My little dog can't eat a whole can at one feeding, I save covered in frig but this left over has a bad smell later, she won't eat it. How can I keep

It takes my little Shih Tzu about 4 days to finish a can. When I open the can I scoop all of the food into a plastic Tupperware container with a tight fitting lid and keep it in the fridge. I've never had any issues with it going bad and she has no problem eating ever.

You can divide it in small portions and freeze it. I do that for my small doxie.

I have the same problem. I take out half of the can, put in a plastic container and freeze that. Then the other half is good until he finishes it off.

You could probably try putting one of those stick-like treats in it but it would be hard to clean if any of the treat actually got inside. Perhaps smear it with chicken or beef grease.

I put it in their mouth and hold the mouth shut until it disolves. Under the tongue has never worked for me with a dog. I would see if you can find the liquid or you can make liquid tinctures out of these pellets. Just google how to do it.

A generous half a cup is about all I have ever put in -- when you put in the food, shake it down so they have to work to get it out. My beagle is now an expert in getting food out and is so excited when I get it out. (It is part of her dinner.)

I keep my dog's food sealed in the bag inside the box--she doesn't eat much since she' small--so her food lasts up to six months or so. Dehydrated is the way to go!

To be honest I took one bite and threw the rest out. =") Would double wraping it in foil and then a zip lock freezer bag work? Squeeze the air out of it maybe?

I get a can of science diet dog food beef or chicken gourmet and cut it into three sections. I then quarter each of the three sections. I dice one of the quarters and sprinkle it on that. It doesn't do well on the dry food.

Keep the materials in the little bag, as the rodents will chew through it. We lifted our garbage can "shed" up and threw a few underneath, as we knew that dogs/pets would be unable to get to the bags. A Week later the bags were all torn with the pellets mostly gone..

Definitely check with your vet first! I have a 6lb. chihuahua with a few digestive issues so her vet said to split up packet for two meals. She's doing much better and is a better eater, too!

We have two small dogs as well. They often eat a whole one but you could break them in half.

Yes, when it starts just going back and forth it's time to transfer the mix to a separate container and stick it in the freezer for another couple of hours. Of course, you can eat it as soft serve immediately if you like!

I put it in wet dog food. It started off like it was going to work, but now isn't helping at all. Does this sometimes happen? I'm not sure I want to continue with it after this bottle is gone if it is not working.

I am about out of product.. If you'd like I can put the remainder in the frig and see what happens... I just store it at room temp. Natalie

Nope! The food itself doesn't smell great, (no dog food does) and it might smell a little fishy, but my dogs don't smell bad at all! Since we switched to this dog food their gas doesn't smell bad like it used to either.

I was instructed to do that with any dry food when my dog was a puppy, specially because he has a tendency to not drink a lot of water, so that was a good way of keeping him from dehydration. My dog is 3 years old but I still keep doing that. What I do is add boiled water to the dry food (not only this Merrick one but all other brands that I use), then I wait until it cools down and serve it to my dog. He loves his food like that!

If it is not a big mess. you might try feeding it to birds. They have a hard time getting food in winter sometimes.
