When And How To Give Healthy Made In USA Dog Treats

By Claudette Lambert


For American dog owners, giving their pets dog treats more than expresses how much they love them. It is a way of rewarding desirable behavior together with it being a vital training technique. One thing that enables made in USA dog treats to work so efficiently in training is due to the amazing smell sense of the animals. In addition to smell a treat from about twenty yard out, a dog can also get a very good idea of what it is made of. Here is look at the best ways of feeding dog treats.

A treat should be applied in reinforcing a state of calmness and submissiveness. They should under no circumstances be used for rewarding a state of mind that is excited and over-stimulated. The dog should at all times be allowed to get a scent of the treat first, but kept way for it to wait. Considering that they can smell from quite a distance, putting the nose just under its nose may not be of use.

As soon as the dog has gotten the scent, he may at first jump around, probably jumping on the feeder. If so, the owner should indicate disapproval with their body language and attitude by slowly moving to one side or back and then waiting. It is worth remembering that this moment of patience will be rewarded by having a well-behaved canine for a lifetime.

The dog will probably want to know what is has to do so as to get the treat after some time. They will show this by lowering their butt to the floor and looking up expectantly to the trainer. At this exact calmness moment, the treat is given. However, one should remember they are not used to make an excited animal calm, but to make it adopt a behavior of submissiveness and calmness.

The best time to give them is in between meals. It is important to choose a treat the animal will enjoy. A good technique is to save the most delectable and best ones for last to re-engage a canine should he start losing interest in the training session. If they are being used as tools of training, they will not be as effective right after the animal has had a whole meal. The owner should ensure the treat giving takes place in between meals and not right after or before a meal.

The best technique for treat giving is holding it in one hand between two first fingers and the thumb. The dog is allowed to sniff it so it knows the treat is there, while bearing in mind the rule: first the nose and then ears and eyes. The owner appeals to the dog brains most significant part through engaging its nose.

Next, as he is getting interested and sniffing, the treat is slowly lifted above nose height and moved gradually over the head and a bit back towards the shoulders. The purpose of this is for the dog to lift its head up.

When selecting made in USA dog treats, a trainer should make sure the ingredients are appropriate for feeding dogs. If the components are things that cannot be recognized or pronounced, then probably they are not the best.
