Best treats for dog training...

My clients are always asking me for recommendations of the best dog treats to use for training. The answer is dependent on a few different factors but typically, if the thing you are trying to teach your dog is new, needs improvement or is a little challenging, commercial dog treats don't cut it. I like to stick to human food like hot dogs, string cheese, vienna sausages, cheddar cheese, boiled chicken and occasionally tuna fish. The goal is to motivate your dog to learn the new behavior and then repeat the desired behavior. The easiest way to get there is through the use of really yummy food. Need more info on when and how to use these treats? Contact us to schedule a session.
