I give my babies (6 months and up) chicken chips that they sell at PS. It's 100% dried chicken and they love it. Perfect size also. For the the little babies under 3-6 months, I give them Nature's Recipe.... they are soft and chewy and because they are so small and I don't have to worry about filling up their tiny, sweet bellies. For the teeny babies 6 weeks to 3 months I break the Nature's Recipe in half and only give them a treat twice a day or so. They definitely have more ingredients so I don't give them as many as I do the older furbabies. But I like to give them some sort of treat that is tiny and tasty for potty training. And it works because the newest members of our family Harley and Sophie, when they are fixing to go potty on the paper, they look up at us to make sure we are watching that they are using the paper so they'll get a treat. It only took us one week to potty train each one of our four puppies with the treats. If anyone knows of another tiny treat to give the younger ones, feel free to share. I'd like to give them something as tiny as these but more nutritious like the chicken chips. I like the cheerios idea though. I've stayed away from the fruits and vegetables on the 14 week olds because they EACH are using the bathroom (#2) five times a day. Not sure if that's normal or not. Any thoughts if it is? My two older ones just went #2 twice a day. |
