#1 The Nuances of Giving Treats
Administering treats to pets is a nuanced process, often underestimated in complexity. Experts in pet care emphasize the importance of timing when giving treats. The ideal scenario is when the dog is in a state of calmness, typically shown when they are patiently sitting or lying down.
A crucial point to remember is to avoid giving treats during their regular meal times, as treats are not meant to replace well-balanced, nutritious meals. The key lies in finding a balance in timing: treats should not be given too promptly nor too long after meals. A short wait, perhaps a few minutes after eating, is usually the perfect time to offer a treat, rewarding their good behavior without disrupting their meal routine.
