Yes, real boiled chicken. I went to puppy class and the trainer said to use real meat because store bought treats are generally not as healthy. She said she buys what's on sale at the store, cooks and cuts it up into tiny pieces and I mean tiny pieces. Only take it out when you want the pup to do what you want the pup to do. Use it only during training. You could even freeze some and use it later. I've heard that if you start cooking real food for a Yorkie they'll hold out but after taking the puppy class the trainer said it's just foolish not to use meat because it's so effective. I can tell you that my Jonah was a runner but when he runs I always have something for him to come back to and he does! If I don't have a piece of meat in my hand when it's time to come in he literally waits at the door until I get something before he'll come in...Funny and so cute!!
