Puppy treats

Anyone have any really good ideas for cheap tasty puppy treats that they will die for ??? (10 weeks old)

Everything you look at seems to be 3 months onwards, coachies are expensive and I'm feeling tight

They love cat biscuits as a training treat!

what them little funny shaped things you get from morrisons (my Mrs calls them munchies)

Whatever works Xx

Can you use dried liver? That is what we use for Buster and it's cheap to buy, but I dont know if they have to be over a cerain age?

I think that can be a little rich for their tummies at that age

I knew these were here Kathy but nothing to really say what's suitable for pups so I thought I'd call on everyone's experience

These are OK for 8 weeks and over:

yer the coachies are what I saw in PAH and thought they expensive (in my opening post) Sorry Kathy you must just think I'm being picky tonight

More than anything I thought there must be a few members with some good tips as I don't recall reading a thread about this before so it may be good for the forum

I do have a raw diet, but not solely raw i do eat some 'normal' food

So you're not a bloodthirsty beast all of the time then

Not all the time just some of the time!

Haha be warned Dave

In all seriousness though haha! chicken wings would be a great treat for a pup of his age, especially to help with teething you could give it frozen to help sooth his gums

My OH wouldn't let me give him raw and I've got to do as I'm told Well until I put her under the patio but I can't get the sand delivered until next week ...lol

Tut under the thumb are we

Just get her told! they will be the healthiest treats you can give him!

Otherwise you could try stag bars for him to chew on

Who me no , never , honest !!! are Stag bars ok for pups then ?? read a lot , it's like I've been in a timewarp and everyone seems to have started talking about them in the last 2 or 3 weeks

yer yer

Yes they will be fine as long as you get an appropriate sized one as they can't chew huge bits off but will keep them busy

Stag bars and bully sticks/pizzle sticks and stuffed frozen Kongs are great as a treat for them to settle down with.

For training treats, I wouldn't touch the likes of coachies and similar, they're full of *.

Dried liver (you can even make it yourself, just chop up and dry in the oven on a low temp for a few hours - it does stink though but cheap!), tiny bits of cheese, small bits of cooked chicken (you can boil a few breasts or whatever, chop up into little pieces then freeze the excess to use at a later date), buy some good quality kibble to use as treats like Fish4Dogs small bite, Orijen etc or maybe even a few packs of Ziwipeak (dried raw) or bake some healthy treats yourself like liver cake

We've always just used vegetables either dehydrated, frozen or fresh
