Dogs love liverwurst! Alongside dog treats, liverwurst is one of the most popular foods for training, education and motivation.
Unfortunately, most conventional liver sausage spreads contain pork. If it is undercooked, it can transmit the virus Aujeszky's disease and become dangerous for your four-legged friend.
In addition, many conventional liver sausage products for dogs often contain harmful nitrates, flavor enhancers, preservatives or other artificial additives.
We have therefore put together a quick and easy liver sausage recipe for dogs that you can easily make in your kitchen.
