Lukee Treats
Our boy loves his treats. There are a few strategies to rewarding and distracting Lukee with nummins.
Mini Milk Bones
Give at least three after every pill session — they wash the cookie bite down.
They're also the best distraction out in the world: when another dog comes by on a walk, or when the Amazon truck pulls up.
Comfort Chews
One or two a day, spread out. At least half of one 30 minutes to an hour after dinner — so somewhere around 5:00 to 5:30 PM. See Troubles for why that timing earns its keep.
Dunkin Donut Treats
Half a donut after his 9:30 PM pills.
Frozen Kongs
There's a container of frozen bone broth cubes in the freezer — help yourself. The little ones drop straight into his Kong, no cutting, no thinking about it. Good for about a 20 minute distraction, around 8:00 PM.
To make more: we freeze chicken bone broth in the mini cube trays. The big yellow tray still works too — just cut one of those cubes in half to fit the little Kong.
