Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach today to determine if you can feed your dog matcha ice cream. Dogs may indulge in small amounts of some flavors of ice cream on special occasions. However, matcha ice cream along with mocha, coffee and green tea ice creams should be avoided due to the caffeine content, which can be toxic to dogs.
