Making doggy ice cream yourself: You should still keep this in mind

Although doggy ice cream is a welcome change on hot summer days, you should not spoil your four-legged friend with it too often.

The cold can lead to stomach problems and diarrhea if consumed frequently.

In moderation, however, there should normally be no complaints, so your dog can easily enjoy its refreshing treat.

We wish you and your four-legged friend lots of fun trying out our doggy ice cream recipes!
