I trained my dog to sit on rice krispy treats. They do have a lot of sugar so try not to give him too much also some simple peanut butter does the trick. If you want to go to a store and buy a brand of treats the little canine carryouts. they are cheap and he loves them.

Your dog have been an angel? Treats will be good for rewards and there are some suggestions I will provide....

Ideally, the training treat should be very small, so that you can give the dog a large number of rewards without filling him up or adversely impacting his diet.

1. Dry dog biscuits are not the most wonderful of dog treats.

Ideally, the training treat should be very small, so that you can give the dog a large number of rewards without filling him up or adversely impacting his diet.

So, what is the best food reward? My personal vote is for raw hot dogs and bologna. Most dogs adore them above all else, they're soft, inexpensive, and can be chopped into small bits. Bologna is especially easy to prepare; it's already sliced, so all you have to do is crosscut it into small squares right in the package.
Cons: they're slimy and if you're a health nut, you won't like what's on the ingredient list.

Next on my favorites list is cheese. Most dogs like it, and like bologna, it's easily chopped. It's not as slimy and you can choose different types (string, cheddar, American, etc.). It's also health-nut approved. For the ultimate in convenience, try cheese in a spray can.... squirt it directly in the dog's mouth, with no handling required. Cons: more expensive, not quite as tasty.

Then comes cooked chicken and turkey. Dogs love it, sometimes even very finicky eaters. Also, it's a good treat for dogs with certain allergies (check with your vet). Cons: longer preparation time, slimy, more difficult to chop into bits, sometimes expensive.


These are only a few suggestions. Anything reasonably healthy that the dog likes can be used.

Safety note: Chocolate is poisonous to dogs and can be fatal. Do not feed your dog anything that has cooked bones or bone fragments in it.

If you are training it is best to use something small, soft, and quickly eaten, so that you can continue training without having to wait for the dog to eat the reward. Around the house treats that are good would be, hot dogs cut into slices then into quarters, fruit cut into small slices then into quarters, and the best thing for dogs is some kind of soft dog treat, for training Good luck.

You'll have to figure out for yourself-just try different sorts of vegetable and fruit sliced into small cubes and see what your dog likes best. Hot-dogs are mine favorite treats but I used them as big reward so the dog know that are special treat.

Are you asking about treats for a dog? If so, try miniature carrots! My dogs love them, and there are not too many calories in them. A small piece of bacon or beef jerky is great, too.

carrots, popcorn, and plain rice cakes (they make good edible frisbees) are some easy ideas. Also you can make your own dog treats by searching recipes on the internet. People say people food is bad for dogs but it's not unless it's onions, chocolate, or garlic.

A bit of bread will do just fine. Peanut butter too. But do not give a dog a complete spoonful of peanut butter daily. It will most likey hurt them. Only give them a little bit.

For dogs small slice of ham but do not overdo because of the high salt content

Pup-peronis are good. My dogs love them. Also, you can get Beggin Strips, chicken jerky, and rawhide bones. All of these are good for the dogs.
