i have to dissagree about milkbones being healthy. at one time i would have agreed, but now i know better. corn and wheat (any grain for that matter) are bad for dogs.

any fresh fruit or vegatable would be a healthy treat. both of mine love bananas. most dogs that i've met love green beans. and raw scraps of meat are wonderful too. (as long as you would cook it up for yourself too, it is fine.)

i found an expensive dog food called Pet Botanics. it doesn't seem too bad. (compared to the natural/barf diet. i compare everything to that. to me mostly everything else is junk.) King loves it. since i can't afford to feed that or the natural diet to him, he gets those types of things for treats. Pet Botanics comes in a plastic wrapper and can be chopped up for treats. it sort of is like a sausage texture but alot dryer. so far i've only found it at Petsmart.

p.s. dogs get the most nutrition out of vegatables if they are finely chopped or mince, rather than whole.
