A Cute Little Pug Dog With a Very Long Tongue Carefully Licks at a Yummy Popsicle

An absolutely adorable little pug with an oversized tongue and big brown eyes carefully licked at a multi-colored, multi-flavored popsicle that his human held out for him to enjoy. It's been suggested that dogs with hanging tongue syndrome lick at frozen goodies to keep the tongue moisturized, so this human is doing a very good thing for her pup.

Encourage your dog to lick ice cubes or frozen dog treats. (Hint: You can also freeze leftover chicken broth and other non-salted liquids in ice cube trays for your dog to enjoy later!)
