“Shelf life” of kibble varies…I’ve seen anywhere from 12 months to 18 months, some even longer. However, that’s only for an unopened bag. Once opened, life goes down dramatically. I certainly wouldn’t buy any more than what I could feed my dogs in a month. I know that buying in larger quantities saves money, but if the food goes rancid before you can get through it, it’s really not a savings.
