Hi all,

Henry has been training really hard for this season but needs some really low fat treats instead of fatty sausages all the time.

Can anyone recommend some really low fat treats please....

Thank u.

Em & Henry beg EX

My home made tuna cake is very low in fat. The fat just comes from the eggs really; I use a little oil but you could leave that out.

You could also use sea jerky, dried fish skins :)

I use cooked liver, if you cut it into strips first it goes quite dry and chewy, don't know about fat content tho.

I always use part of my dogs daily food ration as his treats. This works great because he loves ANY food and doesn't effect his waist-line :)  i think I could teach him the river-dance with plain kibble if he was more co-ordinated ;)

There is a web site called zooplus that does low fat ostritch, bulls pizzles ect really resonable, they ship in about 3/4 days and as we have two dogs we use them a lot. One of my friends has two dogs so we buy quite a lot and share the cost. Also get pigs ears, but I do not think they are low fat. Deers ears are though.

Low fat treats?
I find my dog loves raw carrot and broccoli stalks cut into small pieces - not only low fat but natural and so much cheaper than ostrich or other strange treats!
Careful with fish skins and pigs ears etc as I'm thinking they are quite high in fat

Thanks guys but pigs ears not ideal for training obedience lol :-)

I need something easily cut up into small pieces but low fat and tasty. 

He does have liver cake sometimes but too much gives him squits.

Thanks Lori for the Tuna cake recipe.

I made some last night, and my girl, and the pup we have staying with us have gone MAD for it. I think we'll be keeping that as our 'speciao recall treat'. :-)

Ah tuna cake is great. Liver cake gives mine the squits if they have too much so this was my solution. :) I cut it into large cubes and store it in the freezer.
