One of the
many tricks in a trainer's bag is the right motivational tools. Included are the tasty treats that dogs cannot resist. When you're thinking about training, your also thinking about adding more calories to a dogs diet. Let's face it, most of us don't have the willpower to not feed our dogs at the regular feeding time and none of us wants to create a health problem while trying to get training done. So for those times when you've got some training to do and still want to feed a regular dinner, there ARE some treats out there which can help you do both.
These Moo-Moo-Q's are made from cow lung. That means there's a LOT of air in them. I describe them like marsh mellows to my clients. The lung is a safe food to add to your dogs diet without worry of overfeeding and the pieces can be broken up to 15-40 treats each. The only downside is that they are not pre-cut into bite-sized pieces. Intended to be fed whole, one bag will last you through many, many training hours if you selectively use it for training only (which I highly recommend, since it makes this a VERY high value treat that must be earned and only appears once training).
After training so many dogs, I've yet to meet one that didn't work hard to earn these treats. I've yet to resort to trying the Bah-Bah-Q's (lamb lung, naturally) since the Moo-Moo's work so well but if you're looking for something a little different or have a lamb-treats-only policy - the good people at Old West have got you covered.
