Blue Ice packs have propylene glycol which in pure form is typically toxic, but the level of glycol present in Blue Ice pack is not toxic. Your dog should be fine even if he eats some of the blue liquid inside. Although the liquid is unlikely to cause problems, it's best to monitor If he vomits, appears weak, unbalanced or experiences any other unusual symptoms, go to your vet asap.
