Mom orders “wrong flavor” snow cone for dog and she stubbornly refuses to eat it

Dogs can be a finicky bunch, especially when it comes to their food. Creatures of habit, some dogs can get used to certain types of foods and flavors. For these dogs, nothing else will do. This was the case with a dog named Lola, who took offense to her mom’s slight in a hilarious way.

Treats for dogs come in a variety of sizes and flavors. A favorite among some dogs are snow cones, specially flavored to make them delicious for dogs to eat. For Lola, it was a special treat whenever her mom would take her to get a snow cone from her favorite place.

Lola started at a local shelter. As with many dogs, she was spayed when she was brought in. Unfortunately, she had some complications with her procedure and couldn’t walk. Taken in by Big Hearts for Big Dogs, Lola was soon placed into a foster home to recover and get ready for adoption.

The family fostered Lola for two years, taking her to weekly physical therapy sessions.

Eventually, though, her foster family decided to adopt her. They had grown to love her and her wacky ways and couldn’t bear to be parted from her.

Living with her family on their farm, Lola gets to hang out with other animals, each with rescue stories of their own. It was her weird ways that endeared her to her family and they wouldn’t trade her for the world.

“We have had her for six years, but she’s been ‘ours’ for four,” Lola’s mom, Annie Belanger Burley, told The Dodo. “We have no clue how old she is, but she literally doesn’t age. She has the most amazing temperament, but she’s a total weirdo!”

One of Lola’s favorite things to do is go for a snow cone at Pelican Snowballs in nearby North Fort Myers.

“We go to Pelican Snowballs in North Fort Myers a few times a month,” Burley said. “Her favorite flavor is chicken broth served with a Milk-Bone on top … When she gets excited, it’s usually with her eyes. She has grumpy face the majority of the time.”

A mistake is made

Burley recounts one time when she was getting Lola a snow cone, she decided to get her a plain snow cone. This was because Lola had been suffering from an upset stomach and she didn’t want her to overdo it.

She figured Lola would be okay with the change, not knowing the attitude she was about to unleash.

Instead of eating the snow cone like she usually did, Lola simply sat there, giving her mom the side-eye. From the look on Lola’s face, it was clear that Burley had made a mistake and that Lola didn’t intend to eat the snow cone.

Instead, Lola laid down in the seat and let the snow cone melt instead. Hopefully, Lola wasn’t too upset, and that she realizes her mom loves her, even if she did make a mistake.

Surely, there will be other snow cones in the future, as long as they are the flavor she wants.
