Help gassy pets, bringing guts out for both (5)
I believe the answer is:
asset
'help' is the definition.
(an asset can be a help)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for asset that I've seen before include "One bringing benefit" , "Useful item" , "Anything of value" , "Valuable possession, worth having" , "Tessa (anag)" .)
