From what age can you give pups treats??

.......don't want to give them if they are going to upset his tum - he is only 8 weeks. He is on a dry complete food (if this helps??)

Thanks!

must admit, have got a bag of puppy commercial treats - unopened.

Cheese and chicken is a great idea, will these be ok at his age?

I would not give cheese to a puppy. but cooked chicken won't do any harm. I'd wait until he is a little older before giving other treats, Chicken as a reward is always a good idea.

Cheese upset Oscars tummy.

I just use pieces of his dry food for general training and stuff. He still goes mad for it.

He has had FLAT rawhide chews since he was about 10 weeks (not the round ones) and they seem ok.

Also following the Advice on here he has half a carrot too to help his teething which he really likes.

Yes he will be fine,just make sure it's cut into little chunks for him

We found the commercial ones would upset our dog's tum's and added to Meg's hyper fits

Dont focus on treats - your his pack leader focus on positive attention. This horrible reliance on unhealthy commercial treats only feeds the industry. İf you do use treats slow bake bread, liver. chicken, beef These are fantastic when teething.

My pup loves the liver cake they have at his training class.

Is there any special way of baking it ?

My pups are older now 10 months and 6 months and they love sausage as treats.


Archie is 12 weeks but I've not tried him with treats yet we only picked him up at the weekend so he is still settling in.
