I'm ready for a DARN GOOD DOG, Chicago!
- Freeze dried cheddar cheese. No more having to refrigerate and cut up your cheese before training or taking walks. And so many options now: Pure Bites, Northwest Naturals, Pupford, Stewart (in a bucket!), and WagWell now produce cheddar cookies and can be found in local pet stores like Wiggleville Pet Boutique.
- Other cheesy treat options. Pupford has Gouda Crunchies (human grade so you can share!), Ollie has Parmesan Treats, Redbarn and Ollie have cheese puffs, Himalayan Dog Chews now have yak cheese puffs, and my favorite, Shepherd Boy carries freeze dried raw goat cheese (which is more easily digestible for our dogs and is lower in fat, calories, lactose, and sodium than other cheeses).
- Kelp and sea "monstah" treats. I've been using Earth Animal's soft Kelp Jerky for a few years and all the dogs like it! Now we also have: Polkadog Green Monstah Crab & Kelp Bone Dog & Cat Treats, Icelandic Cod & Lobster bites (plus several other options), Vital Essentials Salmon bites (plus Minnows and other fishies), and PLATO Hundur's Crunch Jerky Minis - single ingredient treats with Icelandic fish skin.
- Bison bites. Another fan favorite of the pups! Try West Paw, Spot & Tango, Health Extension, Fruitables, and Belly Benefits soft bison low calorie training treats, suitable for dogs with sensitive stomachs.
