If your dog is unfamiliar with the product, always watch them initially and supervise their chewing. The best storage solution for these chews is to be stored in a bag in the freezer (extends shelf life 2 years). The second best is to be bagged in the refrigerator (extends shelf life 1 year). Third is in a non-humid area away from sunlight. Keeping these chews bagged will help prevent oxidation. This is a food product. If it is treated like food, it can last a long time. These are safe to store in the cupboard or pantry but should be fed within 4 months of purchase.
