[NAGDU] What’s a Baggalani? Was Re: Treats and dressing well

[Danielle Sykora]

Miranda brings up a good option. I usually use kibble as food rewards, and always when I need to use a lot of treats for any reason. I will however use crunchy training treats if I'm just putting a few in a pocket to avoid the smell and crumbs. Most crunchy treats have a much less distinctive smell as compared with kibble or moist training treats. they also hold about the same value as kibble for dogs that notice such things AKA not most Labs. I usually use Fruitables crunchy treats, which are about 8 calories and seriously smell like freshly baked muffins. Alternatively, I use Zukes crunchy naturals which come in 2, 5, and 10 calories options with practically no smell. Neither leave any crumbs.
