Treating Them Right: Balance is Key
Treats are an important part of bonding with your pet and can be valuable training tools, but moderation is key! A good rule of thumb is that treats should make up no more than 10% of your pet's daily caloric intake. Consider healthy alternatives like small pieces of carrots or green beans for dogs, or a tiny bit of tuna for cats. And remember—sometimes what your pet wants most isn't food at all, but your attention and affection. A good belly rub or play session can be just as rewarding as a treat!
