Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the only ingredient in these freeze-dried beef heart treats?

Ans: These treats are made with 100% beef heart and nothing else. There are no fillers, artificial additives, grains, gluten, or preservatives, making them a straightforward single-ingredient snack that works for dogs and cats of all sizes and life stages.

Q2: Are these beef heart treats safe for cats as well as dogs?

Ans: Yes, these freeze-dried beef heart treats are made for both dogs and cats. Daily feeding guidelines suggest 2-4 pieces for cats and small dogs, 4-6 pieces for medium dogs, and 6-8 pieces for large dogs per day.

Q3: Why is beef heart a good treat for pets?

Ans: Beef heart is naturally high in taurine, a key nutrient for heart and vision health in both dogs and cats. It also provides strong protein levels, at least 67% crude protein, which helps support lean muscle mass and overall energy.

Q4: Can these treats be given to pets with food sensitivities?

Ans: Yes. These treats are grain-free, gluten-free, and made with just one protein source, beef heart, with no artificial additives or preservatives. They are a solid choice for pets that need a limited-ingredient diet due to food sensitivities.

Q5: How should I serve these treats, whole or crumbled?

Ans: Both options work well. Pieces can be given whole as a training reward or broken apart and crumbled over your pet's regular food as a meal topper. The soft texture after freeze-drying makes them simple to break, even for smaller pets.

Q6: Do these treats need to be refrigerated after opening?

Ans: No, refrigeration is not needed. Keep the treats in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and reseal the packaging tightly after every use. This helps maintain freshness, aroma, and texture between each feeding session.
