Himalayan Dog Chew Original Yak Cheese Chew, 3 Small Sticks, 1.1 oz, Gluten Free, Healthy Treats, Grain & Lactose Free 100% Natural, Long Lasting for Dogs Under 15 lbs

My pit pups absolutely love these chews. Each one lasts about 1–2 days, which is impressive for strong chewers. They do leave small crumbs around, but honestly, that’s a fair trade-off because they choose these over chewing furniture. I’ve tried a few similar products, and this is the only brand they consistently like, especially the peanut butter flavor. They’ve been eating these chews since they were about 6 weeks old, (Now 14 weeks) and we’ve had no digestion issues. Overall, great value, great flavor, and a lifesaver for redirecting chewing behavior. Highly recommend, especially for pit pups or other strong chewers.

I think Himalayan Dog Chews are just the coolest thing. I sincerely get a kick out of these guys. They are so simple yet so unique, and most importantly, they make my dogs happy. If you're toying with the idea of buying these, I *highly* recommend that you do. I spoil my dogs rotten and experiment with all kind of treats and toys, and these are really, really impressive. For dog and owner both. The bigger sizes can be pricey, but I'd buy. Utterly worth it. Luckily, I have littles, and for some reason, the bitty ones are a better value. Ounce by ounce the cost is the same, but with the little ones you get several treats instead of one. I love that, compared to virtually every other chew on the market, these things make *no mess* and have *no odor*. They are a good shape and size for handling and chewing. The small ones are heck to step on in bare feet, but it's a risk I'm willing to take. My 12 lb papillon and 15 lb chunky dachshund can get a nice firm grip on a chew and spend a pleasant afternoon with it and there will still be enough for another go. I do take them away when they reach choking-hazard size, and I wish I didn't have to, but I get nervous. They are rocks, after all. But they don't go to waste: I save them up to give to my uncle's 4 pound mini Yorkie, because then they're normal-sized for her teeny mouth. These treats are fun to tell your friends about. Doesn't "Himalayan Dog Chew" sound impressive? Far classier than "pizzle sticks"! Those things are the antithesis of these elegant treats. I call them "cheese" as in "Do you want your cheese?" "Where's your cheese?" "Quit burying your cheese in my pillow." Finally, and this is important, regarding my "toothless wonder" reference in my title: The papillon, Gigi, is missing a whopping 9 teeth. (Side note: Little dogs are at great risk for dental problems; get their teeth cleaned yearly!) She gamely tries to enjoy other chew treats, with some measure of success. But these are perfect for her, because she can just gum one kinda like a zwieback and get all the maximum goodness. If you have a dog missing teeth, they can get real pleasure out of these. The action of chewing combined with yumminess. It's a special joy to see her loving it. Gigi's my miracle dog. She's been paralyzed twice, had seizures, pneumonia, been bitten by a Brown Recluse, and has congestive heart disease. To see her settle down with a Himalayan Dog Chew and enjoy one of life's simple pleasures is one of *my* life's simple pleasures. Now you know why I spoil them.

My dog absolutely loves these. And he is so picky. I bought my first pack through another company and was so pleased I decided to check out Amazons prices. They are a dollar cheaper, which is ok but I avoid shipping that other company charges. I ordered small for my Cavapoo who is 13# and a very aggressive chewer, but will order medium size next time. I like them longer since he wraps his paws around them to chew. If a dog loves cheese, he will really like these. They are a top rated snack and last several days. When your dog chews it down to a nub, too small to hold on to, the company has a recipe on package telling you have to make a cheese puff. That way you don’t chance them choking on the small piece and they get an extra treat.

I have five Mini Aussies (mom and four babies), and I have tried many Yak Cheese brands for the last three years (they'll be four years old in March). The different brands would sometimes smell weird, not like cheese at all. I settled on a brand that was "okay" for my last 6 or so orders. The dogs take the chews tentatively, and they take a little while to start to chew on them. The smell out of the package is not very good. I leave them out of the packaging to be in the open air to try to improve the desirability. Once they've got one end softened with their saliva, they do pretty well. I saw the Himalayan Chew Original Yak Cheese in the Bacon flavor in the small size, so I ordered three packages. They arrived a couple days ago. When I opened the packages my dogs eagerly took them and started enthusiastically chewing. My dogs are aggressive chewers, and about 30 pounds average. They went through the small size a little quicker than the other brands, but they loved the bacon flavor a lot more. The small comes three to a package, so I have to order at least two packages so everyone gets one initially. I ordered three packages so I'd initially have the five to give out, then a few extras to give out later. The price is so-so, kind of expensive, but a deal breaker. I just ordered the medium size, which is a better size for them, but they only come one per package, and that makes five pretty pricey. That's why I took off one star in the rating. They need to offer some bulk choices at a better price. I waivered before ordering, but decided my babies are spoiled, so I'll try this size and see how we do with them. These are the best of about five or six other brands we've tried. I'd recommend them if you have fewer dogs than me, the they are not aggressive chewers.

My dogs LOVE these! Keeps them occupied for a while so I can get things done around the house. My boys love these assortment and peanut butter & bacon the most. Have been buying for years!

These are really small - 3 for $14

For a cavapoo, these are perfect and truly long lasting. These have lasted longer than any other edible chew and he is an aggressive chewer. The chew did not break apart in pieces either, he really just whittled it down to a nub.

SUPER DANGEROUS PRODUCT, DO NOT BUY! I do not typically write reviews, however after recent events (and after going back and reading reviews warning of additional dangers), I felt obligated to post a review warning others about just what a horribly dangerous product this is! We have 3 small pups of varying ages (the youngest is 2) and we have been giving them the yak milk treats for about 2 years, after receiving recommendations about the safety and efficacy against tooth disease that the yak milks provided. Our dogs loved them. Fast forward to our annual vet, which took place earlier visit this year this week, when we were informed that during the routine teeth cleaning and descaling of our two oldest pups, molar fractures - down to the root, thereby necessitating extraction ($$$$) - were found in both dogs' x-rays. Immediately the vet inquired about any hard bones or toys they had been chewing to have incurred such serious dental damage. The yak milk chews were clearly to blame here, as they are the only hard things our dogs chew on, the rest of their toys being soft, stuffed animals or balls. I returned home and immediately collected all yak milk chews, and threw away 3 brand new packages. I made a visit to the same local pet food store that originally recommended these and they informed me that they no longer carry the Himalayan brand of the yak chews for this reason. This is apparently a very common complaint about this brand! Today, in what I hope will be the final chapter of what has become an epic saga related to these horrible "treats", I learned that my 2 year old pup also has a severely fractured molar and will also require a costly (and completely needless) extraction. I honestly feel fortunate to have escaped with what (in light of others' nightmare surgeries they've had to endure as a result of pups swallowing large, undigestable chunks that become lodged in parts of their babies' internal organs!!!) only minor dental damage ... although the damage to our bank account is not at all an insignificant amount ($1500 for 2 dogs and 1 more to go). I am beyond upset and gobsmacked at the apparent lack of oversight on pet products! Please be warned - these are NOT at all safe. Do not buy these for you pups. Getting the word out via these reviews seems to be the only recourse we have at this time, but if we can save others from the pain and expense of having to deal with unnecessary surgeries, it will have been a worthwhile 20 minutes spent writing this review.
