How to Store Our Treats

A simple rule of thumb in storing My Best Friend’s products is to treat them as you would your own fresh baked goods. Bones, cookies and harder treats will last approximately four to six months. While softer, moist products retain freshness for about a week. We recommend freezing products to extend their freshness for several additional months.
