Good thread. I usually use string cheese, hot dogs, sliced apple pieces or sometimes kibble. My dog is not picky at all. Only thing is when she get's hot dogs, you can smell them later. I like the meat loaf idea. I'm gona have to get more creative.
They are exactly the M&M size training treats that I always want on hand.
you can even break them in half for a small dog or puppy.
I like the white ones at my agility training class, because they have dark blue carpet and the dogs can see them (when I am tossing a treat for specific exercises)

This is a good thread. The other day I saw Carol's post where she mentioned the "trail mix" idea she got from Cindy. I have added some variety to my training bag -- GREAT idea Cindy!
Last Fall I read something similar about mixing up tracking bait for the dog too which worked great for me.
Solid Gold makes some good soft training treats.
But I have some Leerburg training treat shopping to do now too!

sliced apple pieces
Oh yeah, I forgot that one....I also cut up dehydrated fruit, mainly apples and banana and add that into the mix. I do also use fresh blueberries as treats as well.

#1, hands down best, dogs all time favorite is Connies' Micro Chicken Jerky AKA Dog Crack. Simple to make, and nothing but chicken. If I am out of chicken breasts I use Natural Balance Chubbs & if I don't have that I use Zukes Mini Naturals.

P.S. Partly freezing it first makes it easy to slice.
White meat is the only good one; thighs come out greasy, but breast meat comes out dry enough to actually carry in a pocket.
I do freeze it so I don't have to worry about whether it's got rare parts that could rot in room-temp storage.
Sue and I tried sprinkles of that cylindrical green-box "parmesan" and also tiny amounts of garlic seasoning (not fresh real garlic), but it turned out for both of us that the dogs loved the plain just as much -- so might as well do the plain!
