Yesterday I met with my trainer for the first time, and she suggested I have a treat baggie on me at all times, with a mix of stuff in it. (broke up small ofcourse for Harley).

She said to put some kibble in it, but every time I'd haul out the kibble he wouldn't touch it. (He's on Now!)

So this morning I soaked his kibble for 10 seconds in some water to soften it up and break it into smaller pieces... is this ok? Will it ruin the nutrients in the food. I just want to assure that I'm giving him kibble in his treat bags so that he's getting some of his daily food an not just "big macs" lol. Also would soaking it in a chicken broth make it tastier/healthier than just water?

Thanks
