What type of treats do all of you feed your dogs

Rascal and Ellie both absolutely LOVE Beggin' Strips and Beggin' Wraps. They also like Scooby Milkbone Treats, and Milkbones.

My girls love chicken strips, beggin strips, lammy wammys, and liva-snaps. I forgot frosty paws.

Well, Cody (my old boy) is on a restricted diet so he only gets duck. I just found some duck breast jerkey from Dogswell Happy Hips. He loves it!

I feed Bailey all kinds of treats, but I stay away from heavy preservatives. He gets Buddy Biscuits and Paul Newman treats. He really loves a bite of banana every morning and then he shares a salad with me every afternoon. While I'm making my salad, he gets a couple pieces of broccoli, carrots, pea pods, and he will even eat a tomato. I think he's pretty healthy!

My boys get a huge variety of treats! We have to try all the treats with human quality ingredients at least once. Kai's favorite (commercial) treats are freeze dried liver and Marrobone (Kaedyn doesn't have a favorite

). I bought a 20 dollar tub of the liver which has lasted us forever! The Marrobone, I hate to admit, isn't even close to the quality of their other treats.. but Kai loves them so much that he still gets the odd one here and there (2 a month.. max!) I mainly use it for when he shows outstanding recall, or when we're desensitizing outside. They also get rollover for agility and obedience training. I'm about to switch over to Natural Balance after we finish this last bit.. as NB is much better, ingredient-wise.

They get cut up bits of cheese for agility training, as well as recall and newer commands. Cheese is the only reward Kai will really work his butt off for in agility.

I give the pack bacon strips. But they rarely get them. I break them into small bites and give that way for bedtime, or being particularly good

I use cooked hamburger for training. I can break that down into small pieces without worrying about overfeeding or upsetting their tummies too much.

For training, they get a mixture of cheese, Redbarn/Natural Balance soft rolls, or hotdog, minced up in cubes. They l o v e all of these, but I keep the cheese & hotdog in moderation because it's pretty fattening.

At home, they get dehydrated chicken breast, OMH mint or peanut butter biscuits, Charlee bear treats, home-made liver or peanut butter treats, home-made fruit & yogurt frosty paws, etc! Fozzie gets a Kong stuffed & frozen with muscle meats & pureed veggies & egg & other good stuff almost every day.

=D for chewing, they of course get a big variety of RMB's every day - today they each got pork ribs, and for dinner they each split a turkey breast w/ bone, which provides lots of chewing. I wouldn't consider what they eat everyday a "treat". Around the house through out the day Fozzie has access to a few bully stix, a bunch of dried cow tails, and occasionally lamb & pig ears.

I wonder why so many people have problems with feeding pork? Crazy. My 2 have zero side affects, even from eating lots of pork in one day. I rarely feed a bunch of pork muscle meat... maybe that's it? I usually feed pork ribs, femur, or shoulder with bone-in, and sometimes feet.

I have freeze dried liver treats right now..my aunt makes her own dog treats (peanut butter, beef and chicken flavor) for her dogs, and of course Gunther and Sammy dont mind sharing with my 2, so i always have a big baggie of those around

**GreyhoundGirl** · 08-08-2006, 09:32 PM

Jen loves her Chew-ezz ! She can't go a day without them.

**luvofallhorses** · 08-08-2006, 09:33 PM

pig ears, scooby snacks, canine carry outs, and milkbones

**managemysite** · 08-09-2006, 01:22 PM

Beautiful Dog... Um I usually buy anything thats not rawhide... But mine loves all the big chewy bones.. Like
Busy Bone chew or dental bone.. , Waggin Train Brand ( Porkhide Twists or Chicken Strips ) High in protein Low Fat ...
Purina has a new one out its called Beggin Chew ( I gave that to my boy today he loved it.. ) He also loves the
chew-lotta bone Meaty Bone Brand ....
But it's mainly up to you and what you want to feed and give your dog... Good Luck

His favorites are Authority and Bil-Jac and AKC brands liver treats, but he loves pretty much any soft treat too. Especially cheese flavored and liver. He loves marrow pig bones and those little rawhide twists too. He won't eat hard biscuit type treats and sometimes he just randomly decides one breand isn't good enough for him so I usually stick to his 3 favorites.

For training I use a huge mixture of soft treats. I swear the surprise factor is great when training -- with each praise, she never knows what she's gonna get.

I try to stay as healthy as possible and I always chop the treats into as tiny pieces as I can.

Cheese, Bone Appetit training treats, Natural Balance rolls, Rollover, Buddy's Jerky, NRG Dehydrated chicken or salmon, and basically any treat with okay ingredients. Alot of the time I include pieces of my own food.

For things other than training, there are hard biscuits which Visa doesn't really enjoy much but will occasionally eat anyways. Right now we have Natural Balance Duck & Potato (no grains). We usually have bully sticks. I'm always trying different chews to see which ones she likes best. We usually have something on hand.
