| What treats do you use? I am limited on what I can get for supplies.I live in a small town and we only have a Wal-Mart about 30 miles away. I will order on line if I need to get the best for my new puppy. I have seen on this thread about what everyone uses for food, but what do you use for a treat? Most of the treats seem to be to big for my little girl! |

| Mine love baby carrots and cheerios. You can cut the carrots up into bite size pieces for her. If you're willing to order online, I highly recommend Yorkie Yummies. They're made by YT member Chattiesmom, they're very healthy and I've yet to hear of a yorkie who wasn't just crazy about them. They also last quite a while. Another thought is she'll need something to chew on. Don't give her rawhide - this can swell in the tummy and cause blockages. We love bully sticks and get ours from another YT member AMD. Her website is www.westbrookdog.com. Congratulations on your new baby!!

| I use pieces of people food for treats but Walmart carries some good ones. I think they carry Newman's Own and Three Dog Bakery which shouldn't be too bad.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Joey loves frozen green beans that I've thawed, and I also make some liver treats. Wal-Mart sells calf liver in the frozen section for only $1.00 for two slices. I boil this for 30 minutes, and let it cool, and cut up in little squares. I put these in an oven set for 185 degrees and bake for a couple hours, and they dehydrate. I keep a months supply in the refrigerator and the rest in the freezer. He really loves these, and you can make so many for just $1.00. There are also other recipes where you can put the liver in a food processor, and add eggs and whole-wheat floor, and make essentially a liver cookie that dogs love. Cheerios are another favorite of mine, especially when they are puppies and you are training them a lot. I also use Merrick Bully Sticks, but not as a treat, more as a bone substitute that helps keep their teeth clean, and fill their chewing need.

| Due to allergies with one of my girls, I only feed grain free treats, here is a list of the ones I buy. As far as jerkey type treats, I give mine Wellness Pure Rewards (Wellness Pure Rewards by Old Mother Hubbard), Ziwipeak (ZiwiPeak Good Dog Reward Treats), and Evanger's (Evanger's Jerky Treats) . I also buy Cheese Please, it 100% Wisconsin cheese that's been baked, my babies absolutely love them. Cheese Please 100% Natural Cheese Treats for Dogs For a crunchy treat, I give them Innova EVO baked treats, Innova EVO Baked Dog Treats And I also give them Solid Gold Petzyme, its dehydrated green tripe, this is very hard, so I wouldn't give it to a puppy, but as she gets older, its great. Petzyme Treat (dehydrated green tripe pieces) |

| All of my treats are already listed above, except for the Yogurt drops. I always split the yogurt drops. They are large & round and I don't want anyone choking on them. Already listed items: I also use Yorkie Yummies, *Chicken Jerky Tenders, *Chicken Jerky Bites (softer), Bully sticks, *the really tiny baby carrots, *Cheerios, and *cheese (just a small amount and not often). I put a * beside each item that I know Walmart sells. The Yogurt Drops are available at Petsmart. Yorkie Yummies are from Chattiesmom here on YT.
