she really liked it and I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to give them to her.

Mystify79 · 04-25-2005, 11:25 AM

I tried to give Tuffy and Pixie ice cubes and they looked at me like I was insane!

Tuffy sniffed it and then gave it a tiny lick and then decided it was horrible and ran off.. after watching him Pixie decided it must not be worth trying. They are so silly.

DiOrGiRLy · 05-18-2005, 05:25 AM
