Whats most important is to know your dog, choosing the appropriate treats for both their size and temperament. Treats can prove invaluable in rewarding positive behavior and in reinforcing behavior learned during training. They're also a fun, inexpensive way to show your dog you love him. When choosing a treat, be sure to consider: Intended use - if you plan to use treats during training, smaller treats are a good choice. They're quickly consumed and provide minimal distraction from training tasks. Frequency - if you plan to treat your dog often, consider smaller, lower-calorie treats which will help him stay slim. Age & Health - puppies often prefer smaller treats, and seniors with sensitive teeth often prefer soft treats. Dogs with food sensitivities/allergies can benefit from hypoallergenic treats. Pooches preferences - treats are available in several different shapes, sizes, and flavors sure to fit your dog's unique tastes. |
