How long does homemade dog food last?

I have been reading really scary things about commercial dog foods and have been really considering making my own dog food. I have been doing some research online but can't seem to find something that tells me how long I can keep the food until it spoils. Any tips on making my own dog food?

1. it depends what is in it.
2. i make my own dog food. i make just enough for it to last two days though. then i make more. the really healthy things to put in dog food is cooked rice,meat,cooked veggies,potatoes and stuff dogs would eat, then put it in a blender and mix it up. add water to dry food mix half your batch with they dry food and water and voila! a luxery meal!
3. Well my freind makes her own dog food. she just makes it every week. But it really depends on whats in it.
4. Depends on what you prepare. I can't give you any tips on preparing your own dog food, as I don't think I can do any better than what I'm feeding my dog already.
