There are multiple training opportunities throughout the day for my guys.
With house training Bella, every time she goes outside she gets a treat and praise (as do the other two). She has a few training sessions/day and gets treats as do Buddy and Banzai.
We're currently teaching Buddy a new trick so he gets more treats for that.
When we go out to the pond, to a pet store, the opportunity is not wasted- there is a training opportunity and the pups get treats.
I guess I'm the type that sees an opportunity to train throughout much of the day.
They also get a treat when they go in their crates.
Of course, all treats are factored into their daily diets and they get special treats like bully sticks, RBM's and compressed rawhide somewhat occasionally, but not everyday.
Buddy gets Wellness and NB treats, while Bella gets charlee bear and Wellness and Banzai gets charlee bears and some peanut butter treats (until we run out then we'll get a more healthy alternative for him- those are his crate treats).
So, yup my pups get treats but they work for them, except for the crate treat which is given when they go into their crates.

Except mine get stuffed kongs as their crate treats.
