Is it o.k. for me to give Keoki an ice cube as a treat? The last few days I have given him one and he loves it because I worry I give him too many treats but wanted your advice- is it bad for his teeth, etc??? Thanks

I give ice to my baby all the time. I am going to say that ice is OK because the ice is usually too cold for them to handle to really chew and do damage..she just plays with it and licks it lol.

Uni looooooooves ice, and ice water. If you put ice cubes in the water make sure all sides of the cube get wet. Once I put a cube in Uni's bowl and the top was dry still, while she drank her ice water her bangs got stuck into the cube! (Like have you ever touched an ice cube while your hand was wet and it got stuck?) She didn't cry though, and it was the funniest thing! I had to pull her hair out of the ice cube!

Oh and little miss spoiled over here doens't drink room temp water!

Sully loves ice cubes...especially when they are made out of chicken broth (kind of like a pupsicle)...we gave him these on a recent hot weather day out in the yard. Kept him cool and because it was "too hot" to eat - I wanted to be sure he was getting something good in his belly.
