Any suggestions? gracias Arriba Arriba!!!
Ha Ha, Joey is like that, I tried using cheese and he gets too excited to do the tricks.

I found a recipe I like, and it's good for them, fairly easy and Joey loves it. Just buy beef liver, you usually have to ask the butcher for it because it frozen in most stores. Walmart sell it frozen as well. It really cheap, about $1.00 a pound. Just boil the liver for about 25-30 to get the blood out. Cut in ¼ inch squares and place in 200-250 degree oven for about 2 hours until it's dehydrated. No salt, no fillers, nothing bad for them. I keep a months supply in the refrigerator and the rest frozen.

If you are using lots of treats for training purposes, lots of people here have suggested regular Cheerios, the unsweetened kind would be the best choice.
