CHEAP dog treats! I was spending a fortune on dog treats training our puppy. I have since begun buying hot dogs and I slice them into thin discs. About half I cut again into 4ths. I use the smaller ones for training, when you need to use many in one sitting. I have done them in the dehydrator and in the oven on a rack. I cook until crisp. They not only store well, but one pack makes A LOT of treats. Our dog even prefers these over the expensive store bought treats. The price is about $3.49 for 8oz of store bought "real beef flavor treats vs. $1.00 lb (on sale of course!) 100% beef hot dog treats!
I've tried the hotdogs treats, as well. I've found they tend to stick in their throats and cause them to cough. I will use them if I run out of my other treats. I've used cat food, also. It works great and the dogs love it. But, what I mainly use is deer meat or beef. My husband hunts, so we have lots of deer meat. But, I've used beef as well. I buy the least expensive beef roast I can find and boil it. After it cools, I cut it into thin slices and then into tiny cubes about 1/4". I freeze them in small ziplock bags so I can pull them out as needed. They last a long time.
