Ingredients
Method
- Line dehydrator trays or baking sheets with parchment paper if using an oven.
- Slice the liver into strips about 1/4 inch thick, keeping the pieces as uniform in size as possible.
- Arrange the liver slices in a single layer on the trays, leaving a little space between each piece so air can circulate.
- If using a dehydrator, set it to the meat or jerky setting, usually around 160°F, and place the trays inside.
- If using an oven, set it to the lowest temperature, around 170°F, and prop the door open slightly with a wooden spoon to let moisture escape.
- Dehydrate the liver for about 6 hours, rotating trays halfway through if needed, until the pieces are completely dry, firm, and slightly leathery with no soft or wet spots.
- Remove the trays and let the liver treats cool completely on a rack for at least 30 minutes.
- Once cooled, break or cut the liver into small bite-size pieces suitable for your dog and store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Never add salt, oil, onion, garlic, or seasoning to the liver; keep it plain for your dog’s safety.
- Store liver treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2–3 weeks, or freeze for longer storage.
