Pig Ears for Dog Treats

It sounds odd and I'm not real sure whether roasted Pig Ears are healthy for an older Cairn Terrier, but my young Cairns love them.

"Have you seen my Cairn Terrier puppy photos yet? How cute do you think I am?"   Happy Jack Generally I give Molly and Jack each a Pig Ear as a treat about once a week. Some weeks they might not get them at all. Since they love them so much and it takes about 30-40 minutes for them to eat one, that's 30-40 minutes of pure silence for me to watch a favorite TV show like Survivor without interruptions. ;)

As I mentioned before, feeding your Cairn Terrier treats or anything that is not their regular dog food, should be done in moderation. The more treats you give outside of any training, the more spoiled and finicky they will become.

If you want a spoiled and finicky Cairn Terrier, that's fine. But don't expect great training results or consistent good behavior. Cairns are very smart and have a way of just melting your heart with all that pure cuteness.
