How to Store Preservative-Free Homemade Dog Treats: Fridge & Freezer Guide

How to Store Preservative-Free Homemade Dog Treats: Fridge & Freezer Guide

Why Preservative-Free Dog Treats Need Refrigeration

Unlike mass-produced commercial dog biscuits that sit on warehouse shelves for months using synthetic preservatives, Lunar Treats are baked fresh to order in our London, Kentucky kitchen from real, recognizable ingredients like pumpkin puree, roasted peanut butter, Greek yogurt, blueberries, and egg.

Because our recipes contain zero artificial preservatives, moisture-rich ingredients like real pumpkin and Greek yogurt must be stored properly as soon as your package arrives.

Refrigerator Storage (3–5 Days)

  1. Refrigerate Immediately Upon Arrival: Place your treats in the refrigerator as soon as your delivery arrives or after local pickup in London, KY.
  2. Keep the Pouch Sealed: Every order arrives in a clear stand-up resealable pouch. Press the zip closure firmly shut after each serving so your treats don't dry out or absorb refrigerator odors.
  3. Enjoy Within 3–5 Days: Refrigerated treats stay at peak texture and freshness for 3 to 5 days.

Freezer Storage (Up to 1 Month)

Ordering multiple bags to unlock free US shipping on orders of $35+? Freezing is the easiest way to stock up:

  • Freeze right in the resealable pouch for up to 1 month.
  • Portion out what you need: Move a few days' worth of Peanut Butter Eclipse or Harvest Moon Rolls to the refrigerator to thaw overnight.
  • Slicing Birthday Cakes: If you order our Whole Dog Birthday Cake, slice leftover portions after the party, wrap them tightly, and freeze individual slices for future rewards.
