TREATS: MORE THAN JUST A REWARD
Treats are a common part of daily feeding. They are often seen as something extra.
In reality, they serve a specific purpose.
It’s not just about taste
Treats function as:
motivation
reward
support for natural behaviour
For dogs, mainly during training. For cats, stimulation and interaction.
Quality matters
High-quality treats:
contain a high proportion of meat
reflect the needs of carnivores
avoid unnecessary ingredients
This makes them part of the overall nutrition, not just an addition.
Different types, different uses
crunchy → everyday reward
semi-moist → training
jerky → intense flavour
freeze-dried → high meat content
Each type has its place.
How much is just right
Treats should complement the main diet.
It’s important to:
control the amount
consider activity level
maintain balance
A small detail with a big impact
Treats may seem like a small detail. But they influence daily routines and overall nutrition more than it might appear.
