How about fruit or vegetables instead? No grapes of course...
Banana, berries, green beans (no salt), lettuce, beill pepper, apple bits?
Jackson *hates* pretty much everything you just listed.... hahaha.

I wouldn't use Gummy Bears for treats. Like Ellie May said, I'm sure a few now and then wouldn't hurt them, but if you are training them, you typically end up using a lot of treats. I like Cheerios for something small, but I usually get Jackson the Zuke's Mini Naturals because they are small, soft and perfect for trick training -- low in calories and fat. You can get them at Petco. I also use real chicken and bits of cheese.
