FAQs

How long do YAKERS Himalayan Dog Chew Bars typically last?

The longevity varies greatly depending on the dog's size, breed, and chewing intensity. For some dogs, they can last for several days of intermittent chewing.

Are these chews safe for puppies?

Yes, YAKERS Himalayan Dog Chew Bars are suitable for dogs as young as 4 months old. They provide a good outlet for teething puppies, but supervision is always recommended.

What are the main nutritional benefits?

They are rich in protein for muscle development and repair, and calcium for strong bones and teeth. They are also a low-fat option.

How do these chews help with dental hygiene?

The hard texture and the dog's gnawing action help to scrape away plaque and tartar from the teeth and gums, promoting better oral health naturally.

What should I do if the chew becomes small?

When the chew becomes small enough to be swallowed whole, it's time to discard it to prevent choking. Alternatively, you can soak the remnant in water and freeze it for a longer-lasting, lickable treat.

Can my dog get bored of these chews?

While designed for long-lasting engagement, some dogs might eventually lose interest. Rotating chews with other toys or treats can help maintain novelty.

What is the 'smoky flavor' derived from?

The smoky flavor is achieved through a traditional smoking process of the hardened cheese, which is a natural part of the Himalayan yak cheese making.

Troubleshooting

Dog is not interested in the chew

Ensure you have chosen the correct size and flavor. Some dogs may need time to get used to a new type of chew. Try introducing it when the dog is slightly hungry or bored.

Dog is breaking off large pieces

Immediately remove the chew and provide a smaller size or a softer treat. This indicates the chew may be too hard for your dog's chewing style or mouth.

Chew seems too hard for my dog

Consider soaking the end of the chew in warm water for a minute or two to soften it slightly, making it more palatable and less likely to cause dental discomfort. Always supervise.

My dog swallowed a small piece

Monitor your dog closely for any signs of distress, vomiting, or difficulty passing stool. If concerned, contact your veterinarian.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: YAKERS Himalayan Dog Chew Bars require no setup. Simply present the chew to your dog. Ensure you choose the appropriate size for your dog's breed and chewing strength.

Compatibility: Suitable for dogs of all breeds and sizes aged 4 months and older. However, supervision is recommended, especially for dogs prone to aggressive chewing or those with known dental issues. If your dog has very sensitive teeth or a very soft bite, consider softer chew alternatives.

Care:

  1. Supervision: Always supervise your dog when they are chewing any treat, especially hard chews.
  2. Cleaning: These chews are naturally cleaned by saliva during chewing. If a chew becomes dirty, it can be wiped with a damp cloth.
  3. Storage: Store unused chew bars in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  4. End of Chew: When the chew becomes small enough to be swallowed whole, discard it. You can soak the remaining piece in water for a few minutes and then freeze it to create a longer-lasting, lickable treat, or simply throw it away to prevent choking.
