Design

Bright, easy to spot on the grass, and satisfying for dogs to work through — the Ice Paws Orange cooling toy keeps the concept refreshingly simple. Fill it with water, pop it in the freezer overnight, and hand it over when the temperature rises. The gradual melt gives your dog a focused, calming activity that occupies them for far longer than a standard treat, with no mess beyond a little water.

  • Cooling lick enrichment: As the ice melts, your dog works steadily through the cold surface — a calming, focused activity that channels energy constructively on warm days.
  • Bold, visible design: The bright orange shape is easy to spot on any surface, whether you're on the patio, the lawn, or out on a warm-weather walk.
  • Gentle teething relief: The chilled surface provides natural soothing for puppies in the teething stage, reducing the urge to chew furniture or household items during warmer months.
  • Helps dogs decompress: A frozen toy gives an overheated dog something purposeful to do after exercise — particularly useful when dogs are too hot to settle but too tired to play energetically.
  • Minimal preparation: Fill with water, freeze, serve. No specialist tools, no treats, no preparation time beyond the overnight freeze. Refill and repeat as often as needed.

How to use

Fill the toy through its opening with cold water, then stand it upright in the freezer with the opening facing up. Freeze for a minimum of two hours — overnight gives the most satisfying result. Serve straight from the freezer on a drip-friendly surface or outdoors. Supervise your dog throughout play, as this toy is designed for licking and gentle interaction rather than heavy chewing. Remove and replace immediately if the toy shows cracking, splitting, or if any part begins to detach.

Suitable for

Suitable for dogs of most sizes from puppyhood onwards, provided play is always supervised. Not recommended for dogs who bite through soft or flexible toys rather than lick and engage with them. Best used outdoors or on a water-resistant mat to contain the melt.

Common questions

How do I fill and freeze this correctly?
Fill the toy through its opening with cold water, then stand it upright in the freezer with the hole facing up to prevent water leaking out during freezing. Two hours is the minimum — overnight produces the best result. Serve directly from the freezer on a surface that can handle drips, or take it outside.
How long will it keep my dog busy?
On a warm day outdoors, expect around 20 to 40 minutes of engaged licking before the ice melts fully. In cooler or shaded conditions it lasts longer. The gradual release is the key — it keeps your dog coming back rather than finishing the reward in one go and moving on.
My dog is an aggressive chewer — is this appropriate?
No — this toy is intended for licking and gentle interaction, not chewing or biting through. For dogs that destroy soft or flexible toys quickly, this is not a suitable option, as detached pieces could pose a choking risk. We would recommend a more robust enrichment toy for powerful chewers. Always supervise play regardless of your dog's chewing style.
Can I use this in a paddling pool or garden water play?
The toy can float on water, so it can be used in a shallow paddling pool as part of water play on hot days — though the ice will melt more quickly in warmer water. If using in water, still supervise your dog closely throughout to ensure they do not attempt to bite through the toy or submerge themselves for extended periods.
Is this suitable for puppies?
Yes — frozen toys are particularly helpful for teething puppies as the chilled surface soothes inflamed gums. Always supervise puppies during play and inspect the toy for damage before each session. If your puppy is very young or still on a milk diet, consult your vet before introducing any frozen toy.
What is it made from?
The toy is made from flexible, food-safe material designed to hold water when frozen. For the precise material specification, contact Ancol directly or reach out to us at info@hairydogs.co.uk and we will confirm with the supplier on your behalf.
