Dogs eating ice cream: The perfect way to celebrate National Ice Cream Day!
Dogs and their owners were invited to a Studio City pet store to enjoy National Ice Cream Day with some specially-formulated frozen treats.

Sunday is National Ice Cream Day, and we have the scoop on the best deals and steals!

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation designating July as "National Ice Cream Month" and the third Sunday of the month as "National Ice Cream Day."

The proclamation called for Americans to celebrate with "appropriate ceremonies and activities," and the makers of your favorite frozen treats are making that easy with plenty of discounts and freebies.
