How long can this last without refrigerator? I want to leave 2 servings at different places during my travels so my puppy wont go hungry for 8 hours

I'm sure it would be fine. Sometimes my dog doesn't eat and he leaves it for later. I would not leave for much more than the 8 hours, though, especially if the weather is really warm.

Because of the chicken based content I would not trust it. You may be better off just picking up some of those small single serving dog food containers that have just enough for a single serving of a small dog; larger dog? give them two, etc.

Just basically my husband and myself and we've had several meals out of it and our puppies enjoyed some broth. The small one would probably be enough unless you plan on entertaining or packing up the freezer. Enjoy it! I think we will be using it quite often.

I have stored it overnight, however, what I usually do is cool what is left over in the refrigerator, then I cut it into pieces and wrap in plastic wrap then place into a freeqer bag. I have been doing this and it is always delicious. Good luck, Andi

It does need to be refrigerated, I do not no about shelf life, I do know it did not work for my dog.

I gave it to my dog for about 2 months and she seemed to be a little better but now I am not giving it her she has reverted back to eating poop. It seems to be a habit that is hard to break the vet told me to put meat tenderizer in her meals but I don't think that worked either. Someone told me not to pick up and put hot chili sauce on it and when they go to eat it it taste bad and that sometimes helps. We pick up all the time but if there is one lot out there she finds it, we tell her off but she still does it. I am told it is a natural thing but I have never had a dog that did it before, so very frustrating. Sorry I haven't been much help but that's my experience.

Definitely. I foster for a Rottweiler rescue organization and take care of all ages, from 6 weeks old to adults. All of them are on Taste of the Wild (TOW puppy food for the youngsters). To transition to any new food, always mix the foods to avoid digestive upsets: (Example) 25% new food for 2 days; then 50% new food for 2 days; then 75% new food for 2 days. This is just a guide; if signs of soft stools or diarrhea, stay with the low % of the new food for additional days.

If you follow the directions of using 8 table spoon per serving, then it would last for about a week. Once the first couple of weeks, you start eating a light meal per day, then it will last a little longer.

I'm not home to check but I think there's an expiration date. I can't keep it in the house very long because the dogs love it. It does not need to be refrigerated until opened. After opening keep cool and sealed so it doesn't get dried out. I have had an open roll in the fridge up to 2 weeks with no spoilage. I would feel safe having it on the shelf for at least 2 months regardless of what the label says.

Two years at room temp (it will darken) at least, indefinitely in the fridge. The paste is quite acidic so it isnt prone to spoilage.

I'm not sure. Honestly, it never lasts long enough to have to refrigerate. It's always gone by the end of the evening. Sorry! If it ever lasts long enough to refrigerate, I will try to update.

I leave them out 5-6 at a time all the time for my shih tzu. As long as they stay dry they have lasted for weeks. They are freeze dried - key is keep them dry. Normal home humidity that you would be comfortable seems to be ok. Keep a bowl of water handy. After eating 4-5 at a time my dog always goes for a drink to wash them down. Great natural food made in USA free of any dangerous chemicals that are found in treats made in China. (melamine poisoning) Come well package I purchase a case at a time. Made in Wisconsin.

I buy the 1lb size and it clearly states on the label to keep it in a cool, dry place, which is what I do. I have 2 dogs and feed 1 tsp daily total also. I see no need for refrigeration and do not worry about shelf life.

They have an excellent website that will answer all your questions. But as I understand it...it will not go bad if left unrefrigerated BUT it is best if you freeze the unused portion...leaving it out will not make it go bad...refrigeration is good of course...freezing it is best/ I take the powder to work with me...it is unrefrigerated for 12 plus hours and it is fine.

You might be able to fit a tiny amount of food, but the zipper is pretty tight when you zip it up empty. I would say you would want to wait so your pup can get a full serving.

I do store it in the refrigerator, but I've been told since 1990s that it is not required. I do NOT travel without it! You can take it if you experience a bad food episode. Since I have the sensitive stomach of the family, I can testify it helped me on one trip. You take one or two capsules every 15 minutes or so until your trouble is over one way or the other. This is not to keep anyone from going to the ER for serious cases, but mine are usually not that serious. My husband took it one time and found relief also.

We keep it in a zip lock bag with the air pressed out. I can say it lasts at least 7-10 days, but we usually have it all eaten by the 10th.

I keep mine in the refrigerator once opened which the company prefers. However, if it is kept in a cool dry place it should be fine (per Amazing Grass). I have traveled with mine at room temp for short periods of time with no problems...even after is has been stored cold.
