Cheerios as a treat?????? I read on a thread today that someone gives their Furbaby Cheerios as a treat. OK I took the Cheerios out for the kids this morning, and gave one to Princess. She loved it! She's not a treat lover, but she really liked cheerios. My question is are they a good treat? hmmmmmmmmmm I guess I'm asking because I'm really not sure. What do you think? :thumbup: or :thumbdown |
Winston loves his Cheerios... it's a healthy snack. Just think we give Cheerios to babies once they start eating solid food. It doesn't have sugar or salt. |
Just talked to a friend, she said she's been giving her furbaby cheerios for years. I guess I should have thought of it sooner. I just found a new treat for Princess! See you really do learn something new on YT just about everyday! :D Thanks!!! |
Cheerios are a great treat!!! |
:( Mason cant have them.. :( |
Heidi gets her 3 cheerios every morning when my wife has hers, she loves them. S/W |
Mac & Mellie aren't into treats but love their Cheerios, Carrots and Cheese. Their favorite is "Stinky Provolone" that's only for a really special treat though. |
I use honey nut cheerios. Is that ok? |
Ours get them All three of ours get them every morning when my husband gets his....the vet told him they are a great healthy treat! |
I give mine these Strawberry yoqurt covered cherios. I love them too. |
Hmm, this is something I will have to try. I am having problems finding a treat that my little Kalena likes.... |
I cannot eat my Cheerios in the morning w/o sharing with them with Rocky. He goes nuts when I just bring out the box. I asked my vet if Cheerios were okay to give him, and he said that they are fine and are much better for them then dog treats. He advised that dog treats can be very fattening. |

Mine still likes cheerios. :) |
I've been giving KimMee cheerios for over a year. I hide them in socks and toys- keeps her busy - she actually brings me her sock to put them in-hehe I don't think there is anything wrong with them unless your pup would be allergic to wheat or oats |
I never thought about cheerios that would be a very cheap alternative to buying all of those expensive doggie treats!!! |
mine get honey nut cheerios and love them....it's funny to watch them both crunching away! |
Thanks all! I guess I found a new treat for Princess! Thanks to YT!!! I'll have to pick up some yogurt covered cheerios, and give them a try! :) :yorkietal |
My girls love Cheerios...they are their special treat!! And when we travel we use them for the girls so we don't have to carry dog treats around....they are so healthy for them!! |
I always liked the Honey Nut Cheerios because I thought that while Olivia was still young and tiny, they were a great way to "boost" up her sugar levels and help prevent a hypoglycemia. I also got so sick of buying treat after treat after treat that she either didn't like or that I had to break into smaller pieces during training so that she didn't get full and bored. I think Cheerios are the perfect size and they're light and not too filling. You can also get a store-brand or the malt-o-meal brand for so cheap and they last FOREVER, as opposed to many of the other training treats I found. |
Found this thread and got Livie some Cheerios....I have TRIED EVERY DOG TREAT there is. Looks like she is a Cheerio girl. |

I have given mine Cheerios for many years, as treats....they love them and they are good for them! Mine also like Fruit Loops....I only give mine human food for treats....tiny pieces of Vanilla Wafers or Graham Crackers.....those little Fish looking crackers.....human grade treats only around here! I am terrified of treats bought at pet shops and pet stores....too many incidents of recalls and dangerous additives to them. |

My breeder started giving Cheerios when teeth came in. Ruger is 11 months now and still gets them. I also mixed them w/honey nut ones. |
When I got Sophie the breeder said to give honey nut Cheerios as treats plus grind up a few in her food so her sugar wouldn't drop |
If your dog is healthy, their sugar shouldn't need help to stay up. Giving sugar only temporarily raises the sugar, then it takes a nose dive. Does the make of Fruit Loops no longer use artificial colors? I know a lot of food makers are finally using all natural colorings now. When I first saw the colored goldfish crackers I thought, Ew, who would ever give their kids these horrible things with bright artificial colors? But they actually use natural fruit colors. |
So pretty much all flavors of Cheerios are ok? Piper loves crunchy and she looks too, too cute chomping away, so I'd like to try Cheerios. Again, any restrictions on flavor? And (knowing my bottomless pit, chow hound of a girl) about how many in any given day? I'm excited to provide something new for Pipe! |
I use the Honey Nut Cheerios, and they only get MAYBE a total of 10 during the entire day....usually reward them 3-5 at a sitting, for any training....same thing with the little Goldfish Crackers for treats....Teddy Grahams, Fruit Loops, mine even enjoy those little crackers......Ritz Peanut Butter crackers, the ones only about the size of a dime......also Baked Original Oyster Crackers! I dont fret over artificial colors, as they dont get a steady diet of treats, and they have been getting thee items as snacks, treats, training rewards, etc. for soooooooooo many years with no issues. As far as using sugared cereal to keep pups sugar level up, I have never had issues with low blood sugar in any of my puppies or adults......but low blood sugar is NOT something that occurs as a normal thing with these dogs....hypoglycemia is not a normal symptom of all yorkies and should not be considered as normal..... and while it does occur in some puppies, it is not normal and your pup will not have hypoglycemic issues as a normally occurring event. |
