Fill with water, freeze overnight, and let your dog work through the melt. The classic ice lolly shape gives dogs a familiar grip point and a satisfying surface to lick around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable in Mini and Large:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Mini is well suited to smaller breeds, puppies, and dogs that prefer a lighter toy, while the Large is better suited to medium and larger dogs for a longer session.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSustained cooling enrichment:\u003c\/strong\u003e As the ice melts, the toy releases cold water steadily — a focused, calming activity that keeps dogs occupied for considerably longer than a standard treat or chew.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGentle teething relief:\u003c\/strong\u003e The chilled surface provides natural soothing comfort for puppies in the teething stage, and the Mini size makes it particularly manageable for younger, smaller dogs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecognisable design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The ice lolly shape is easy for dogs to hold in their paws or work against a surface, giving them a natural way to interact with the toy without it rolling away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReusable and low maintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rinse, refill, refreeze.

Freeze for a minimum of two hours — overnight is ideal. Serve straight from the freezer on a drip-friendly surface or outdoors. Supervise your dog throughout play, as these toys are designed for licking and gentle interaction. Remove and replace immediately if the toy shows cracking, splitting, or if any part begins to detach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSize guide\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mini is recommended for small breeds, puppies over eight weeks, and dogs that prefer lighter toys. The Large suits medium to large breeds and dogs that benefit from a longer cool-down session. If your dog is between sizes or tends to be rough with toys, we recommend sizing up to the Large for a more durable experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSuitable for\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for dogs from puppyhood onwards, with size selected according to the guide above. Always supervise play. Not suitable for dogs whose instinct is to bite through and destroy toys rather than lick and engage.

The Large is better suited to medium and larger breeds, and to dogs that benefit from a longer licking session. If you are unsure, go Large — it works well for most dogs and will last longer per session.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eHow do I fill and freeze it correctly?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eFill the toy through its opening with cold water, then stand it upright in the freezer with the hole facing up so no water escapes during freezing. A minimum of two hours is needed — overnight gives the best result. Take it directly from the freezer to your dog on a surface that can handle a little water, or take it outside.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eIs the Mini suitable for young puppies?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eThe Mini is well suited to puppies over eight weeks as the smaller size is easier to manage and the cold surface helps soothe teething discomfort. Always supervise puppies throughout play and inspect the toy for damage before each session. If your puppy is very young or still on a milk diet, check with your vet before introducing any frozen toy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eMy dog destroys most toys — is this suitable?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eThese toys are designed for licking and gentle interaction, not heavy chewing. We would not recommend them for dogs who bite through soft or flexible toys, as detached pieces could pose a choking risk. For strong chewers, a more robust enrichment option would be more appropriate. As with any toy, always supervise play and remove immediately if any damage occurs.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eCan I add something to the water to make it more interesting?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eYes — a small amount of diluted low-salt chicken or beef stock added to the water before freezing can increase engagement for less food-motivated dogs. Keep additions minimal and always check the stock contains no onion, garlic, or added salt. Dog-safe fruit puree (avoiding grapes, citrus, and anything with xylitol) also works well. Plain water is fine for most dogs once the habit is established.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eWhat is it made from?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eThe toy is made from flexible, food-safe material designed to hold water when frozen.
