Iโ€™ve taken some much-needed time offline to grieve the immense loss of my beloved 14-year-old chocolate labโ€”the true inspiration behind this business and my very best friend โ€” who sadly passed away.

He lived a wonderful, vibrant life, and I am so grateful for every year we shared.

Thank you all so much for your patience, kindness, and understanding as I regroup and gently step back into work. I look forward to connecting with you all again very soon.

๐—œ๐—ฅ๐—ข๐—ก plays a critical role in your dogโ€™s body. Itโ€™s involved in the formation of red blood cells, oxygen transport, COโ‚‚ transport back to the lungs, and energy metabolism. ๐Ÿฉธ

But like many nutrients, balance matters.

A 50lb dog requires roughly 73mg of iron per week. To put that into perspective:

โ€ข 100g raw beef heart = ~4.3mg
โ€ข 100g raw lamb kidney = ~6mg
โ€ข 100g raw 93% lean turkey = ~1mg
โ€ข 100g raw beef spleen = ~45mg ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Dogs absorb iron from animal sources (heme iron) much more efficiently than from plant sources.

Iron also interacts with other nutrients:
๐Ÿ”ƒ Excess iron can inhibit copper and zinc absorption
๐Ÿ”ƒ Excess manganese can interfere with iron absorption
๐Ÿ”ƒ Vitamin C can enhance iron absorption
๐Ÿ”ƒ Digestive tract acidity also affects how well iron is absorbed

Because iron can exist in multiple oxidation states, it can also act as a pro-oxidant in the body. While your dog absolutely needs iron, more is not always better โ€” especially in diets heavily loaded with organs.

And remember: foods donโ€™t contain just one nutrient.

When you add organs to increase iron, youโ€™re also adding copper, phosphorus, purines, vitamin A, and many other nutrients at the same time. This is why evaluating diets based on a single โ€œsuperfoodโ€ or single nutrient can create imbalances elsewhere.

Itโ€™s the overall diet that matters most.
