What do you store dog food in? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I use the Food Saver for all Toto's food ... dry kibble and fresh that's kept in the freezer. I just measure it up in bags ... about a week's worth per bag ... the Food Saver removes all air and it stays fresh. It's also really handy for travelling!

I use a plastic pretzel container. It is shaped like a barrel and it is clear with a flip top lid. It holds my 5-6 lb bag of food perfect. I got it at Wal-Mart and it was very inexpensive. I keep it in my pantry and I keep a mug in there to dip out the food. Just flip up the lid and scoop it up and then just push the lid back down. The whole lip also screws on and then the flip top has hindges on one side so it is always attached. I love it and it is perfect for us and anyone that buys the smaller bags of food. I will post a pic if I get time.

I just keep it in the bag in another bag and close that. I did see this Dog food container at Han Nari though, it was so cute and it said something on it. I am going to get that, cause i have a lot of food, i buy the big bags.

I use one of the square tupperware storage containers. It holds a 3 lb bag of food perfectly.

I use a plastic air tight container that has 2 covers on it specially made for pet foods, it holds a nice 6# bag of dry kibbles nicely.
