Liver is an organ where even a small amount moves the nutrition numbers a great deal. Vitamin A and copper in particular tend to accumulate in the body, so use it as part of the meal, not as the main meat.
Some breeds are known to accumulate copper in the liver, so for dogs that fit, take care that copper-rich ingredients do not appear day after day.
Products sold for the human table, such as from supermarkets, should be cooked through to the center before feeding. Products sold as raw food for dogs should be used as directed on that product.
