What Treats Do You Use For Training?

[sheena]

Hi All,

For those of you who use food treats during training sessions, what do you use?

Up until now I have been using cheese and frankfurters cut up really small, or carob reward drops, or sometimes those Nature's gift "trainers" which I cut up into 3s.

What do you use?

I always had trouble trying to get my dog motivated with treats until I started making my own. If you are interested I will come back later with the full receipe, but basically it consists of ground beef liver, garlic, parmesan cheese & corn meal, all made into a batter & laid thinly in trays & cooked. Then cut up into small bits & stored in the freezer. Bindi would do headstands for it & it lasts for months.

There is no way I would use VIP roll as a training treat, my dogs aren't high food drive dogs so I know that would not cut it for them.

I am not knocking VIP rolls as I think it is a great product, I just know my dogs would be very disappointed if that was the reward....lol.
