Dog Treats

[doglover83]

My dog loves carrots as treats! Good in keeping my dog's glands clean.

i got a dehydrator cheap at walmart and dehydrate liver for their training treats. About $2 of grocery store "fast fry" liver dehydrated lasts about 5-6 weeks.
sometimes i buy dehydrated liver if i run out, but other than that, they sometimes get bits of stuff like the ends from cucumbers or a bit of apple...one of my dogs has allergies, so he doesn't get any store bought treats. . .

Sounds like you have some lucky dogs there! What do you use for cleaning their teeth? do you buy any knuckle bones or dental treats like Bright Bites? Looks like you have two German shepherds from your sig...I'd imagine they would just chomp through treats like it's nothing.

Two of my three are big chewers and would destroy a treat in about 2 seconds. I needed something that would last, and was also not so tough on their digestive system. We use compressed bones, which all 3 love. They are pretty reasonably priced, and last! For their back teeth, we use the little twisties. The twisties don't last long, but they are GREAT for cleaning the back teeth.
