I'm looking to find healthy treats for our dogs. Something that may help keep their teeth clean and tasty. What's your dogs favorite? Do you buy them or make them yourself? Is it a people food or made for dogs?

[Olympia]

My dogs faves are Trachea's, venison necks, and frozen marrow bones! For just everyday treats they love the Old Mother Hubbard cookies, I buy the puppy size as I limit stuff like that.... Also "The Loved Dog" treats they can be found in the pet food isle at the grocery store in the little fridge.

my dogs favorite treats are dehydrated chicken liver. I buy the freash liver at the store and then stick it in the microwave oven untill it gets almost hard and dry.

[SunnyPaw]

We have a new flavor coming out - so it is not on our website yet, but it is available. Our SunnyPaw "VEGI-BONES" are crunchy & bone-shaped; here is the complete ingredient list: organic yams, organic spinach, organic unsweetened applesauce, organic cranberries and organic buckwheat. These are GRAIN-FREE, as buckwheat is a not a grain of course, but a fruit seed related to sorrel and rhubarb. Our "taste-testers" LOVE them, and they are naturally delicious!

If anyone is interested, we will send out a FREE SAMPLE to the first ten people that PM me.

Nanuq loves dehydrated sweet potatoes. I bought her some but they are a bit pricey. I am going to borrow a dehydrator and try making some myself. Hopefully she will like the homemade ones as much as the store bought.

[SandyPuppy]

Sandy's favorites are raw marrow bones, and raw carrots.

I bought a dehydrator and make sweet potatoe treats, dried chicken and dried bison jerkies for my 3 buddies.They dig up carrots from the garden. They also love fresh & dried apples & apricots from my orchard. Using a dehydrator is really easy & saves time & $! For teeth-- raw bones.

[FaithFurMom09]

Faith is a traditionalist, lol. She likes cheese, cherrios, and PB. As far as bones, she loves those HUGE bones you can buy. not rawhide but the other ones.

[Michiyo-Fir]

Mine likes Wellness Wellbites and Wellness PureRewards but these aren't teeth cleaning. They are pretty healthy though!

[maquignon]

Raw carrots. They are cheaper than any commercial treat. They contain no harmful ingredients. They help clean the teeth. They are very healthful.

[kamsmom]

We use RMB's and also deer or elk antlers for chewing, treats and also is good for teeth cleaning.

[michelleboston]

Bullysticks and marrow bones.

[1wife2dogs]

We found some treats that we really liked for our dogs. We bought with the smaller hard bones they had. There are so many cookies to look at but these seemed reasonably priced compared to a lot of other cookies on the web. Of course store bought is good except for the preservatives in them.

I bet my dogs would love that. Do you just cut it in bite size pieces? Approximately how long in the microwave? On high? That's a good idea!

Would beef liver be just as good?

HMMM - would you put any "spices" or just plain? I could do that - I have a dehydrator I hardly use!

I give our raw carrots sometimes - they like 'em!

[Puppy_love_122]

Mine both love carrots.

[flipgirl]

Other than my underwear? Raw meaty bones, Wellness PureBites and Zuke's Mini's Chicken flavour.

[HORSEandHOUND]

Raw veggies, frozen and fed whole (like carrots, sweet potatoes, yellow squash, apples)
Blue apples and yogurt health bars
Zukes mini naturals training treats

If you pop it yourself, either with an air popper or on the stove, plain popcorn is very healthy. Of course, you wouldn't want to give it to a dog with a corn allergy. And it won't do anything for teeth cleaning.

The dogs and I love to share those 100 calorie smartpop bags that go in the microwave. And I taught them how to catch food out of the air with the popcorn. It's a fun palor trick.
