Does your yorkie like to eat...

[Lovestruck304]

my yorkie loves to chomp on ice I didn't find this out until after I dropped a cube on the kitchen floor and she zipped after it like lightning! At first I was afraid of her having it but then I saw that it was OK. Now whenever I opt not to give her her chicken treats, she thinks she is getting something special when I toss an ice cube on the floor. I especially like to give it to her on a day like today, when she is hot after her walk at the park. It's so cute the way she skids after it and runs off with it in her mouth!

lol, suki plays with it licks it a few times then gets bored. the dog i had before used to love ice. i wish suku did as much . i drop alot of ice

[Lovestruck304]

The ice is even BETTER than a treat because it keeps her occupied for a little bit! So I can get something I want done. Bailey especially likes to nip at my heels when I sit down to write or pay bills or something, so if I just toss a piece of ice she is good.

lol yes peace and quiet only comes along so often. phew glad i dont have kids

Now if only there were something just as good around bedtime. She will only sleep in bed with me and she loves to bark and bite and is in a playful mood the second I lay down...urgh.

Ha! Muffin used to do that. You just need to wear her out before you go to bed! They have all of that puppy energy.

The ice you mentioned is especially good for them when they're teething at around 4 to 5 months. It helps relieve the feverish gums.

Yep, Bailey is about to turn 5 months old and she loves the ice.

Avie loves ice too! She will lick it real quick, then flick it around for a little bit (with her lil but up in the air ).. it's the funniest thing to watch! ..then she eventually eats it. haha. too funny to hear about all the yorkie babies & how they eat the ice!

[YorkichonBella]

Yes, Bella Loves it too! You can always hear the sound of 4 paws running to the fridge when you get crushed ice. If we drop some....oh well, she'll get em. Sometimes, I put them in her plate. She thinks they're Treats!!

We do a big water dish and 2 bowls of crushed ice--they love the crushed ice and they tell me when the bowl needs to be refilled. LOL

pebbles and bam bam do the same thing. ususally i play with pebbles 30 minutes straight before bed and she is tuckered out by the time my head hits the pillow.. with bam bam i hold a bully stick for him while im falling asleep and after like 10 minutes he is out

also, yes.. pebbles loves ice!! especially when shes outside

[margaritaville]

both of mine love crushed ice.

izzy loves ice too. i wish i had an ice crusher though because the ice cubes are too big for him. so what he will do is, fling it around...chase it then he will eventually eat it after it gets small enough to chomp on. it is so funny watching him!

wow i never tried giving my ice...i might just do it now...hehe
