Tanner loves ice. When he was a puppy and started teething, ice cubes just about saved my sanity. He would wake, crying in the middle of the night and nothing I did would make him happier until he could go out and eat snow. This got old very quickly and in a fit of sleep deprived inspiration, I gave him some ice cubes. After that, every time his teeth started bothering him, I would go down and get him a bowl of ice cubes. He would happily crunch them up and when he was finished, we could both go back to sleep. He outgrew the teething but not the love of ice cubes. Now that the cold weather is here, Tanner is having fun with one of his favorite winter toys - frozen puddles.
Wow, I thought we were the only ones that had a dog that lives for ice! We have a weimaraner that keeps our deck clean in the winter and runs for the kitchen when someone opens the freezer. Glad to know he's not the only one with this issue!
