Puppy training question: Is there some way, reasonably systematic, to find out what treats your dog might like more than others?

Other than trial and error? I’m thinking probably not but still hoping. Lizzie is my first dog and we are “in training.” She just seems to be a little picky in the treat department. I have found one treat that likes more than the others and maybe I’ll stick with that but there are so fricking many out there. Even the local pet store chain, with it’s smaller stores, has an entire aisle full of bags and boxes of treats. Petsmart, they must have a hundred different kinds, in the treat aisle and scattered around the store.

She may prefer that one kind treat over the others I have tried but what if there’s a treat out there, that I just haven’t found yet, that she’d do anything for? It sure would help with training. I can’t try a hundred different kinda of treats, at between $3–4 and 8$ a pop until I find one she loves. Maybe my expectations are too high. Maybe there is no perfect treat but there are some that don’t give me very good results at all, so there must be some she would like better, right?
