| My girls are older, so we aren't high in training mode . We use them as part of our daily routine. They get liver treats (1 each) for coming inside after am potty (I got tired of going out in my jammies to get them back in the house ). They get dentastix (1 each) after lunchtime potty, then another small treat after last potty before bed. They have a good canned food for brkfst and good kibble for supper so I don't feel the need to give them more treats With a puppy, I would use treats as rewards only. Petco carries Wet Noses Organic lilltle stars which appear to be the perfect size for puppies What are you currently giving as treats (don't worry, you'll get no judgement from me ) what you give might determine how many and how often you give it.

| We give a lot of treats but he eats all his meals too. I make sure we only give healthy treats (most are healthy kibble but diff brand than his meals). We treat for every out door bathroom, car rides, and for going in his crate. We are working on trying different treats for come. He is 14 weeks so we are training a lot. |

| Chewie loves food--he gets lots of "treats" each day, but almost all of those are the same kibble he eats for his meals. He gets maybe two small pieces of "real" treat and a few bites of green bean or apple each day, and the rest is kibble.
