Can Dogs Drink Ice Water?
Hoax-Slayer: Ice Water Harmful To Dogs
Gentlemen,
I’m enjoying the podcast very much – nicely done! Driving home from the cottage today with my wife and daughter I listened to TRC308 then put to them the question of dogs drinking ice water – concerned for our wonderful black lab Nellie, who likes ice cubes. They were 50/50 split until I imparted your research and wisdom. THEN I said that it’s different for humans since at my gym (a big brand name thing) there are ‘hints for workouts’ recommending ice water when working out to keep your body temperature down. My daughter – an avid user of another gym at a big Canadian University says that’s baloney and all their water is lukewarm and well it should be. So, I hope you can extend your excellent research on dogs to ‘humans while working out’. Ice water? good or bad?
Cheers
Stephen
