They can handle a little icecream, but frozen yogurt is better for them..No low-cal icecream, though, as artificial sweeteners are toxic to them.... I wouldn't feed any to a tiny dog...or more than a lick or two....Too easy to mess up their sugar levels.

DOGGIE ICE CREAM. Most dogs are considered lactose intolerant. Dogs in general don't have enough of the enzyme lactase, so regular ice cream is a no-no. Look specifically for ice cream made for dogs (or made without milk/chocolate products). Also, NEVER chocolate ice cream or ANY chocolate. Chocolate is poisonous to dogs. It can even be LETHAL.

A little ice cream once in a while its ok but just plain vanilla not chocolate and or artificial sweeteners because they are poisonous for them . I feed my dogs fruits vegetables real meat and fish , they also eat their regular food when they have to , They are 9 year old and very healthy I think most of the dog food you find at the supermarkets are not good for them . I see a lot of cases of dogs that are only fed their regular food and most of the time they get sick lots of them get lumps or cancer. Im sorrry but I had to mention it .

They can but it's best not to. Dogs and cats bodies can't digest milk and milk products very well. If you do it should be a very small amount and make sure it isn't chocolate flavor and has chocolate chips or fudge and stuff like that in it. The best would be plain vanilla. You can also buy dog icecream at the supermarket.

Ice cream for dogs is as bad for them as it is for you. Too much is a bad thing for either of us. Use similar caution when offering it to your dog. Just avoid chocolate flavors, since too much chocolate can kill a dog.
When I was a kid, the family used to take our boxer for a walk to the dairy queen where you could buy a doggie cone. That dog was never so happy... Sharing a cone with your boxer is beautiful thing. Ok. Maybe not beautiful, but fun anyway.

I'm doing basic obedience right now. My trainer hasn't once handled my dog. He has shown me how to handle my dog by using his own dog but that's about it. The reasoning is that I need to learn how to do these basic corrections and what not myself. Learn more https://tinyurl.im/ZUHCB
I have never considered sending my dog away for training. I guess I haven't found that much of a problem with him to even think about it.
Again, it may also have to do with the level of training you are looking for etc. No idea lol. I'm not a trainer. I think a first time dog owner needs to learn simple commands and how to handle their dog themselves as well.

Yes, but only vanilla and in small amounts. Do not feed your dog ice cream every day!

Most dog owners want their dogs to be trained; In fact, many dog lovers, including Gary Shmerling, see to it that their pets undergo a series of effective dog training. Although they are inherently smart, not all dog breeds can be easily trained. Many owners are having a hard time training their pets with even the simplest of commands. While some dogs are fond of the training process, and the treats given, most breeds need proper guidance and consistent dog training.
Dog training can take so much of your time and effort as well as money, and of course - patience or understanding. However, your efforts will become fruitful if done the right and fun way. Training your dog need not be harsh; you can't even expect to see immediate results. But the best thing is, there are so many ways on how you can effectively and easily train your dog.
1. Information is always the key.
Be aware of the characteristics of your dog breed as such information can help you determine the kind and level of training needed. You must be knowledgeable with the basics if you want to successfully train your dog, especially if you chose to do the training all by yourself. Of course, research is your only tool in terms of gathering the right and sufficient dog training information.
2. Lengthen your patience. Give sufficient time and effort.
If you're moody and impatient, then it's best to have somebody else train your dog. Your patience and your effort are what your pet badly need. Without those two, you can't be consistent; and that's also essential for an effective dog training. You must first evaluate yourself whether you are qualified to train a dog or not so that unfavorable results can be avoided.
It is a must that you start training your dog while he or she is still young, particularly when it comes to obedience training. By doing so, you can have your dog avoid unpleasant and aggressive behaviors. Moreover, don't let your emotions spoil the process.
3. Discipline well. Be reasonable.
Learn when to reward and when to reprimand your dog's behavior, not just during the training but also when interacting with your family. Discipline the right way and do not spoil or punish your dog excessively. You can ignore or deprive your dog with some treats but should not, as much as possible, hit him/her with a stick or even a rolled magazine. Physical punishment would only result to disobedience and aggression. Efficacy can be achieved if dog training is done in a consistent manner, with care and reason.
4. Use the right resources.
Find out which dog training tools are suitable for your dog breed. Make sure you have a dog leash and collar as well as muzzles, crates and clickers. Know where and how to start with such tools.
Train on the best places. Look for a particular location wherein your dog can focus with the training; avoid distracting places like a crowded park. For starters, it is wise to do the training on your backyard; however, the location may still depend on the kind of training you want your dog to accomplish.
5. When all else fails or if you really don't have the time to successfully finish the kind of training you intend for your beloved dog, then go for the aid of a professional dog trainer. If you want the best dog training, then be prepared to make the investment.

It's not worth the risk. If you love your pet, giving them human food or excess sugar isn't the best way to show it. Give them attention and praise, and long walks. Much better for them and it will make them very happy. Dogs are susceptible to very serious health issues if you give them too much fat or sugar found in a lot of our human foods. Obesity, diabetes and even more serious, Pancreatitis will all shorten the life span of your pet. Giving your pet table scraps may seem harmless to you or make you feel that you are showing your pet how much you love them, when in fact, you are ensuring disease or death, and a painful one at that. I've watched friends spend thousands of dollars on beautiful pure bred animals, then "spoil" them with improper foods, and "oh poo" my concerns and warnings of doing so. Then watch them go through the devastation of losing their young pet only a few years later, left with exorbitant vet bills and a broken heart. It JUST ISN'T WORTH IT. Feed them good quality DOG food, grain free if possible, and your four legged friend will live a happy, healthy, LONG life. :)
