Puppy Treats! (Good for training your new puppy)

We were recently asked what kind of treats that we recommend for training treats. So we are putting together a little post here about what we like to use with our puppies.​​ For training we recommend only soft treats. Crunchy treats leave a mess and are too hard to chew during training sessions. Here are some of our favorites:

• My favorite on the list is the meat rolls from Happy Howies. We have used the turkey, lamb and beef and just love these for our dogs to train with. We usually end up getting a larger roll and cutting them up into bite sized pieces and freezing them until needed. These rolls are great but don't have preservatives so they need to be refrigerated once opened (up to a week) or frozen. Chewy.com and Amazon also sell these rolls and some times are cheaper than the actual Happy Howie website. https://www.happyhowies.com/product-category/premium-meat-rolls/
• We also use Zuke's mini all natural training treats. We love the rabbit and duck, because they give your puppy some thing a little different flavor wise for training. Petsmart, Petco, Amazon, Chewy.com all sell these treats as well. www.zukes.com/dog-treats/training/mini-naturals-rabbit-recipe
• Another training treat that we like to use is Wellness Soft Puppy Bites. They have other formulations of the soft treats for adult dogs as well. Chewy and other major pet retailers carry these as well. We don't recommend the crunchy for training purposes. www.wellnesspetfood.com/natural-dog-food/snacks
