Dog Training Treats

No house treat carries the training tag, and the nearest from Sniff and Shift are its freeze dried cheddar bites and beef heart, which break into small pieces by hand.

Good training treats are small, quick to eat and low in crumbs, so the dog's attention stays on the lesson. Look at piece size on the listing, since mini bites and rounds are made for repetition. A two treat system works well: an everyday treat for easy repeats and a better one for harder jobs. Soft bites tear into several rewards, and crunchy ones keep a pocket clean. Young dogs have their own picks in puppy treats.
