  Want to speed up your training sessions, allow your dog more successes in less time, and keep the training momentum going? It could be as simple as switching to soft training treats! If you do your training with hard treats or kibbles, your dog needs to stop and chew between each repetition. This can break their focus and you both lose momentum. Soft treats allow the dog to receive their reward on the go and move on to another repetition or a new task without slowing either of you down. Some great soft treat ideas include cheese, hot dogs, boiled chicken, or home-made soft dog treats.
