Norman Saul Webboard User Reg: 08-09-2001 Posts: 70 Loc: Offline	I recently switched to the BARF diet and now I'm trying to find an all natural treat to use during training. Any suggestions? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> He who has never tasted soap has never bathed a dog

If you are talking treats, I found a wonderful website to make your own dog buiscuits and they have several recipes for allergic dogs. I make the salmon cookies every other week for my dogs.

Dave Trowbridge Webboard User Reg: 07-12-2001 Posts: 215 Loc: Boulder Creek, CA Offline	I feed BARF and use hot dogs for training. My experience (and my trainer's advice) has taught me to avoid anything crunchy (like dehydrated lamb lung or "cookies") for a training treat, since it takes the dog longer to eat than a hot dog slice or something similarly soft, and so can distract from training. I prefer something the dog can gulp without pausing. Your mileage may vary! Dave Trowbridge Boulder Creek, CA
