Can I give my 7-week-old puppy deli chicken for training treats?

Occasional treats of plain, unseasoned, boiled chicken is probably ok. However, it is best only to use in special circumstances, like during training sessions. If you feed it rountinely she may not want to eat her regular dog food. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.

A few general recommendations: stick with well known brands with a good reputation. Look for products made in the USA. Kibble works great for treats and I use Purina Pro Plan chicken or lamb and rice. Dry biscuit type treats usually have less calories and salt. The jerky or moist type treats are fine in moderation (they have more calories and salt usually). Lastly, many dogs really like dehydrated chicken livers and chicken jerky. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

No, this shouldn't cause any problems at all. Boiled chicken is a great choice for training treats, and you can definitely go ahead and start working with Dexter as long as you keep your training sessions short and fun :)

Hi there. You can use small pieces of his puppy food, or you can use small pieces of meat that is cooked, like chicken or turkey. Something tasty to provide motivation. I hope that helps! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

In minimal quantity it could be fine, but be aware they may cause diarrhoea and stomach upset. It would be best to getting him used to carrots and similar healthy treats which can be then used for training as well.

How about some boiled white meat chicken (no bones)? Puppies tend to love chicken, and that would be a good healthy treat for him to help him learn commands. You can also try some boiled low fat ground beef in small amounts. I hope this helps, good on you for working on training Scott!

Yes you can giver her treats, preferably soft ones, there are many many options in pet shops, just take a look at the ingredients before you buy them, make sure they are made mainly from good quality meat.
