Breaking, crumbling and sharing out the bag
Last updated
Liver is rich, so most of these guides are about keeping pieces small and counting them. They cover introducing liver one bit at a time, how small to break a piece for a small dog or a puppy, why large dogs can take bigger pieces without a bigger budget, and how to split one bag between several dogs or offer it to a picky eater. For meals, there are guides on crumbling liver as a topper and scattering bits in a snuffle mat. Start with how to introduce liver treats, or see the beef liver bag.
