How to Chop Dog Treats in 5 Minutes or Less By Katherine Ostiguy, KPA CTP, photos courtesy of author In our canine day school program, we go through a lot of dog treats! During our busiest weeks, it is not uncommon for us to use 10 pounds or more. We're always looking for the fastest and most cost-effective ways to prepare and store this much food in our training studio. When it comes to food rolls, we have this down to a science. We recommend and sell Happy Howie's treat rolls (and they're available at www.cleanrun.com as well). Happy Howie's rolls are way less crumbly than other rolls on the market, which is why they are our favorite. These are 1- or 2-pound chubs of semi-soft dog treats which you can chop up or tear chunks off to give to your dog. Because you take care of the cutting yourself, these treats are very inexpensive per pound. 56 Here's how we process a 2-pound Happy Howie's treat roll at the academy in just 5 minutes or less. * Unwrap the roll. While a pair of scissors works just fine to snip the plastic open, we use a pair of large dog nail clippers. * Slice the roll into discs. We usually aim for ¼" thickness; the ones shown in the photos are a bit thick. * Place one disc at a time on the cutting portion of your Vidalia Onion Chopper.
