Keep food stored in original bag, inside airtight container
There are numerous articles about the best way to store your pup’s food, and this is the way we chose. By keeping the dog food in the bag it comes in (which is specifically made to tolerate & keep the ingredients) and also sealing it up in an airtight container, the food will last longer, not leave the container messy, and keep bugs/pests out. The food we feed our lab is pretty rich (compared to the old dog food we fed our dogs 20 years ago!) and has lots of fats from the fish that were leaving a brown oily gunk behind in the container. We felt it was unsanitary to ignore it, but also didn’t want to deal with washing out the container in the bathtub every 4 weeks.
This container is the PERFECT solution for us. It is narrow enough to fit in our pantry space, and the perfect fit for the 25lb bag of food we buy. (Pictured: Partially eaten bag of food, container without the wheels)
