  • Does Puppy Chow need to be refrigerated?
  • You can store Puppy Chow at room temperature for a few days, but you can also refrigerate it and it will last for up to a week.
  • Can you freeze Puppy Chow?
  • Yes, you can freeze it! Store it in an airtight container and pop it in the freezer. You can leave it out at room temperature to thaw it, but I know people who actually like it straight from the freezer!
