Cardinal Laboratories Botanic Training Rewards Treats for Dogs, Chicken, 20-Ounce

My dogs (2 Dachshunds, a Chihuahua and a French Bulldog) love these Cardinal Laboratories Pet Botanics Training Rewards, chicken flavor and their size (1/4 of an inch in diameter and 3/8 of an inch tall; a tad bit smaller around than a dime see customer image I uploaded) in conjunction with their consistency (neither too moist, nor crumbly) makes them ideal for keeping in your pockets so that they are readily accessible when training your dog.

The primary ingredient is Pork Liver (chicken is 5th on the list see below). Pork Liver is a nutrient-rich organ which provides your dog with protein, fat and vitamin A. It is also a good source of copper, iron, niacin, phosphorus and zinc. It provides many B vitamins, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and essential amino acids. Liver is of great benefit to your dog's health when offered in moderation (too much can lead to a condition called hypervitaminosis A, or an overdose of vitamin A). These little treats are a great way to add the benefits of liver to your dog's diet.

They are also great for crate training, too. Just give them to your dog through the crate door as soon as you put them in and eventually they will associate something good with being crated. Soon enough you can just toss 2 or 3 in the crate when you need to crate them and they will happily go right in. My dogs have their own room that their crates are in. When I open the door to their room they run and get in the crates sometimes quicker than I can put their training rewards in.

FYI According to the manufacturer's website and also the product packaging, these training rewards are MADE IN THE USA, have only 3 calories per treat, and contain neither soy, corn, nor BHA, BHT, or ethoxyquin (artificial preservatives).

I have purchased all the Pet Botanics Training Rewards flavors. My dog loves them. For some reason the chicken flavor was not available until recently. These are a little cheaper than the pet stores in my area. Very glad they finally included the chicken as that is the flavor with which my dog was originally trained.
