Training Treats for Dogs
Small, soft treats optimised for reward-based training
Safety and Suitability Scorecard
Training treats are specifically designed to be small, soft, and highly palatable so dogs can receive many rewards in a training session without becoming full or distracted. Size and speed of delivery matter as much as palatability.
Benefits
- Small size allows high-frequency rewarding without overfeeding
- Soft texture means dogs can eat and refocus quickly
- High palatability motivates dogs in distracting environments
- Designed to be broken down further for tiny rewards
- Available in low-calorie formulations

Handling and Feeding Tips
Even small treats add up during a training session - calculate the calories into your dog's total daily food intake, especially with high-frequency rewarding.
What to Watch Out For
Even small treats add up. Calculate daily treat calories into your dog's total intake to avoid weight gain. Avoid artificial colours and flavours in cheaper products.
Best For
Puppies and adult dogs in training. Any scenario requiring frequent rewards: recall, loose lead walking, crate training.
