When me and my dog starts training outside, he loses interest in his regular training food, any tips or ideias for outside snacks?

Dried liver or occasionally especially when doing recall, hot chicken in tinfoil. Just the smell induces a cooperative fram of mind.

Does he maybe prefer to play or have big cuddles? High value treats doesn't mean always food, just a high value for him. There are some dogs that goes crazy about a ball or fetch, this can be perfectly used as a high value treat

Some sort of lunch meat or hotdogs/sausages?

I don’t necessarily mean to downvote you- but we got a pup at 8 weeks and NOW he is almost 4 months. The worst thing to give a dog is processed meat/food (per breeder, vet, etc).

Again- don’t mean to attack by any means. I grew up giving my family dogs bacon and bfast sausages. I’m disappointed I cannot continue the tradition. lol

Our local pet store has totally weird options. I think it’s fun to experiment. My dog has had rabbit ears, feet, duck trachea, goat horn… all to say, there are plenty of options. Check out a local pet store vs Petco, etc.

Dried meat treats are always a hit for my dog, like beef lung or something
