Puppies are one of life’s greatest joys. Those sweet furry faces, button noses, and wiggly bodies are just so cute and cuddly!
But you know what isn’t adorable?
Waking up to discover chewed shoes. Getting your fingers bitten by sharp teeth. Or cleaning up potty accidents on the floor. Yes, training a puppy takes time and effort. However, using the right puppy treats can actually speed up training and help your dog live a longer, happier, and healthier life!
That is why The Paw Grocer carries the best puppy training treats on the market.
We make learning basic obedience and life skills a breeze with our #1 puppy training treats.
What treats are best for training puppies?
So, what makes a good training treat?
A lot more goes into it than just a yummy taste. In fact, pooch parents may be surprised to discover that of the thousands of dog treats sold on pet store shelves, only some are truly healthy and “good” for your puppy to eat.
The dog nutrition experts here at The Paw Grocer make choosing the best training treats for a puppy easy.
Here are 3 qualities to look for:
- High-Value Puppy Treats for Rewarding Good Behavior
Your puppy is smart. He knows that nice things (like affection, verbal praise, playtime, and delicious treats) come when he displays proper behaviour. To keep him interested in training, feed low to medium-value treats alongside special and high-value treats.
These will be extra tasty and smelly!
For example, Salmon Belly with Fins.
- Single Ingredient Puppy Treats
Secondly, the best puppy training treats will be those with fewer ingredients. That means no unhealthy:
- Fillers
- Preservatives
- Grain
- Gluten
- Artificial Flavours
- Colour Additives
Don’t feed treats that have a long list of difficult to pronounce ingredients. Instead, keep it simple. The best puppy training treats will only list one ingredient, such as salmon, beef, lamb, chicken…that’s it!
According to bechewy, single ingredient treats are also excellent for allergy-prone dogs because they are less likely to trigger a reaction.
- Freeze-Dried Puppy Treats for Maximum Nutrition
Third, when shopping for the best dog training treats, also think about how these treats are made.
Why freeze-dried puppy treats?
Let’s face it…your puppy has tons of growing up to do! From learning how to sit, stay, come, drop it, walk on a leash, and so on, they will gobble down bag after bag of training treats. This can lead to unhealthy weight gain.
Luckily, freeze-dried dog treats are low in calories.
Using this method, moisture is removed from ingredients which are then frozen. A vacuum creates an airtight seal. Unlike oven baking (with heat that can destroy vital nutrients) freeze-dried treats protect antioxidants and vitamins.
The end result? Lightweight, long-lasting, healthy treats your puppy is guaranteed to love!
