Carrot Treats

Early this month I took a private agility lesson to help with Tilda's jumping problem. The lesson was good and I am continuing to work with Tilda. I was given five different exercises to work on with Tilda and to practice with her for about five minutes a day (not doing all five exercises though.) Because I have to practice everyday, I need to use different kinds of treats to keep it fun, fresh, and interesting for Tilda. One thing that I found, is to cut up carrots, put them in a bag, and add a little bit of peanut butter. Of course plain carrots would work, but the point of the peanut butter is to make the treats more special, something more tasty. Now sure, your hands do get messy when training, but it's just peanut butter and carrots. And plus, it's a veggie for your dog :)

California Natural Treats

A little while ago I bought some new treats for Tilda. They are California Natural Chicken Meal and Rice Formula Healthbars. I got them because they are a bigger hard treat, which I thought would be good for her teeth. These work out really good to give her when we leave her home by herself and plus she gets something good for her teeth. And Tilda likes them!

First three ingredients:
Chicken Meal
Rice
Oatmeal

Is This Tilda Proof? - Mr. Quack

This is a toy Tilda got at the last agility trial we did (5/20/11). All dogs entered got a toy, which is quite nice! :)

Mr. Quack, the average stuffing filled squeaker toy. Perfect for Tilda to do some handiwork on :)
