(The robin inside the glass had a large open doorway behind it to get out through.)
Also I feel this is missing the point of ice cream, for dogs or otherwise. Itās not supposed to be healthy.

Grandma used to buy a āMilky Wayā for our Jack Russell, as a treat once a week.
I must point out that this was at least 50 years ago , & that there was/is unlikely to be much actual chocolate involvedā¦

Perception certainly seems to have shifted from āa little bit now and then does no harmā to āone whiff of the Demon Theobromine and your beloved family pet will ASPLODEā. No idea whether it was led by science or driven by the sellers of dog-safe pseudochocolate.

Has anyone ever tried telling a dog that any sausage whatever was not suitable for dogs? Did they succeed?

And someone ought to have told our Dalmatian that chocolate was poisonous before he ate all the three siblingsā Christmas presents of a box of Black Magic each.

As opposed to the vast majority of chocolate sold in the UK as 'human-compatible '?
Ankh-Morpork people, said the guild, were hearty, no-nonsense fold who did not want chocolate that was stuffed with cocoa liquor and were certainly not like effete la-di-dah foreigners who wanted cream in everything. In fact, they actually preferred chocolate made mostly from milk, sugar, suet, hooves, lips, miscellaneous squeezings, rat droppings, plaster, flies, tallow, bits of tree, hair, lint, spiders, and powdered cocoa husks. This meant that, according to the food standards of the great chocolate centers in Borogravia and Quirm, Ankh-Morpork chocolate was formally classed as ācheeseā and only escaped, through being the wrong color, being defined as ātile grout.ā
