Improper Food Storage

Toxic pet food caused the recent deaths of more than 100 dogs nationwide. But improper food storage and handling at home can also threaten your pet’s health.
Sometimes people buy too much pet food so that it will last six months. But within a few months, it isn’t very fresh anymore, and some of the vitamins and nutrients are starting to break down over time. A better strategy is to buy only enough to last 2-4 weeks. Pet food should be stored in an airtight, hard-plastic or metal container. Paper bags are subject to insect and rodent infestations. Pet food shouldn’t be stored near stoves, hot water pipes or heating ducts. Heat and moisture can cause food to lose quality much faster.
