They struggle with the timing. Your puppy sits, you reach into your pocket, you fish around for a treat, you drop half of it, and by the time the reward lands the puppy has already stood up and wandered off to sniff a shoe. The lesson is lost, not because the puppy is stubborn, but because the reward arrived too late to mean anything.\n\nThat is where treat choice quietly matters. A reward that is easy to hold, quick to hand over and gone in one bite lets you mark the right moment. A reward that is big, soft or crumbly does the opposite. Liver Puppy Reward Treats 400 g are small crunchy treats, which is the shape that fits the job.\n\nWhat this product actually is\n\nKeeping it simple, here is what we hold on this product. The life stage is puppies. The protein or flavour is liver. The form is small crunchy treats. The pack is one 400 g bag. The storage direction from the maker is to store in a cool, dry place.\n\nBreed size is not stated on the pack details we hold, so treat that as an open question and use your own judgement on piece size. The full ingredient list is printed on the pack. We do not hold a copy, and we are not going to guess at it, so read the bag before you start if your puppy has any known sensitivity.\n\nHow reward training works in practice\n\nReward training runs on a loop. You ask, the puppy responds, you mark it, you pay. The faster that loop runs, the faster the learning happens. Short sessions beat long ones. Five minutes before breakfast and five minutes in the evening will usually get you further than one tired twenty minute session.\n\nSmall treats are what let you run that loop many times in a row. If every reward is the size of a biscuit, you will fill your puppy up in two minutes and have to stop. If every reward is a small crunchy piece, you can get through thirty or forty repetitions in a session without overdoing it, as long as you stay inside the feeding guide printed on the pack.\n\nCrunchy pieces have one more practical advantage. They do not smear in your hand or go sticky in a warm pocket. Anyone who has done a summer walk with soft treats in a pouch knows exactly how annoying that gets.\n\nWho the 400 g pack suits\n\nA 400 g bag is a middle sized pack. It is a sensible choice if you are in puppy school and doing homework between classes, or if you are at the stage of building recall, lead manners and a reliable settle at home. It is also fine for general everyday use, where you want something on hand for good behaviour without opening a new bag every fortnight.\n\nIf you only give the occasional treat, a bag this size will last you a long while, so storage matters more. Keep it closed and cool so the texture holds up. If you are training two puppies, or doing a lot of outdoor work, you will go through it faster and may want a spare in the cupboard.\n\nHow long a bag lasts really does come down to the feeding guide on the pack and your training habits. Rather than guessing, count a session's worth into a pouch at the start. You will see your usage clearly within a week.\n\nHow to choose between treats\n\nA few honest things to compare when you are deciding.\n\nSize and texture come first. For training, smaller is better. You want something your puppy can swallow in under a second so attention comes straight back to you.\n\nThen check the ingredient list against anything your vet has told you to avoid. Liver is the listed flavour here, which makes that first check straightforward. The rest of the list sits on the pack, so read it.\n\nValue is easy to calculate once you know the pack weight. Divide the price by 0.4 to get a per kilo figure for a 400 g bag. Do the same sum for whatever you are comparing against. Pack sizes vary a lot in this category, and a cheaper looking bag is sometimes the more expensive one per kilo.\n\nFinally, think about how you will carry them. A treat pouch on your belt changes everything about lead work and recall, because your hands stay free and the reward is always within reach. It is a small purchase that makes a good treat work much harder.\n\nFitting treats into the day\n\nTreats are not a separate budget. They form part of what your puppy eats, so the feeding guide printed on the pack is the number to work to. On a heavy training day, many owners trim the evening meal slightly to balance things out. If you want guidance specific to your dog, your vet is the right person to ask.\n\nKeep fresh water available at all times. That is more important than people expect during training, especially outdoors or on warm days. A collapsible bowl in your bag covers it.\n\nIf you are switching your puppy's main food as well, the usual approach is to make the change gradually over about a week, mixing a little more of the new food in each day. That is for food changes, not for adding a treat, but it is worth knowing if both happen at once.\n\nStorage and keeping the texture\n\nThe storage direction is simple. Cool, dry place. Close the bag after every session.\n\nHumidity is the real enemy of a crunchy treat. If the bag is left open in a steamy kitchen, the pieces soften and lose the snap that made them quick to handle. Decanting into an airtight container with a good seal solves this, and it also keeps curious noses out of the pantry. Keep the bag away from direct sunlight and off the top of the fridge, where it tends to get warmer than people realise.\n\nIf you are packing treats for a walk, take out what you need rather than carrying the whole bag. The main pack stays sealed and the walking supply gets used up properly.\n\nA few training habits worth building\n\nReward the behaviour you want, immediately. Do not wait until the puppy has already broken position.\n\nVary the value. Use something ordinary for easy things at home and save the treat your puppy loves most for hard work like recall in a park with distractions. The best recall training treats are whatever your particular dog will drop everything for.\n\nFinish on a win. End the session while your puppy is still interested, not after it has lost focus. That makes the next session easier to start.\n\nWatch for overstimulation. A puppy that will not take food in a busy place is usually not being rude, it is just overwhelmed. Move somewhere quieter and try again.\n\nThe short version\n\nLiver Puppy Reward Treats 400 g are small crunchy treats for the puppy life stage, with liver as the listed flavour, in a single 400 g bag. The small size is the point, because it lets you reward fast and often during short training sessions.\n\nRead the ingredient list on the pack before you start, follow the feeding guide printed there, keep fresh water available, and store the bag somewhere cool and dry with the top closed. Ask your vet about anything health related for your individual dog.\n\nDelivery is within Australia, dispatched within 2 working days and then up to 7 working days by tracked courier, free on orders of $99 or more and a flat $12 below that.
