A greyhound's favourite treats
We’ve tried giving several different kinds of treats, some more gruesome than others.
Here are some of the hits:
-
Ostrich Bone- these are very useful for cleaning teeth. You can also get them here.
-
Chicken feet- she can’t resist these but they look disgusting.
-
Sprats- make sure you keep these double bagged and sealed, they stink.
-
Liver Cake- picture above, these I make following the linked recipe. I don’t add any milk and swap flour for ground up oats. She loves them and they are useful to have on hand as treats for doing nails and teeth.
-
Dental Sticks-they are like candy.
-
Rabbit Ears with Hair- she loves them as much as chicken feet.
-
Natural Beef Tails Long Lasting Dog Chew- first time she threw it up. Now we soak it in water overnight to soften it and she can have it the next day, disappears quickly.
-
Premium Lamb Pizzle Twists- doesn’t require soaking in water, lasts awhile.
Moderate response:
-
Yak chew- we got these based on the Magnus YouTube channel recommendation but I would say she’s less enthusiastic about them over time. One useful tip is when you have a small piece left at the end, you can microwave it and it will puff up. Let it cool completely and it’s like a big cracker.
-
Training treats- these small treats are useful to put in puzzles and kongs.
-
Pure Salmon Sticks- she will take it but it’s not a favourite.
-
Venison Tendon- she threw it back up. Softening it in water before might be helpful but we haven’t tried it.
-
Pure Paté Variety Pack- not as effective as homemade liver treats.
-
Most other mass produced treats
