If you are a dog owner, you'll know the sheer will power it takes not to share your scrumptious tub of ice cream with your furry friend, despite them showing you their sad 'puppy dog eyes'.

Well, the guys over at Ben & Jerry's have only gone and created dog-friendly ice cream!

Coming in a number of different flavours including 'Rosie's Batch' and 'Pontch's Mix', the dog ice cream is perfect for you pooch, with customers having the choice between single mini cups or a multipack box.

Rosie's Batch consists of 'frozen dog treat with pumpkin and mini cookies', whilst Pontch's Mix is described as 'frozen dog treat with peanut butter and pretzel swirls'.

Of course if you are wondering if this product is safe for your dogs, with usual advice saying they shouldn't consume much dairy, don't panic! Ben & Jerry's have created these treats with only a small amount of dairy, instead they are made with with sunflower butter!

It seems dog owners on Instagram were over the moon with Ben & Jerry's latest release, with many commenting. One user wrote, 'That is Absolutely ADORABLE 👏👏👏', with another adding, 'Doggos can enjoy treats just like us, I love it!'. (sic)

Another commented, 'Ok that’s incredible. My doggo’s birthday is in a couple months.... he’s gonna be in for a treat. 🥰'. (sic)

Annoyingly, Ben & Jerry's for dogs only seems to be available in the US right now, but we are hoping it rolls out across the pond VERY soon! 🙏

Of course, there are a load of other dog-friendly ice creams currently on the UK market, including Scoop's for Dogs and Cool Dog.
