There's nothing better than cooling off with a refreshingly icy popsicle in the summer and with the Doggie Cone, your pets can enjoy a frozen dog treat of their very own.
On a hot summer day, the word "frozen" seems to imply that there will be dripping and messes, but the inventive design of the Doggie Cone prevents spills. Much like a popsicle mold, the Doggie Cone can be filled up with water, treats and flavorings, and then popped into the freezer to set. The shape of the Doggie Cone is optimized for stacking, which is ideal if you have more than one pooch, or just want to be prepared for the next time. The Doggie Cone comes in two sizes, one for small dogs and another for larger ones.
As of now, Doggie Cone is crowdfunding on Kickstarter, aiming to raise $18,500. A donation of $17 will get you one of the Mini-sized Doggie Cones, plus a recipe booklet.
