Sharing a treat
26 Jan
It is no secret that I absolutely love ice cream. I eat a small scoop of frozen yogurt pretty much every night for dessert…and I jump at any opportunity to visit Dairy Queen or our local “you say when” yogurt shop. Heck, I even love a plain vanilla cone from McDonald’s off of the Dollar Menu (it’s the only thing I ever go there for).
Apparently Lucia has adopted the same penchant for frozen treats. (P.S. – did you know that if you have your pup with you at Dairy Queen they will give him/her a small cup of ice cream? They call it a “pup cup,” and it is free!) My girl knows what’s good…
Look at her…eyeing the prize…trying to look extra cute and hoping that I’ll be generous…
The problem here is that I really love a good ice cream cone, and I don’t like to share. How selfish of me…
But you know what? I can’t resist that little face. Darn her! I caved and let her have the bottom bite of my cone. Aren’t I nice?
Does your pet love ice cream or other cold treats?
We give our dogs Frosty Paws (dog ice cream) as a special treat. In the summer time I like to make it myself. There are tons of recipes online, but it’s pretty simple – vanilla yogurt, a banana, peanut butter, and a little honey.
Strachans (at least the one in Downtown Dunedin) will give your dog a pup cone and they have an outdoor area to sit. We always forget to take Murphy when we go for ice cream, but I am determined to remember him next time.
Maggie also has that pitiful stare … she always wins a taste….McDonalds cones – OOOOhhh Yaaa!
Am still hoping to have my own puppy. Maybe this year?
Those photos are super cute and I love mcdonalds cones!! Oh yeah! 
You really can’t beat a $1 McDonald’s cone! Such a lovely cheap treat!
We used to buy them Frosty Paws for after summer walks- they love it!
