Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise

How long is this good?
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I bought some Entr`ee for dogs from Three Dog Bakery to use as a topping on her kibble. I only use about 1 and 1/2 teaspoons at a time. Its a 12 oz. package. I assume it is like canned dog food. How many days would this stay good in the refrigerator?
