You can also do veggies for treats, small bites of carrots, green beans or even frozen peas! My brothers dog can’t really have dog treats- so they feed her frozen peas and she just loves them!! If you are going to use dog treats just look for the healthier ones- the ones with better ingredients- You can also do tiny pieces of boiled skinless chicken breast. Use tiny pieces in whatever you use- so he thinks he is getting more when he really isn’t.
Out of nowhere Peanut was deathly scared of an extension cord- so a couple training sessions and he was good to go- Now he will walk over them and not hide and shake in a corner when one is out!! |
Huey loves baby carrots and green beans. We also have used training treats from petsmart and now that I make sure everything is made in the US, I cut up bigger treats into tiny pieces. As long as he can get a taste, it works.
Your comment about Peanut and extention cords made me laugh. I have so many friends who have had to replace multiple chewed up computer and phone chargers, extention cords, phone lines...tbe list goes on. They are jealous of me because Huey avoids cords like the plague. He doesn't act necessarily scared of them, but he really doesn't want to touch them, either. It is funny when he has the zoomies and runs circles around the living area...he jumps up on the sofa and runs accross it to avoid the computer and phone cords that are on the floor. When he can't go around them, he either jumps over them or ducks and runs under them. It is funny to watch when he is trying to keep his speed up!
