We taught our dog to jump for treats, I think one got caught in his throat. It was a piece of bone shaped doggie biscuit. We're not going to use that type again. But would like to continue with the jumping part. What do you suggest that we use for a treat that he won't choke on? He's a 45 pound dog.

You don't havee to change the type of treats, just break them up into smaller pices so you dont have the problem. If you really want to change brand because of your expierence then I recomend the bendy or squishy treats, they are easyer to chew and swallow than the harder treats. Also reward your pet after to decreace the chance of it happening again. ;)
It isn't hard to make your own doggie biscuits, and there are plenty of recipes online. Most of them are edible for people too, and you avoid all the chemicals they have in the store-bought ones.
I found this recipe online somewhere. In a blender mix 1 box corn bread mix with 1 pound chicken livers and a tsp garlic powder. Pour in pan and bake at about 350 degrees and cut in squares. My dachshund loves these things.
How about little cheese cubes? Or animal crackers -- they have no fat and are very low in sugar. Do they still make those things called doggie kisses? My sister used to give them to her dog. They looked like Hershey's kisses but did they ever smell awful! The dog loved them, though.
