How long does dog food last after opening?

[Gao]

If I put it in the fridge with an air tight rubber cap on the can?

At least 4 or 5 days with sealed cap on

Possably a week

Just going off what folks use to do with a jack russel and 1.2 kg cans of wetdogfood when they gave that as part of the dogs diet

Yep. That's it.
However, our spoiled little guys can tell when it's not freshly opened.
They'll eat it, but they give us the stink eye the whole time and eat with much less enthusiasm.

Thanks! Sadly most of the dog food will be wasted if they spoil that quickly. My skink doesn't each that much

Usually a can of dog food is 400 gram, and my skink really doesn't eat that much, can I freeze it? If I can how long can it last?

Yes you can freeze it. Many people mix up a batch of food and freeze in ice cube trays to thaw as needed. This is a common question so check out these previous threads. You'll find more by typing freeze in the search box.
