Yes it's fine, it is a refreshing treat for them and let's them cool down. I give ice to my dog as a treat on a hot summer day. He enjoys it! After all, ice is really just water so why not?
But, hopefully (I don't think you are) feeding him ice as his meal. He should be getting regular dog food for meals, and ice as a treat.

yes its OK for the most part. As the dog gets older you may want to feed it smaller pieces of ice since their teeth like humans gets weaker.

Yes.
Mine think that they are getting a special treat as it comes out of the refridgerator where all the good stuff is.
Mine love it and it is a great way to get extra water into them when it is hot.
Good if you have a teething puppy too.

Yes. I feed ice to my Golden Retriever all the time. He loves it. It is just water and no harder than bones, I don't see the problem. We also give him popsicles and freeze pops. He loves them even more because they're people food.

Just make sure the ice cubes are small so the dog does not choke.

yes, my dogs get ice all the time. It's hilarious when I dump it in their water bowl, they try to catch it and can't. I usually have to refill the water afterwards, cuz they dug it all out of the bowl, lol.
