Hello.. My guy is 10 weeks old. What should I award him as treats during training sessions? I have tried his regular dog food (royal canin), but it's not effective. Anything alternative product or any home made recepies ?

Your puppy is still a bit young for lots of training, he is still a baby. I suggest you book in to a puppy training class once his vaccinations are done. As for treats, it is not always necessary to give food treats. Praising is a great treat and works just as well, if not better.
