Talk to me about treats please!
My 10.5 week old puppy seems quite particular about treats. She will eat a new type for a day or two and then go off them. She now refuses the one calorie kibble type snacks I bought a pack off, the fancy dried cod rolls, and the other expensive pack of treats I bought her. She does like the dried chicken swivel sticks but she can only have one of those a day so I don't use that for training. I've changed to using some of her dried normal food for training and giving it to by hand, and giving less in her bowl at mealtime. She went berserk when DH cooked a roast chicken the other week and she really enjoyed having slivers of the meat. There was a bowl of leftovers from that in the fridge which I was taking bits from for treats for DartyPup, but then DH went and ate it
We need to practice walking to heel and I'd like an easy-to-give treat to reward this. Her food is a bit too small and fiddly to give to her easily while walking. Any recommendations? I've seen dried sprats suggested on this board - haven't come across them yet but I'll look out for them.
Also, what do you consider 'high value' treats as opposed to every day treats?
