FAQs

How long does a Yakers Himalayan Dog Chew typically last?

The longevity varies greatly depending on the dog's size, breed, and chewing intensity. For large breeds, an X-Large bar can last for many hours, often spread over several days.

Can puppies chew on these Himalayan dog chews?

Yes, Yakers Himalayan Dog Chews are suitable for dogs as young as 4 months old. However, supervision is crucial to ensure they are not attempting to swallow large pieces, especially with younger or smaller puppies.

What makes these chews low-fat?

The traditional Himalayan cheese-making process results in a low-fat product. The chews are made from skimmed yak and cow milk, with most of the fat removed.

How do I store the dog chews?

Store unused chews in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original packaging or an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent moisture absorption.

What should I do with the small end piece of the chew?

When the chew becomes small enough to be swallowed whole, it's time to discard it to prevent choking hazards. Some owners like to save these small ends and puff them up in the microwave (with caution and supervision) to create a crunchy treat, but ensure it cools completely before giving it to your dog.

Are there any ingredients I should be concerned about?

These chews are made from a simple list of ingredients: yak milk, cow milk, salt, and lime juice. They are natural and free from artificial colours, flavours, and preservatives. However, always monitor your dog for any adverse reactions.

Can these chews help with boredom?

Absolutely. The long-lasting nature of these chews provides excellent mental stimulation and can significantly help combat boredom and prevent destructive chewing behaviours.

Troubleshooting

Dog is not interested in the chew

Try warming the chew slightly with a little warm water or unsalted broth to enhance the scent. Ensure the dog is in a relaxed environment and not distracted by other toys or activities.

Dog is trying to swallow large pieces

Immediately remove the chew. Consider breaking off smaller pieces (if safe to do so without creating a choking hazard) or switching to a smaller size chew. Always supervise chewing.

Digestive upset (vomiting or diarrhea)

Remove the chew and consult with your veterinarian. Introduce new chews gradually and in moderation, especially for dogs with sensitive stomachs.

Chew is too hard for my dog

This is common with Himalayan chews. For smaller dogs or those with dental issues, consider softening the chew by soaking the end in warm water for a few minutes, or switch to a softer type of chew.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These chews require no setup. Simply provide the chew to your dog. Ensure the dog is in an appropriate area where it can chew comfortably and any small remnants can be easily cleaned up.

Compatibility:

  • Age: Suitable for dogs aged 4 months and older.
  • Size: The X-Large size is recommended for large to giant breeds. Always supervise smaller breeds to ensure the chew is appropriate for their size and chewing strength.
  • Dietary Needs: Generally well-tolerated, but monitor for any signs of digestive upset, especially if your dog has a sensitive stomach. It is a low-fat option, suitable for dogs on a controlled diet.

Care:

  • Cleaning: These chews are naturally hygienic and require no cleaning. If the chew becomes wet or dirty, it can be rinsed under cool water and dried thoroughly before returning it to your dog.
  • Storage: Store unused chews in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the packaging is sealed to maintain freshness.
  • Supervision: Always supervise your dog while they are chewing to prevent choking hazards, especially if they tend to swallow large pieces. Remove the chew if it becomes small enough to be swallowed whole.
