I got mine from Petsmart. Petco and Wal-mart (in the dog section) have nice dog food containers. This will for sure keep the ants out of the food. Also, try getting rid of those nasty ants!! I got ant traps (the ones where the ants take the poisonous food back to the colony) and set them up IN PLACES THE DOGS CANNOT GET TO..and we have no more ants. And my dogs are just fine. I even called the vet to make sure this was ok..he said to make sure the dog’s absolutely cannot get to the ant traps. So place them where the dogs wont go.

you know those massive tupperwears that you get at like costco or whatever? we used to use that when i had my dog! we lived in a small town where stuff like dog food was hard to find, tere was only one place that sold it and it was crazy expensive, so we had to drive 45 min to the next town to get some, sooo, we used to just buy the biggest bags we could every time to save us the trip, and dump the whole thing into those containers, never had a problem with ants ever!

When I lived where we had ants, I kept the dog food in a freezer. Why not have a professional exterminator come out and spray for the ants?
