Soft Chicken & Oat Training Treats Recipe
These soft chicken and oat training treats are designed for marker training, puppy basics, and high-frequency reinforcement. They break easily, chew fast, and keep timing tight, making them ideal for clicker sessions and early obedience work.
Equipment
- - Mixing bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Baking tray
- Parchment paper
- Knife or pizza cutter
Food ingredients
- Cooked chicken breast finely chopped
- Rolled oats
- Egg
- Water or low-sodium chicken broth
Operation steps
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine finely chopped cooked chicken and rolled oats. Stir until evenly distributed.
- Add the egg and a small amount of water or broth. Mix until a soft, spreadable dough forms.
- Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking tray, keeping the layer thin for quicker baking and softer texture.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the surface is set but still slightly soft to the touch.
- Let cool completely, then cut into very small, bite-size pieces suitable for training rewards.
note
• These treats are intentionally soft so they can be eaten quickly without breaking training flow.
• For puppies or smaller dogs, cut pieces extra small to support high-frequency reinforcement.
• Store refrigerated for up to 5 days, or freeze in small batches for longer use.
• Always introduce new treats gradually and adjust training portions to avoid overfeeding.
