Gunner is very laid back and isn't extremely food motivated. When doing a training session, I'm having trouble finding a good treat that keeps his attention. The treats I have now he doesn't get really excited about. What's your dog's favorite treat? What have you found that keeps their attention and keeps them excited about training? The brand and type would be helpful so i can order offline if needed....

Thanks for the tips! :) Gunner doesn't get excited about a whole lot lol...he's extremely laid back. He is very smart and obedient though and responds well to training sessions...he just doesn't seem like he enjoys it as much as I wish he would. I do make him work for his meals. I vary up commands but he always has to sit and wait at least. I'm trying to make training more fun for him and to find a treat that will motivate him a bit more...something that he can get excited about. He's not a big eater anyways. He eats a lot, but not all at once. I free feed him because he prefers to take a bite or two at a time and walk away.

Thanks for the tips everyone! I'll experiment and see if I can find something to get him excited. He's not really big on toys either. He'd rather lay in my lap and be loved on :)
