What are good snacks/treats for pups?

[whispersmom2]

Don't let my babies read this thread. They get Iams daily dental dog food as treats. I do not feed it as their diet so they love it. Just have to remember to take it out of your pockets when you do laundry. They do make a mess on the other clothes in the load..

They come in a can with a plastic cover for after you've opened it. They are little drops that look like white chocolate chips. They also have vitamins in them. I usually buy the vanilla ones, and they smell so good that I've often thought of trying them myself!!

Mine all LOVE them and Cheerios, too. They aren't real big on veggies, though...

After waaaaaaaay to much of the "good stuff" ... poor Toto is on a diet and her treats nowadays are Special K! She loves a Special K flake as much as she used to love Yogurt Drops!! Crunch, crunch!!

I make liver treats, they are so very tiny that you can give lots and lots and they will NOT interfer with reggular meals. You can fit about 7 on a dime. I will gladly send you a sample if you are interested.

Cheerios, and fruit loops also make good treats, but I am so stingy and worry so much about treats interferring with meals, I cut cheerios in half!!!! My dogs think I am very stingy! but they do eat their meals.

If I remember correctly, some of the people here on YorkieTalk have tried the yogurt drops personally. I dont think I will be that daring

Dang... I really wanted to treat her with cheerios, and she liked them so much. But then she began itching, and cheerios was the only new diet item. Sure enough, when I cut them, she stopped itching. Darn!!

She gets lamb & rice training bites.

Our girls are at the senior age so they are watching their waistline.

They have little treats of peas, green beans, diced carrots mostly.
They love them and eat their regular meals too.

Good healthy eating habits into their senior years, like their Mom & Dad.
Now if I can only teach them to walk the treadmill a little bit each day !

Mason is allergic to Wheat and grains so he gets Solid gold Lamb lung treats and for a BIG treat he gets a Organic marrow bone like the Big Soup bones. He eats the marrow out of it and we toss it once he is done.

Don't feel badly about the size of their Cheerios!! When Toto used to get Honeycomb, we broke them into 4 tiny pieces!! She was so small, our vet said she could have only about 6 whole pieces a day ... we just stretched her portion a little!! BTW .... I have a great little cookbook titled "Barker's Grub" and it has some great, healthy receipes in it!

Shanatink ... my Patrick always tastes Toto's food!! Yep, we both tried the Yogurt Treats [after reading the ingredients] and they are delicious!!

You can always break the milk bones or other hard style treats into little pieces.
