Partial Transcript:

Annie:

Hey, this is a recording of an Instagram live I just did about five of our go-to brands of dog treats at School for the Dogs.  The first minute or two didn’t record. But the first treat I am talking about is Lamb Lung. We have our house brand of lamb lung. And a listener wrote in and suggested that I would have a good voice for a ASMR. So I attempted to talk about lamb lung in my best whispery, breathy voice.

[whispering:]

I never thought I would think so much about the lungs of lamb. It’s really a disgusting thing. When you think too much about the lamb lungs that are enjoyed by our dogs, but at least one of these animals is having a good life. I don’t know about the poor lambs. It makes me quite sad.  Which it actually is one of the reasons why we started carrying a lot of vegan treats at School for the Dogs, because I think it’s actually a good idea to feed your dog vegan food, because it means fewer dead lambs, but that said the dogs do like the lamb lung.

[whispering:]

So this is the lamb lung that we carry. It’s our house brand. [crinkling plastic sound] Oh, it’s a crinkly noise to go with the whisper noise.  So many good noises. So I like it cause it breaks up into really, really small bits.  Really small, and they’re not greasy. And the dogs love them.

[whispering:]

So when I'm using a clicker, I will often have the treats and the clicker all together in one hand. And I will either have the lamb lung in small pieces, or I'll have one big piece, and then click, give a treat.  You can like break off a treat while you like click and then just break off a little bit. So lamb lung is a real go-to at .

[speaking] Oh my God, I don't think I can keep doing it. Doing the whisper is going to hurt my voice too much.  [laughs]

God, those whispering people on the internet have a lot of stamina.

Okay.  The second treat today is tricky trainers. We carry these in a bunch of different flavors kind of butter, cheddar cheese. This one is liver. I think liver is probably our most popular, and these are like the err dog treat. I think they're great.

There's a couple of dog treats that come in, kind of brands that have treats in this kind of shape and size is like pencil eraser type treat size. It's great. Cause you can break one of these up into like one, two, three, four, right? I think I've got six pieces here. They're super low calorie.  They’re three, three calories per treat. And like I said, one of these treats is really basically like 6 treats. So that's half a calorie per treat.

They're made by Cloud Star, which is a small company in Missouri. You've probably seen their stickers. They have the slogan Wag more bark less. They make stickers that people put on their cars and whatever. Anyway, I'm a big fan of wheat and corn free Tricky Trainers. And look how cute is their little logo. It's a dog riding a bicycle. I love it.
