What dog treats do we feed and best buys :)

Hello,

Just looking to find out what dog treats we all feeds our dogs and best buys and where to buy from etc. I would also like to know the best reasons for giving them a treat and what is just being too kind and giving in to their little sad face when i come out the cupboard without snack for them haha

Thanks Peeps

Re: What dog treats do we feed and best buys :)

At the moment mine are just having biscuit-y things that my parents bought them for xmas...they very rarely get treats to be honest.

Once the biscuits are gone they will be back on their more natural treats, paddywack and tripe sticks, which I will be ordering from DAF when my raw delivery is due

Ollie gets treats for training, and also a treat after dinner. I'm changing over to Cereal Free treats because I feel this is healthier for him.

For his training treats, I'm mixing Burns kibble (just using it up, and then will change to a cereal free kibble), Wainwrights Freeze Dried Duck and Chicken, and Wainwrights Cereal Free Biscuits.

For his treat after dinner, he has been having Pedigree Bonios, but we are changing him over to a low cereal alternative: Beef Sticks.

Re: What dog treats do we feed and best buys :)

My two love tripe sticks but my other half cant stand the smell of them so they only get it if im out a walk and pick a small bag up on route lol am I correct im saying natural treats are the best and to stay away from any with colours or commercial packaging i.e bakers etc? I like to feed them raw hide when i can but only Farmfoods brand of Hollings as I herd the cheap stuff is bleached white and water added to bulk it up hence the puffy look they have and very light in weight.

Does anyone know goods places to buy in bulk say full boxes cheap and who will deliver?

Fish4Dogs do lots of fish jerky treats in bulk and they deliver.

Zooplus also do a lot of natural treats and delivery is free over £19.

Mine has a variety, some natural stuff from ZP, (duck necks atm) Fish4Dogs (I'm going to change to Burns Ocean Bites because I can get them locally at a better price.)
I make liver cake for training treats and she loves the occasional Bonio (she had a box for Christmas)
She has raw chicken wings a couple of times a week to keep teeth and anal glands in order
