Healthy Dog Treats
Why use healthy dog treats rather than something less expensive for our dogs? Healthy dog treats are a part of your dogs diet. If you care enough to feed healthy food as a regular diet, healthy dog treats are a part of that diet.
If you and your family eat well balanced meals I doubt that you would then give your children some sugar and salt filled snack. It is the same for our pets.
Healthy dog treats come in many shapes, forms and with many different ingredients. Some healthy dog treats are meat based while others are veggie based. I do not believe that dog treats made with a base of grain are healthy dog treats. Where in nature would a wolf get anything that starts with processed grain as the main ingredient? Dogs are meat eaters. Many dogs, like many people have allergies to wheat, corn and soy. Treats and food that use these ingredients as the main component, in my opinion, are not healthy dog treats or healthy dog food.
Healthy dog treats are a great training aid. When you are house training a new puppy you can use healthy dog treats as a reward for going potty outside. You can use healthy dog treats as a great way to interact with a dog of any age. They are a great training tool. They are a wonderful way to say I love you to your best fur friends.
When selecting healthy dog treats, read the ingredient list first. Are the treats made from REAL food? Are the ingredients from safe sources? Where are they made? Select treats (and food) that are USDA human grade products. Also, select products manufactored in the USA. The FDA resently sent out a warning about a chicken breast strip that is made in China. Dogs are becoming very ill and even dying after eating these treats. Testing has been done and so far they have no answers to what is causing the illnesses. I am sure you don’t want your dog to become ill because you were trying to give them a snack.

I just wanted to let you know that I received the free sampler and my dogs did love them. So much so I shared them w/people at my work and got the same results from their pups. So now I’m back to order some. I have one finicky maltese that doesn’t always like the treats I come home with, my others aren’t quite so choosy. I’ve just started training her and she will work for these. Thank you!
