Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Treats

What do professional dog trainers use for treats?

Professional dog trainers use a variety of treats for training. Most trainers give a mix of high-value treats and lower- or medium-value treats to encourage different behaviors. Special high-value rewards like freeze-dried meat dog treats, moist dog treats and treats with a strong, palatable odor are usually used for difficult training tasks and when introducing a new behavior. For reinforcing learned behaviors, lower-value treats like dried dog biscuits and lower-calorie rewards are more commonly used. Chewy has a great selection of dog treats you can use for training, so you can find everything you need for a perfectly trained pup!

What are the best ingredients to look for in dog treats?

The best ingredients to look for in dog treats are real meat and protein-rich canine favorites like peanut butter and cheese. Look for recipes with mainly healthy, natural ingredients and a minimum of fillers and artificial ingredients. Freeze-dried real meat and organ treats are usually a good choice, as are crunchy natural dog biscuits made with wholesome meats, fruits and veggies. Chewy offers a wide selection of premium dog treats of all types, so try a few and see which ones your dog likes best!
