Top Ten: Training Treats

Training your dog is an amazing way to bond with your pet whilst reinforcing basic obedience - a very important behaviour to master for any dog. We at Shoreline are big fans of positive reinforcement training, so we have a large selection of treats that will have your dog sitting pretty! If you want the full positive reward package we also stock lots of clickers!

Here we have chosen our top ten training treats...

1: Nature's Menu

These bite-size, semi-moist treats are a super tasty reward for dogs due to the 95% meat content. They come in handy resealable packs in three flavours - chicken, lamb and beef - and are all grain-free. They are by far our most popular training treat, and the staff dogs will do anything for them!

2: Fish4Dogs Super Stars

These tiny treats contain 55% fish and are infused with salmon oil to make them extra smelly and tasty! With no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, Super Stars are very healthy and sure to be a big hit!



3: Alpha Spirit

These semi-moist treats are perfect for dogs that need a lower fat diet. They are high in meat and tofu, and contain joint care supplements and omega 3. They come in resealable packs of small pieces or rolls of sticks to cut off your own portion size. They also come in lots of flavours to give your dog a bit of variety. 


4: Lily's Kitchen

The Lily's Kitchen Cheese and Apple Training Treats are an all organic and low fat biscuit. They are packed with tasty farmhouse cheddar, calcium for teeth and bones, and fresh apples. They also contain flaxseed, which promotes organ health and a shiny coat, and rosehips, which are a rich source of vitamin C. 



5: Perrito

Perrito treats are a great choice because they are 100% natural and 100% meat, making them ideal for sensitive tummies, or for dogs that are on a grain-free diet. The chicken chunkies are good for training due to the small size, and can also be given to cats!




6: Feelwells

Coming in three tasty varieties - grain-free, liver and cheesy - these semi-moist treats are nice and small so great for a quick reward. The grain free variety is a good option for dogs on a sensitive diet, whereas the liver is very high value if your dog needs a little extra coaxing! 




7: Betty Miller's

The Betty Miller's training treat range comprises of healthy biscuits in different varieties to suit your individual dog's needs. The bone shaped biscuits are nice and small, but can be broken in half if needed. The range includes: Petites, for general rewarding; Good Dog, containing liver and carob for a high taste reward; Fussy Dog, with salmon for finicky pooches; Chubby Dog, for those that need to shed some pounds; and Whiffy Dog, with charcoal and peppermint to aid digestion and keep breath fresh. 





8: Arden Grange

The Arden Grange Liver Paste includes 35% liver so is an extra tasty reward when training. It comes in a handy tube to keep pockets and fingers clean, and it easy to portion. It is naturally hypoallergenic and can also be used to administer medication, due to its strong smell and mousse-like texture.

9: The Natural Way

The Natural Way bones are a natural holistic biscuit. The liver and chicken varieties contain high percentages of meat to make them tasty as well as healthy. The ingredients of the apple and cinnamon bones have many health benefits: Apples contain high levels of pectin and antioxidants; Cinnamon is a source of manganese fibre, iron and calcium; and rosemary is a natural source of iron, calcium and vitamin B6. 





10: Coachies Lick Treat

The Coachies Lick Treats are an innovative and novel way to reward your dog. They come in 'deodorant' style bottles to keep pockets clean, with a rollerball top for dogs to lick as a reward. With all natural ingredients, there is only 1 calorie per 8 licks, so are a guilt free treat for your dog! With over 500 licks per bottle it's certain to last through many training sessions! 



These are just our top ten suggestions to get your dog's attention (and keep it that way!) We have lots more treats to tempt and reward your dog in store, so come down and see us to find what will best suit your pooch!
