Turkey & Pumpkin – Meal Storage Tips
Keeping your homemade turkey dog food and pumpkin fresh is key for your dog’s health. It’s important to cool down freshly-cooked meals before putting them in the fridge. This stops mold from growing due to condensation.
For Turkey & Pumpkin dishes, keeping them cold is crucial. Put them in an airtight container, and they can stay fresh for up to 3 days in the fridge. To keep them longer, you can freeze the food. Use zip-lock bags, squeeze out the air to avoid freezer burn, and keep them frozen for up to 3 months. Always thaw these meals in the fridge before giving them to your dog.
It’s vital to know when food goes bad. Look out for any bad smells, color changes, or odd textures. Storing turkey dog food correctly means it will stay rich in protein. Properly kept pumpkin will keep aiding your dog’s digestion. By following these steps, your dog will enjoy safe and healthy meals.
