*False Warning* This article is being shared online and we want to advise pet owners that it is not true. Similar Internet warning claims have been posted in the past. This warning claimes that pet owners should never give their dogs ice water and cites a case of a show dog that suffered severe bloat after drinking water with ice in it. *The claims are untrue* Reports from veterinarians and our own vet with over 18 years of experience indicate that drinking ice or cold water is not inherently dangerous for dogs and does not cause bloat as claimed in the warning message. While the dog discussed in the message may have indeed suffered bloat, there is no evidence to support the claim that the condition was caused by ice. We suggest you always double check with your vet on things youre really unsure of but ice is safe. wendtworthcorgis.wordpress/2010/07/31/no-ice-water-for-dogs-please-read-asap/
