Proper storage of dog / pet food helps prevent the fats from going rancid and food-borne illnesses. Storing dog food in an air-tight container protects the food from infestation from rodents, molds, and mites. Air-tight containers increase food safety by protecting the dog food from moisture which is required for bacteria and mold to grow.

All non-refrigerated food should be stored in a cool dry location. Store dry kibble by placing the entire bag into an airtight food container, without pouring it out. Pouring out the food exposes it to air which can decrease the foods shelf life and nutritional value. Over time pouring the dry kibble into a food container will result in the oil/fats on the kibble leaving a film on the inside of the container which will go rancid and cause any new kibble poured into the food container going rancid faster. This can be avoided by placing the entire bag into the airtight food container. Shelf life (unopened) • Use by date only applies to unopened bag / can o Can food generally over a year o Dry (kibble) 3-6 months or longer (12mo common) o Raw frozen - 3-4 month shelf life if stored properly Whole raw meats can have up to a 12-months in freezer.
