    training treats *>poll<*

    Which treats does your dog prefer for training?
    My aunt's dog Elsa will literally jump in the air just for a small chile and lime flavoured potato chip!!!
    sorry about the grape thing. Nino likes to roll them around and eventually squwish them. I'll stop with the grapes.

    I chose Authority/Biljac. Gonzo actually gets pieces of Red Barn for training

    Hotdogs and cheese works well, but I'm disturbed by the "grape" part.. lol.. yes, grapes are a no-no for doggies. That includes raisins.

    I use a bit of everything when we're training. I like to mix in their favorite stuff to keep them guessing. Sometimes I use hotdogs, cheese, freeze dried liver, baked liver treats, old mother hubbard treats, cheerios and if we have any suitable leftovers, they get some of that too.

    Timber doesn't care lol. I'll usually just use her kibble, or I'll break pieces off her dog biscuits, or use cereal.
    I've been BOO'd!

    I generally use a tennis ball while training my 9 month old, Kiara.
    She LOVES tennis balls and will do anything for them. (Ask anyone who's met her on here. )

    Simba and Nala get small pieces of kibble or soft treats.

    For their photoshoots, they get small pieces of whatever meat we have in the fridge (last time it was ham) - and sometimes cheese.

    Tango doesn't care a whole lot for treats usually so I use her Tennis ball. She responds much quicker and has a lot more fun

    Echo will eat anything, I sometimes jsut use kibbles, cereal or I break off pieces of a milkbone for her

    Tia won't do anything unless I have her favourite chewy chicken treats made my milkbone lol. She doesn't like much of anything except those
