-- What kind of dog food and dog treats do you like?

[Simply Red]

I am dog-sitting this week and next - Mom's Shih Tzu 'Josie' really enjoys Crave, both CHICKEN PATÉ and BEEF PATÉ flavors. We just shifted from a different manufacturer (looked delish!)

Much more manageable and she devoured it!

Thanks in advance for your discussion and/or input - Pic below.

How about treats? Those were marked down to half price!

What brand+flavor(s) of dog food and dog treats do you enjoy?

Thanks again!

Dongster, you should give the poor beast treats just for having to hang around your dirty old legs.

I use ALPO Variety Snaps for Dog Treats. My dogs go "NUTS" for these. I've used these to teach my (8) dogs almost every trick there is. Just about $2.80 per box at Walmart. Break them into smaller pieces for small dogs.

Trifexis. The vets that sell this stuff want you to give it to the dog every month. I give it to them every 3 months. Works just the same. Been doing it for years and still no fleas.

Kirkland brand lamb & rice dry food is good for my dog. I've had her on other brands and her hair would start falling out in patches and she didn't look as healthy. Occasionally I'll give her some canned food for a treat and she loves that.

For treats, kirkland biscuits or just milkbones. The occasional tortilla chip, carrot, apple slice without the skin. Any time I cook a bunch of boneless chicken breasts I cook one separately without any oil or spices and give some to her.

This. All of the grocery stores around me package bones that I'll boil then give to my large dogs.

As far as dog specific treats- Mother Hubbard has several sizes and come in a variety pack. Blue Buffalo makes a variety of soft treats. Good ole' Milk Bones go over well. Peanut butter.. My guys also get treats with glucosamine and chondroitin

Edit- Then again, I've been called white trash here because I own a pit mix and a presa canario so what do I know?

My lapdog eats Sportmix 24/20 as his regular food, and gets a raw carrots for a treat.

We use Kirkland weight management for our Great Pyr. She doesn't get a lot of treats, so whatever we have at the moment.

That's like a polar bear dog.

Beautiful beautiful animal.

That breed will be our next purchase.
