Are these treats suitable for dogs with allergies?

They are a single-protein beef liver treat with no grains or fillers, so they suit many elimination diets. Check with your vet if your dog has a confirmed beef allergy.

Can I use them as a meal topper?

Yes. Crumble a piece over food for extra protein and aroma. They are supplemental only, not a complete meal.

How should I store them after opening?

Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dark, dry place and aim to finish within about 30 days of opening.

Are they good for training?

Yes. The pieces are small and light, and the strong smell holds a dog's attention. Break larger pieces down for frequent rewards.

How many can I give my dog a day?

Feed in moderation as a treat. At about 3 calories per piece they are low-calorie, but they are rich, so start small and adjust for your dog's size.
