Thank you for relying PetCoach today to ask if you can give your dog ice cream cone. I can't say that it's the best idea for Jovie, but I would be lying if I said I haven't give my dog a small amount of [ice cream](https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/ice-cream/) from time to time. You might expect some diarrhea from ice cream, but that is likely the worst consequence she may have. Beagles have tough tummies in my experience since they tend to eat just about everything. Minor upset can typically be managed at home with a short fast followed by a bland diet fed in small, frequent amounts until symptoms resolve. Transition slowly to the regular diet afterwards.
