According to the Five Element Theory, the liver is associated with the wood element and plays a vital role in detoxification and energy regulation. Since beef liver supports the liver organ, it aligns with the wood element and provides a direct source of nourishment and balance.
The theory of "Like Treats Like" tells us that similar qualities in foods can support corresponding organs and conditions.
Beef liver, rich in nutrients such as iron, vitamins, and minerals, directly benefits the liver and supports its functions.
Freeze-dried liver treats provide essential nutrients that strengthen the liver and help maintain its health.
They also offer concentrated, nutrient-dense support for the liver, promoting detoxification, energy flow, and overall vitality.

PET | TAO Beef Kidney Treats are single-ingredient treats for dogs and cats. Each treat contains only freeze-dried beef kidney. They contain no added fillers, flavors, or preservatives.
Beef kidney is naturally rich in protein, iron, riboflavin, thiamin, niacin, and vitamin A. These nutrients help support energy, immune health, skin health, and overall vitality.
In Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine, the Kidney belongs to the Water Element. The Kidney system influences aging, urinary health, reproduction, bones, and hearing. Beef kidney provides targeted food therapy support for the Kidney and Bladder Meridians.
These treats may be especially helpful for senior pets. They may also support pets experiencing age-related changes, reduced vitality, or urinary health concerns. However, treats should not replace veterinary diagnosis or treatment.
Yes. PET | TAO Beef Kidney Treats are made for both dogs and cats. Their single-ingredient recipe makes them an easy option for many pets.

Treat sizes may vary. Therefore, adjust the amount based on your pet’s size, diet, and calorie needs.
Yes. You can crumble the treats over your pet’s regular food. You can also soak them in warm water for three to five minutes. Rehydrating creates a soft and tasty food topper.

Ask your veterinarian before giving organ treats to a pet with kidney disease. Beef kidney can contain meaningful amounts of protein and phosphorus. Your veterinarian can determine whether it fits your pet’s specific renal diet and laboratory results.

My 11year old cat gets UTI’s. I feed her Hills Science Diet UTI food, but sometimes she still gets an infection... she has one now.. suggestions please..
Thank you for your question! You're looking in the right place. Kidney treats can help, along with PET | TAO's Soothe Bladder supplement. It is labeled for dogs due to the hard tablets it comes in, but it's safe for cats - you can crush the tablets into powder. Learn more about how Soothe Bladder works here.

Thank you for your question! The beef kidney is sourced from the USA in Wisconsin and the beef is grass-fed. You can learn more here: https://pettao.com/pet-tao-transparency/
What is the dehydrate to fully hydrated ratio? I home cook for my pups I would like to use this product in place of fresh raw kidney. If the pup requires 1.5 ounces per day of fresh raw; how much dehydrated product would you recommend?
Thank you for your question, and for your interest in Food Therapy and homecooking! If your dog requires 1.5 oz per day of raw kidney, we recommend using 0.5oz daily of PET | TAO's Freeze Dried Kidney Treats. If you're interested in homecooking, you can check out PET | TAO's blog and recipes here: https://pettao.com/pet-food-recipes/
Will it help dissolve stones??
Thank you for your question! Feeding Kidney may support the kidney and bladder, but is not known to dissolve stones on its own. That being said, freeze dried kidney is part of a well-rounded regimen of alternative treatments for pets suffering from kidney and bladder issues. This regimen includes Eastern Food Therapy (food, treats, and supplements) and Eastern Herbals. A complement to the food therapy program is an herbal formula called Crystal Stone Formula, which supports the dissolution of stones by clearing Heat and Damp, resolving crystals, and supporting the bladder's normal healing process. Crystal Stone Formula requires a veterinary authorization, which you can request here: https://tcvmpet.com/pages/get-an-authorization. The food therapy products do not require authorization, just the Eastern Herbals.
What is amount of phosphorous in the treats? Is it at the recommended level for cats with CKD?
Hi, thank you for your question!
We don't measure the phosphorus in this product. According to our founding vet, Dr. Casey Damron, the amount of phosphorus and protein in freeze-dried kidney treats, when fed in the appropriate amount, is not a concern.
We wrote an article about kidney treats for renal failure that you might like: https://tcvmpet.com/blogs/news/the-best-treats-for-cats-with-kidney-disease it explains the philosophy.

How long will a 3 oz bag last for a 10lb cat?
Hi! Thank you for your email!
We recommend 1-3 treats per day for pets under 25 lbs
The exact number can vary per bag since they are packaged based on weight rather than the count of treats.
We estimate there are between 100-150 treats per bag. The size of the treats also varies between batches due to differences in the appearance and size of beef kidneys that occur naturally.
