Organ meats are often overlooked by both human and pet food manufacturers.
Most meats we find at the store are muscle meats.
That’s because muscle meats like breast, thigh, sirloin and rump, grow in far larger amounts and are far easier to produce, package and promote than organ meat.
But that doesn’t mean organ meat isn’t healthy.
In fact they are some of the healthiest, most nutritious parts of an animal.
And chief of all the organ meats is beef liver.
Beef liver is up to 100 times more nutritious than muscle meats found in the average pet’s food.
It’s so nutritious that just a small sprinkle of beef liver each day can work wonders for your pet’s nutrition…
How Beef Liver Works & The Benefits
The liver is a critical part of a cow’s body. It’s involved in processing digested food from the gut, storing glucose, iron, vitamins and other essential nutrients.
That means it is absolutely loaded with nutrition.
Most beef liver contains a healthy dose of protein, fat, vitamin A, iron, copper, niacin, zinc, and phosphorus. Not to mention vitamin B, omega-3, and omega-6 fatty acids which all contribute to help your dog build up healthy amino acid levels.
These nutrients are vital for helping a dog stay happy and healthy.
Importantly the benefits of getting omega 3 and 6 from beef liver is key. That’s because most dog foods on the market completely overlook these amazing fatty acids that help maintain their own cells, organs and skin.
Why Dogs Feel Special Eating Beef Liver
Here’s a whopping insight about beef liver…
It was first spotted during years researching how a dog’s closest relative – the wolf – lives.
Wolves are pack animals. And when wolves go in to make a kill they do it as a team.
Once they take down an animal, the parts each wolf gets depends on their ‘Status’ within the group.
Here’s where it gets interesting…

Dogs also know when they are getting high quality liver.
Because most of what we taste comes through our sense of smell, and the average dog has 125 million sensors in their nose…. the smell of beef liver goes straight to their head.
And my do they love it.
When they get a regular dose of beef liver they must feel extra special because it taps into that ancient reward mechanism in their brain saying they are getting the best out there.
The Best Way To Give Beef Liver To Your Dog
As good as beef liver is for your dog there are two problems with getting it for your dog.
First as mentioned, most meat stores sell muscle meats, not organ meats. This means that finding high quality beef liver is hard outside of specialist stores.
Second, not all beef liver is equal. Because the liver processes a lot of toxins inside animals, getting the wrong type can be tainted with them. And putting low quality beef liver into your pup can be harmful in the long term.
As pet nutrition experts we realised this early and decided to do something about it.
