Storage Guide
Homemade dog treats don’t have preservatives — which is amazing for your pup’s health, but means they must be stored correctly.
Storage Method
How Long
Notes
Counter (airtight jar)
3–4 days
Best for crunchy biscuits. Store in cool/dry spot.
Fridge
5–7 days
Keeps them fresh + soft. Store in airtight glass container for best texture.
Freezer
2 months
Freeze in small batches or single layers. Thaw only the portion you need.
Freezing Tip: You can freeze the dough before baking too. Roll it and cut shapes, freeze in bags, then bake fresh as needed ✅
Serving from Freezer: Let treats thaw 5–10 minutes at room temp. No heating needed — warm treats = burned noses 😅
💡 Best Storage Containers
Mason jars
Silicone freezer bags
BPA-free airtight snack boxes
Reusable glass jars w/ lids
This keeps treats fresh, prevents sogginess, and maintains their cute shapes.
Dog-Safe Notes
We love dogs like family — so treat safety matters.
❌ Avoid:
Sweetened applesauce
Cinnamon, nutmeg or pumpkin pie spice
Wheat or grain flours (this is grain-free batch!)
Xylitol (deadly to dogs — check peanut butter labels)
Honey/syrups for senior or diabetic dogs
✅ Do:
Use unsweetened applesauce
Start with tiny portions if your dog is new to these ingredients
Break into small bites for toy breeds
Keep treats under 10% of daily calories
👶 For Puppies:Use the soft-baked recipes & break VERY small pieces.
🦴 For Seniors: Choose softer recipes or bake a few minutes less.
💧 Hydration Tip: Treats with coconut flour absorb moisture — always ensure fresh water is available.
