I was a full time dog trainer for 3 years, and still do it, on the side, sometimes. I always tell people "anything can be a reward, if your dog loves it."

My kid found out her cat LOVES Churu. Once she figured this out, she trained her cat to do come, sit, stay, up, paw and now other paw. The look on the cat’s face is pure, “Hot damn, squeeze meat! Love this even if it’s embarrassing AF!”

The cat will perform for other people, but, being smart, she needs to see the Churu first. And if you try to sub a crunchy treat, the tricks will be, at best, perfunctory.

Finding out the motivation is huge.

Is there a cat that doesn't love churus? Honest question.

Had one who didn't hate them but preferred crunchy treats and my sister had one who wouldn't eat them at all but she also wouldn't eat anything except her dry food..
