The Original Himalayan Dog Chew is a very long lasting dog chew. Himalayan Dog Chews are made by boiling yak and cow milk and then dried for several weeks to create a hard chew. Dogs must work the end of the treat for hours, softening it with their mouths before small parts of it can be slowly scraped off. It is 100-percent natural with no preservatives. It is an authentic type of cheese eaten by the people of the Himalayas. When you give this Himalayan Dog Chew to your dog, you know that you are providing them with hours of high quality eating entertainment. Packaged by weight, quantities and size vary.

Worth every penny! Long lasting ‘Yak Cheese’ dog chews
Our dog absolutely adores these ‘Himalayan Dog’ Chew Yak Cheese chews and they are worth every penny. He’s a goldendoodle and has been a bit of a super-chewer since his adult teeth came in last winter. We noticed how quickly he was going through No-Hide chews & bully sticks and wanted to find a more economical and longer-lasting alternative that would be safe* (*DO always supervise your pet with treats & chew toys like these) and gentle on his belly. Out of the package, these ‘chews’ are rock hard (they’re meant to be)âthey feel like a hard sugar candy and have a light ‘cheesy’ smell that will likely appeal to your pup. (It’s not overwhelming.) Your dog will gradually chip small pieces off and be able to crunch them up, but they shouldn’t be able to crack the whole thing in half. But like a hard candy, it will shatter into smaller pieces if hit with enough force. You can actually microwave pieces of Yak Chew and in about 30-60 seconds it will PUFF into a cheese puff that your dog can crunch up as a snack! (*It will be hot. Let cool fully before giving to your pup!) This is a great way to use up the end of the chew when it gets too small & becomes a choking hazard. Microwaving a Yak Chew releases all its cheesy aromas during the puff processâfair warning, your dog will be VERY interested in the smell. These have been a winner in our house and usually last for a couple weeks before the dog whittles them down. Once it’s small enough (or if a large piece breaks off), we pop it into the microwave and our little buddy gets a cheese puff treat. Win-win!

Great for my chewer!
My pug is a MAJOR chewer. I wasn’t feeling great about all the vinyl in bark boxes, or antlers being SO impossibly tough. He will devour bully sticks in a matter of an hour, and he gnaws like crazy. I was looking for something that would ultimately satiate his chewing without being plastic, or so hard it would break his little teeth. These are PERFECT. He’s a 20 lb pug and one of these lasts a good 2-3 weeks. Highly recommend!

Great chews
My dog loves these and they last quite awhile, unlike other chews. The reason I took off one star is because the last batch I got broke apart in shards – not sure if they were old?? I couldn’t exchange or return this item so I may buy at the pet store instead just in case I get another bad batch.

Fun chew

Hard chews
These are the hard yak chews, suitable for aggressive chewers, which tend to be very expensive. I get them when they go on sale and they last my aggressive chewing pugs for weeks. I would just recommend removing the chew once it gets down to swallowing size, just in case. I’ve seen my pugs still try to work the chew when it’s small enough to fit the whole thing in their mouths. I worry they might swallow it, so I take it from them at that point.

Smells Like Chemicals
We order these for our frenchie, he loves them, and we order them, usually a couple bags at a time. The past two orders(of a couple bags each), I have noticed two different smells.1st Smell: when I opened the shipping Amazon envelope(blue and white padded ones), there is a pungent and in your face odor of dryer sheets or some kind of air freshener. I assumed(feeling silly now after doing my research) in the beginning that it might have just been stored in a warehouse next to something that has this odor. I assumed that the bags were sealed so it couldnât harm our little fur-buddy. But now Iâm realizing, itâs to cover up the second smell(below) and to say Iâm concerned is putting it lightly, as he has been getting these chew sticks for months.2nd Smell: Several weeks after they arrive, itâs usually time for us to open a new bag. Upon several occasions, I have opened the bag and been met with a crazy chemical or organic matter smell. It was hard to say without knowing what it was and again, we assumed given the ingredients(cheese, salt and lime juice) that it might have just been a natural reaction and we assumed because our dog was still interested in them the same way he was a treat, that it probably was safe(because it didnât taste like chemicals- naïve, I know). After reading the other reviews from purchasers, I agree, it could very well be a mold or mildew smell. Needless to say, we wonât be ordering these from Amazon again until they change their return policy, especially when the reason is questioning the SAFETY of an item. I have always had good luck with Amazon customer service so I am at a loss as to how this could go unchecked. I would assume that if more than a couple people are coming forward to say something is wrong with the product, they would want to figure out whatâs happening.Just a couple further details- I have received several variations in the color of the cheese chews, ALL with this smell. They do vary in size, appearance, and durability. The most common two variations in our experience are: a) Some are very light yellow, long and skinny and they chip into big sharp pieces. Or b) they are a dark greyish yellow/brown, they feel much more dense and are thicker/shorter. They do not seem to chip, but they do seem to be harder to chew. Our frenchie(heavy chewer), only seems to finish the lighter/less dense/but unfortunately ones that chip.I hope this was helpful to someone. Please Amazon, figure out what the smell is, for the safety of our fur-friends!

Beware
My bloodhound loves these. Unfortunately last pack I got was a bunch of small pieces and essentially junk. Very expensive for waste.

No bone/chewing thingy lasts more than 5min with our pooch. I absolutely adore these yak chews. They are long (6â), and thick (1.5â). Very grateful for this product, pooch loves them!

Fantastic chews, expensive, shame they are not marketed here by company to get the price down! I found these in the USA , bought them home and my puppy loves them, it’s taken 4 weeks and still my dog hasn’t made a huge dent in it , it keeps her amused for hours and doesn’t upset her stomach, considering how sharp her puppy teeth are its great they last so long and they do help to stop her chewing other things!

These are wonderful. I bought a pack of three and my terrier is still on the first one which has about an inch left. She’s 6mths now and it did take her a while to be able to chew it so I probably should have bought her the thinner ones. But know her jaw is strong enough she’s getting on really well with it. It keeps her occupied for ages, grating off the tiny little bits. Happy to recommend to those who have dogs that very quickly chew everything you give them. They make a nice change from meat products.

I have two dogs, a one-year-old 35 pound, and a six-year-old 25 pound. Both are very aggressive chewers and I find these work great. I have a “routine” that seems to work well: 1) I store them in the fridge so they are even harder, and 2) I only let them chew them for 20-30 mins per night. After the chew session, I collect them and put them in a ziplock and back in the fridge. In this way, the dogs get three or four nights of chewing fun. They enjoy them, they are much safer than a lot of other chew items, and you can microwave the leftover nubs to feed them as cheese once they cool (be careful because they are too hot to give them right after heating). I believe they are worth the price, but I wish they came in a four-pack! I am a bit distressed that the price has gone up 15% in the past week, though.

I’m not sure how long it was supposed to last, but with my super chewer it was down to the the last couple of inches in a couple of days. On the whole, that’s not bad. My dog loved it, but was less enthused when we soaked and microwaved the last bit. It sounds a little scary when she’s chewing it because it cracks as she chews. I would buy these again.
