Dehydrated Chicken Liver

Liver is jam packed full of a plethora of healthy stuff for your pup! It is an excellent source of Vitamin A, Vitamins B2, B9, B12, while being an excellent source of omega 3 and 6 too. Liver is also full of vital minerals such as iron, and copper for your pet to live their healthiest life! 

Not to mention, liver contains less fat than muscle meat, which makes it a guilt free treat for your furbaby that doubles as a high value treat for training. I know my pup always goes for the liver first if he’s given a choice.

The Nitty Gritty

Vitamin A: Well known to be beneficial for skin, and vision health. Also supports cellular differentiation, which is a process that transforms cells into more specialized cells. Vitamin A also boosts the immune system by helping with the creation of the protective mucus that lines the lungs. 

Vitamin B2: Aids in the metabolism of fat, and carbohydrates into usable energy for your pup. Vitamin B2 is also integral in the production of red blood cells, as well as boosting your pet’s immune system by triggering the production of antibodies when combined with other minerals.

Vitamin B9: Crucial for pregnant dogs, as it can lower the possibility of birth defects, particularly in brachycephalic breeds. It is also essential for normal function of many metabolic processes, including red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis. 

Vitamin B12: Contributes to a strong immune system, as it is necessary to create parts of the body’s defense system; particularly the immunoglobulin, and cytokines. It is also crucial for proper digestion as it aids in the breakdown of protein to amino acids. A vitamin B12 deficiency could result in diarrhea.

Omega-3, and 6: The fats found in Omega-3 and 6 are beneficial for brain health, for both developing puppies, and seniors. Its anti-inflammatory properties also help improve overall cardiac health, as well as improving joint health; increasing mobility and reducing pain for those with arthritis, or potentially reducing the severity of future joint issues.

Choline: Aids in metabolism of fat, and cholesterol. Regulates fluid levels, contributing to proper gallbladder, and liver function. It is also a part of the protective sheath around the nerves.

Iron: Essential for maintaining, and supplying oxygen in the circulatory system. Primary roles are oxygen transport around the body, oxygen storage as hemoglobin; but it is also necessary for energy production, and is a cofactor for multiple enzymes in the body.

Copper: Aids in the formation of the skeletal system, as well as working to  prevent anemia by helping the body metabolize iron. It also plays a role in the creation of myelin, which is a membrane that protects all the nerves in the body.
