What dog treats do dogs like best? Shayla
Abstract	The purpose of my project is to answer the question, “What treats do dogs like best?” I predicted that the dogs would pick the treat that they favor the most. I tested each treat on three different dogs .I gave the three dogs a choice of three different treats a peanut butter treat a commercial treat Melbone and another commercial treat Iams .I put the treat into three different bowls labeled bowl a, bowl b, and bowl c. I sat each of these bowls next to each other ten feet away from the dogs. I released one and I marked which treat they ate first for each dog. I repeated this process for six days. My resultshow that the dogs choose the peanut butter treat the most. My conclusion is that my hypothesis was correct. I predicted that the dog will pick the treat that they favor most and that is what happen.
Experimental Design	Problem: What treats do dogs like best? Purpose: My purpose is to answer the question what dog treats do dogs like best. Hypothesis: I predict that the dogs will pick the treat that they favor most. Variable: Three different dogs. Measured Data: Tally marks on which treat they pick. Control: No control. Materials: Homemade treats, Two different commercial treats, Three dogs, and three bowls. Controlled Conditions: The three dogs and the treats.
Experimental Procedure	Step1: Put three treats inside of three different labeled bowls Step2: Label the separate bowls as homemade treat, Melbone treat Step3: Put bowls in the center of the floor 10 ft away from the dogs. Step4: Released one dog at a time. Step5: Let the dog smell each treat. Step6: Record which treat they eat first. Step7: Repeat this process twice a week for six days.

Experimental Data Analysis: Graph of Data
Experimental Write Up . .	Results: The graph shows that the dogs choose the Penutbutter treat the most. Conclusion: My hypothesis was correct. I predicted that the dog will pick the treat that they favor the most and that is what happen. Application: People giving dog treats should try homemade treats on their dogs. Recommendation: A Instead of using three dogs use six dogs. B Instead of three treats use five C I would do it more than six days try twelve days. Summary: What dog treats do dogs like best. I found out that dogs pick the treats that they favor.

Reflection	What I learned about this project was that dogs eat what ever smells good to them. If I could change some thing about my project it would be use more treats and work on it more days. Also I would use more than three dogs.
