In the 5-element theory, the spleen and stomach are associated with the Earth element. The Earth element regulates digestion, nutrient absorption, and overall energy. Feeding beef spleen to dogs can help strengthen the Earth element and support the health and function of the spleen and stomach.
The spleen plays a critical role in producing and maintaining blood and Qi (vital energy) in the body. Beef spleen is rich in iron, vitamins, and minerals, which can help nourish the blood and support overall vitality.
According to TCVM, the spleen is vital for proper digestion and metabolism. Feeding beef spleen can help strengthen Spleen Qi, which can improve digestive health and nutrient absorption.
And, the theory of "Like treats Like" suggests that feeding a particular organ from one animal to the corresponding organ in another animal helps support the health of that organ. In the case of feeding beef spleen to dogs, it supports and nourishes the dog's spleen, which can improve the dog's overall health, especially in terms of digestion and immunity.

Since spleens are rich in pantothenic acid and potassium, feeding the spleen treat ideally helps improve their energy and prevent further muscle loss.

Thank you for your question! The calories are measured by weight, and there are 92 kcal/oz. There are 3 oz in a bag of Spleen treats. There are roughly 2 cups in a bag of Spleen trreats (this is a volume measurement, so it can vary depending on the size of the pieces). So, 1/4 cup is roughly 34.5 kcal.

What is your method of killing pathogens and bacteria prior to freeze drying?
Thank you for your question! Before freeze drying, PET | TAO doesn't do anything to kill backteria. After freeze drying, the result is a product that has so little moisture that bacteria and pathogens cannot proliferate. The products are tested after each batch for certain bacteria and counts. Here's a blog post PET | TAO wrote about their process:https://pettao.com/freeze-dried-pet-treats/

My 13.5 yr old Boston Terrier (M Neutered) was diagnosed with possible hemangiosarcoma after an abdominal ultra-sound and CT scan. 3 cm in spleen and metastasis to his liver. They gave us days... 3 1/2 weeks later he is doing great. He is taking a stasis breaker, Wei Qi, Mushroom Concentrate, Yunnan Baiyao, Tranexamic Acid & Gabapentin. Do you think that the spleen treats will be an added benefit? I will do anything to give him more time. He is my soul.
Hi, thank you for your question!
Yes, according to TCVM theory, feeding your dog spleen tonifys and helps restore the spleen meridian. As few as 5-6 daily treats can help our dog feel better.
This article by our founding veterinarian, Dr. Smith, explains splenic hemangiosarcoma. https://pettao.com/hate-dog-spleen-cancer/.
