Dog Days of Summer

Summer is meant for fun, but the heat can be overwhelming. This woman decided to cool off with a cone of ice cream, snapping a selfie in the process. Her dog’s unimpressed look in the background tells a different story—clearly disappointed its owner didn’t get it a treat, too!

While dogs can eat ice cream, it should be in moderation and only in specific types. Vanilla or dog-friendly ice cream made from safe ingredients is best. Avoid flavors with chocolate, caffeine, or artificial sweeteners like xylitol, which are harmful to dogs. A little indulgence can make those hot summer days enjoyable for both owner and pup!
