Can Dogs Eat Ice Cream

June 13, 2021 by brandyellen

You may see dogs eating their own ice cream cones when they visit the local ice cream shop with their owner. While many dog owners give their dogs a little treat when they visit the ice cream shop, most dogs are lactose intolerant.

This means too much ice cream could make your doggy ill. That’s why most ice cream shops will have a specific ice cream sundae for dogs. This isn’t a dairy ice cream, in most cases. The sundae for your pooch is typically a small portion of what appears to be ice cream with a biscuit in it.

This allows your furry companion to have an ice cream sundae with you but not have the side effects of being lactose intolerant. If you’re going to give your dog any ice cream, you’ll want it to be as close to natural as possible.

You see some flavors and other additives are horrible for your dog. They can cause some short and long-term health issues. Be sure you know the ingredients of whatever ice cream you’re putting into your dog’s belly before ordering that sundae for your pooch.

Another reason to be wary of feeding your dog ice cream is that it can lead to obesity. Combining the risks of health issues, tummy issues, and extra weight gain means that your dog can get rather unhealthy simply by eating too much ice cream with you.

Be sure to consider the repercussions of feeding your dog any ice cream before you venture out to the local ice cream shop. It’s imperative that you do your best to offer your dog a treat that’s healthy and safe for their overall health and happiness.

There are many homemade dog treats and ice cream options online that help you create a replica ice cream sundae for your dog. These are just a few tips today to help you determine what’s best to give your doggy during the summer months.

We know most of you will venture out to the local ice cream shop at some point, just be sure if you bring along your furry companion that you have some healthy and safe snack options for them, too!
