I agree--labeling is extremely important so that people know what they are feeding their dogs. There are, in fact, labeling requirements that one is supposed to follow when making/manufacturing feed for animals, including dog treats. In addition to the ingredient list and guaranteed analysis, you are also required to include directions for use and storage.
The ones I make haven't gotten moldy for up to 2 months after they are baked. I store them for Max and Abbie in airtight containers and they are fine but I don't have cheese or meat in mine, either. Any homebaked treats with meat or cheese should definitely be refrigerated.
