How long do opened dog treats stay fresh in an airtight container?

Properly stored, they may last about 8-12 months before becoming stale or contaminated. An air tight container in a dry, dark location is best. Freezing may extend shelf life, especially regarding homemade biscuits. I would hesitate to use biscuits that are two years old regardless of storage method.

My dog's treats got hard in a jar. Are they still safe to feed?

The glass jar may not seal as well as the original packaging in this case. I doubt that it would cause Chloe any harm to feed her these treats, as they are likely just stale. However, I agree that a general rule of thumb is that treats are best fed when they are fresh and able to be broken.

What's the best way to store dog food: bag or airtight container?

Great question! I always keep my dog food in an airtight plastic container. It helps keep it fresh, and the container also prevents any other creatures from getting the food such as insects. I recommend a container. I hope this helps :-)

Do big bags of dog kibble go bad quickly? How long do they last?

Most manufacturers print a "best by" date on the bags of food. Storing the food in its original bag inside an airtight container in a cool, dry area will slow degradation and protect the food from vermin. You may end up spending more money (in the form of wasted or bad food) if you buy too much though.

My dog's treats were in a hot plastic bottle. Are they safe?

Hello! As long as your let the plastic cool down before offering the treat dispenser to Casper (so he doesn't get burner on accident), then the biscuits should be safe to consume. Thank you for using Boop by Petco!
