Our smoked dog bones are completely cured and can be stored at room temperature for periods of time by leaving them in mesh bag in which they come, which allows for fresh air circulation. Our bones can also be refrigerated or frozen to preserve freshness. However, since our bones are so fresh and still maintain some moisture, it is not best to seal them up and store them in a zip lock style bag. Doing so can create a very humid environment which creates some prime real estate for mold spores in the air, to put down roots and grow. If you like to stock up for a month or more, that's perfectly fine. As long as our bones are not in a small sealed environment and are given open air circulation, they should remain fresh and there should be no worries of mold growth on our product.
We are not willing to dry our bones to the point of removing all the moisture for two reasons: 1) fear that it will weaken the integrity of the bones and 2) palatability for your dog. Your dog will truly appreciate the latter!
Please contact us if you have any specific questions about storing you dog's bones.
