How long does homemade dog food last?

dog food


I have been reading really scary things about commercial dog foods and have been really considering making my own dog food. I have been doing some research online but can’t seem to find something that tells me how long I can keep the food until it spoils. Any tips on making my own dog food?

    i make my own dog food. i make just enough for it to last two days though. then i make more. the really healthy things to put in dog food is cooked rice,meat,cooked veggies,potatoes and stuff dogs would eat, then put it in a blender and mix it up. add water to dry food mix half your batch with they dry food and water and voila! a luxery meal!

    Depends on what you prepare. I can’t give you any tips on preparing your own dog food, as I don’t think I can do any better than what I’m feeding my dog already. I use CANIDAE All Life Stage Formula. It is an All Natural, All Life Stage, feral type diet that provides optimum nutrition.
