These are like “doggie crack” to my 2 older Westies and younger ‘big black happy dog’ (he’s never disclosed his full pedigree to us!) compared to any other treat they’ve had in recent years. I’ll even break one up and put it on the dry food dish of whoever is feeling finicky when needed. When I couldn’t find more in my usual store I started to “panic” and came online to just order directly from the source!

I love Cloud Star’s products. These Tricky Trainers are what introduced me to the company. When I got my dog as a puppy, a trainer friend told me to get soft stinky treats for training. I found these, and my dog just loved them. She responded well when using them, and never got tired of them. I still use them as high value treats, and I recommend them over pretty much any other treat for training, including the frequently recommended Zukes. I know some people can’t handle the smell, but as someone who hates fish, it isn’t god awful to me. And frankly it’s worth it for how well these treats have worked as postitive reinforcement.
