🧊 Safety & Storage
Refrigerate portions in airtight containers for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Always thaw frozen portions in the refrigerator overnight. Wash hands and all surfaces thoroughly after handling raw chicken. Never feed hot food to your dog.
⚠️ Recipe Drift Warning
Do not substitute chicken with ground beef or pork without recalculating fat content. Avoid using white rice exclusively as it lacks the fiber and nutrients of brown rice. Do not omit supplements—they are essential for calcium, vitamin, and mineral balance. Adding garlic, onions, grapes, or xylitol is toxic to dogs.
