📦 6. How should I store The Chosen Spot K9 Kitchen’s treats?

To keep our treats fresh and safe, store them in a cool, dry place away from heat and sunlight. All treats come in resealable, food-safe kraft pouches designed to maintain shelf life and prevent moisture buildup.

Do not refrigerate. Refrigeration can introduce condensation, soften the texture, and reduce product quality.

Check regularly for freshness. While our treats are dehydrated for shelf stability (60–90 days), always inspect for signs of spoilage such as mold, odor, or discoloration.

📦 Pro tip: For long-term storage, you can freeze our treats for up to 6 months. Just thaw to room temperature before serving.

Following these simple steps ensures your dog’s favorite treats stay safe, crunchy, and full of flavor — right to the last bite.
