They are soft, and I have feed them to my friend's puppy. you can break them in half to make them even smaller.

This is an "all stages treat." The ingredients in this treat are the same as those found in the better "all stages dog food." Our puppy who is about 1 year old loves these treats.

I gave them in smaller pieces to my dogs when they were puppies. I have 4 Yorkie's so they are small. My 4 lb Yorkie has never had a problem with any of the Zuke's treats.

I LOVE this brand, however since it has "NEEM" in it, I personally would not use it on a young puppy as I have heard NEEM is not good for young animals. It says it's for DOGS but no mention of puppies.

I think that a whole treat would be to big for a pup that size. They are soft enough to break in half or even quarters which might be a more appropriate size.

It worked for about 6 months before my puppy got a hold of the box {that holds the prongs} and chewed it all up. This brand doesn't cause any irritation on my puppy. Hope this helps!

Hmmm, not sure? It has a 22min or 44 min cycle, before you have to hit the button to restart. If the puppy associated it w/ calming vibes it might help. We crate trained our puppy next to the bed & put a hand next to him/through crate when he whimpered which worked pretty well.

I think these treats would be difficult for her to chew.They are hard and she needs something soft.If you're looking for something soft try Wellness Wellbites.They come in different flavors and my dog likes them very much.Good luck!

My Yorkipoo has been on Embark since he was 4 months old, he 10 months now. I do notice him eating better, than the dog food we were given when we got him. As far as less, I guess it depends on the dog. I would contact Honest Kicthen.com and ask them about there food. There very helpful, if you ask they will give you samples to try!

My dog is a Black Labrador 8 months old; and he also likes to chew; but I use it as a game under supervision, and then put it away for another . Thid esy it becomes a real treat for some fun. It is not meant to be a toy for chewing, but one that is to develop skills in smelling and finding things. My dog loves it and then he gets real chewing bones to satisfy the chewing.

Yes, 0. But since you have a small dog and as you say a puppy. Better to focus on training. If used improperly this item will not be as effective. I like this product but personally I would not like to use it on such a small dog as it is too easy to yank it. Better to focus on training your dog to be by your side.

I guess it could be used for this purpose, but I really would NOT recommend it! First of all, the taste is very strong and the formula may be bad for your dog. I certainly wouldn't use this to discourage my dog! Just try and give your dog something to distract them.

You should be able to give this to your puppy since it is a natural product. If you want to be 100% sure, though, you may wish to contact your veterinarian with the details of the product and get the go-ahead from them.

Yes, Halo is formulated for all life stages. They do also offer puppy food that is smaller and higher in calories. My opinion is that Halo is the best food on the market.

LOL...I'm not a dog expert, so am not quite sure why you're asking me this question....I DO know that my son had no problem training his puppy to use her stairs...he said that he just put a treat on each step and she worked her way up to the bed. It might depend on how small or large your dog is too. Mine was smaller when I first got my steps, and now he's just under 30 pounds. He's really intelligent, and has caught on quickly to most things that I've taught him but he still will not go up these steps. I've tried the treats, I've tried walking up the steps with my hands to show him...he watches, but then wants nothing to do with them...LOL...he DOES use the top step to keep his babies and chew toys on. This was HIS idea, not mine, but when he wants something from bed, he simply goes to that end of the bed and leans over and retrieves it from the top step. I will keep trying...but he may never decided to walk up these steps...then again when he's older and discovers that there may be no other way to join Momma in bed, he may cave in and eventually use them.

Depends on the puppy. Yorkie, probably not. We used it on our mixed breed pup starting at about 16 weeks old (she is now 55 lbs.) to safely run around and it was fine. Being klutzy and crazy at that age she sometimes got it tangled up. it is LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG and strong!

Never use anything on a puppy without veterinarian approval. This powder has a very strong cooling effect. I would suggest you ask your vet about using plain corn starch on a puppy. NOT this powder.

I would not put it on a puppy, especially when they are not even 1 year old. Also, my Maltese is 6lbs and although it worked liked a charm, its too big for her. That said, only get this when training fails. However, it's usually easier/better to train them when they are puppies. I never did and it was difficult to have a barking dog (especially at night!). But this product DID work and I put a review on it (see Gong Joo Owner) for the first time bc we can now sleep at night!

From what I've seen of the Greenies you don't want to give them to puppies. We were giving them to both our dogs and then read the fine print. We found we're not supposed to give them to dogs under 6 months of age... so we stopped giving them the greenies. Our little puppy LOVES the rawhide chews. Good for plaque control and for his teething because they get soft and can massage his gums.
