# Bobbing for Ice

I've started adding ice to Jake's water.  Too funny.  He bobs for the ice and usually gets a piece before it melts.

I'll have to give that a try. I'd imagine the pissed off reaction is hilarious!

Nemo bobs once or twice and then starts thrashing with his paw.  It kind of gets water all over.

does 'the whizz' dig in the water like our cairn friend does?? we have to make sure there are no cubes in the water bowls here because Eva the cairn digs and digs and digs in the water.. it gets everywhere.. tsuki will chase a cube if its on the floor but not in the bowl.

Jake loves this new challenge.  We usually put the bowl outside on the porch so he can bob til his heart's content.

I give the girls ice as treats.  They love it.  They ignore the ice in their water.

Whiz does not dig in the water bowl, he does how ever try to walk through every puddle and mudhole that he possibly can.

Jazz ignores the ice as well

My babies love ice treats too. They lick ice in their bowl, cuz usually we give them huge chunks that need to be cleaned out of the tray. Gotta try the ice bobbing...sounds like fun.
