Pork Freeze Dried Dog Treats

Verified Jun 6, 2026

Dog · Treat All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

A simple, high-protein freeze-dried treat made from 100% pork liver, designed for dogs of all ages and sizes. The single-ingredient formula makes it a good option for dogs needing limited-ingredient treats or for use as a high-value training reward. Its low moisture and high protein content also help keep each piece relatively low in calories while still being very nutrient dense.

KibbleLab Score
9.1 out of 10

This is a very high-quality, single-ingredient freeze-dried treat that works well for most dogs, including those with many common food sensitivities, as long as they tolerate pork. The protein level is high and each treat is only about 5 calories, which is helpful if you’re watching your dog’s weight or using multiple treats for training. Because it’s made only from pork liver, it should be used as a treat or meal topper rather than a complete diet, and total liver intake should be kept moderate over the day.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Single animal-source ingredient (100% pork liver), which is excellent for dogs needing limited-ingredient treats or simple protein sources.
  • Very high protein and relatively low fat on an as-fed basis, with only about 5 calories per treat, making it easier to incorporate even for dogs that need calorie control.
  • Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients and flavor without needing artificial colors, fillers, or sweeteners.
  • Suitable for all life stages and breed sizes as a supplemental treat or topper, as long as overall daily liver intake is kept reasonable.

Considerations

  • Because this is pure liver, it is very nutrient dense; large amounts every day could provide more vitamin A and certain minerals than desired, so it should stay a modest portion of the total diet.
  • Not appropriate as a complete and balanced food; it should only be used as a treat or topper alongside a balanced dog food.
  • Contains pork, which can be an issue for dogs with pork-specific food allergies or intolerances.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Pork Liver
Pork liver is an organ meat used in pet foods as a nutrient‑dense source of high‑quality protein and concentrated vitamins and minerals—notably vitamin A, B vitamins (including B12 and folate), iron and copper—that support red blood cell production, skin/coat condition and overall metabolism. Because liver is very rich in vitamin A and certain minerals, it should be included in limited amounts to avoid hypervitaminosis A or mineral imbalances and must be properly processed to reduce pathogen risk; pets with urinary stone issues or a pork sensitivity should use caution.
