What kind of treats is everybody feeding their grey's?

I wasn't sure if i should get something like Milk Bones or maybe there is somenthing better i should be feeding her. I've been giving her the flat chips that aren't rawhide. She like those just fine. I just wanted to have something else to give her. Any suggestions??

Mine LOVE pigs ears as big treats.... For quik treats or rewards we always have on hand something yummy. Yummy Chummies (alaskan salmon-YUM), peanut but or liver flavor treats. If you ck the ingredients you can get some good for them & still not too expensive 'snacks'. I try to stay away from the generic, 'cheap' milkbones, grocery store type small packs.... We have some we get I call Nutter Butters because they look just like the cookies, are pretty good ingredients, not alot of fillers or grains & have a yummy peanut flavor 'glaze' on them.
Good luck!!!!

Maddie eats almost anything I give her. She loves her Marro-Bones and sneaks them from the bag when I don't close the pantry door quick enough. She loves bones in general but her favorite treat is Frosty Paws.

My hounds will eat anything. I give mine carrots, apple and stuff like that. I also use Old Mother Hubbard treats. I use liver treats and kibble for trainig. I don't use pig ears b/c it gives mine gas.

Mine like Mother Hubbard peanut butter treats. They get the big ones as a night time snack. Miss Maggie-Mae is picky and for the most part will only eat Iams treats.

Bully sticks are also a favorite around here.

And for teeth cleaning they get raw turkey necks. Except for Leo, he doesn't have enough teeth to chew the neck up before swallowing.

Jasmine my Meet & Greet dog likes ANY treat that Aunt Desta gives her!

Basically for treats I check the ingredients and try to get the ones that are not a lot of fillers. We don't do the store brands but mainly name brands like Mother Hubbard and Claudia's. Claudia's are actually really tasty - I have tried several of those.
