| Hi! There are so many out there, you have to find one he/she likes. I would pick up a Nylabone, because they really love them. (Princess likes the clear ones)

| Highly recommend Natural Balance Meat roll. (you can get a 99 cent size at Petco) Great stuff. Use a tiny piece as a treat or mix with dry food to get picky eater to eat! They only eat very small portions of food so be careful not to fill the baby up with a big treat. Some treats are the size of their meals! |

| I have Eukanuba Healthy Extra's (puppy biscuits/growth), pupperoni sticks (for obedience training), little greenies. I recently (at 6 months) started giving her the 'dingo bones', rawhide with meat inside. |

| Mine like "People Crackers" which they get occasionally. Most of the time they get home made tiny liver treats. |

| Tigger likes cottage cheese, but he gets it rarely. I don't recommend rawhide or pig ears. because they can break off in chunks and get stuck in your dogs throat. also Natural bones are not a good idea either, as they can splinter and also get lodged in the throat. also they stain. If you would like to give your dogs pig ears, they make imitation pig ears that are flavored. You can also give them corn starch velvet chews made by booda. They come in flavors and will not break off in large chunks nor will they splinter. They sort of crumble as they chew on it, into their mouths. Tigger seems to like the bacon one. I just got him his first Sunday. Milkbones are good, and Bil jac liver treats are good. It really is based on how sensitive your dogs stomach is. |

Off the subject, but cattiesmom what coloration is your yorkie in your picture? Tiggers colors are sort of coming in like your babies. he's four months old, and on top of his head silver is coming in, with his orange going a little lighter on his muzzle, his body has stayed black and legs orange, but his head has a silver stripe developing. | |

| Greenies-petstore they love these, but you have to watch them, pupcorn-walmart for pottying in the right spot, and a small soft treat that you can train him to do tricks with, (sit, laydown, stay, etc.)

| Mac and Mellie like greenies, scooby snacks, and real cheese (yellow american) for a special treat. They also love the liitle raw carrots. I cut them in half though.

| My Lexi loves the pup peroni sticks. We just pinch off a tiny amount. They smell good enough for us to eat! She will do just about anything for some. |

| Yorkie treats Okay, now I am confused. When I was researching here before I brought Ceeby home, I thought there was a thread or a post about NOT giving treats that can break off and choke them. SOOOOOOOOO, I looked at all the things you guys are mentioning today and thought they would all be dangerous to give him. However I did buy some Nylabones yesterday but it says on the package that they will splinter. |

| yorkie treats the package says "Durable". I wasn't aware there are other kinds. Guess I should have gotten the edible ones. He loves both the chicken and liver flavored ones. He hasn't made any splinters. Guess he is too little for that but my pug has made a few on hers. |

| Samson likes the mini Dingo Bones with the red meat rolled up in the bone, the petite greenies, puppy Eukanuba treats, green peppers (yes green peppers), and these things...I don't remember the name but they are like these rawhide twist things with a slim jim type thing in the middle. They're a little big for him so they last a few days but he really likes them. Now his absolute favorite are these chicken treats that are like dehydrated chicken or like chicken jerky. I ordered them from a website that was mentioned on here for having information on hotels that you can stay in with pets. If you're really interested I can check at home for the website name, right now I'm drawing a blank. I don't remember the brand name of the treats either but I never saw them in any stores. The only ingredients are chicken and flavoring so I figure they should be o.k. for him. The best part is that on this website they were on sale/clearance for really cheap, something like $2.50 a bag. I also ordered some pretty nice toys that were on sale. The shipping was kinda high but since the items were so cheap I think I still made out getting a good deal. |
