I'm all for treating my dog, I mean dogs are the best after all, but with the cost of everything going up I've been trying to scale back on how often I buy her the rewards.
Buying treats and other gifts for your dog can be done cheaply of course but in the long-run everything adds up and when we are facing a cost of living crisis, saving every little penny can help. I have a miniature Dachshund called Evie and she loves nothing more than cuddles and of course, treats aplenty.
She can be quite fussy when it comes to treats though and one particular bag she likes, from Pooch & Mutt, costs £3.79 for a 120g which roughly lasts her about a week and a half at a push. While I try and limit the treats I give her, (you have to be careful with Dachshunds' weights due to their fragile backs) I do a lot of training and treat playtime to keep her entertained while I work from home so I can easily go through a bag quicker than normal.
