It's a common story - your dog loves their treats around the home, but if you're out on a walk and they see another dog, it's as if you are trying to get them to eat small bits of gravel. Excitement and stress often decrease your dog's interest in their usual treats, so what can you do? The solution is oftentimes as simple as switching to a different treat, and in this video Elisheba Fay of Art and Science Behavior Services will teach you how to determine what food or treats will work best when your dog is struggling to focus.
