Product Information

Full details

The Yakers Dog Chew - Small - 2 Pack is designed for small to medium-sized dogs seeking a long-lasting, natural chew. Its primary benefit is providing extended engagement and promoting dental health. A potential consideration is that due to its hardness, it may not be suitable for dogs with very sensitive teeth. This chew is crafted from a blend of skimmed yak and cow milk, with added lime juice and salt to harden it, then smoke-dried for 28 days, resulting in a unique flavor and durable texture.

FAQs

What are Yakers Dog Chews made of?

Yakers are made from a blend of skimmed yak and cow milk, with a small amount of lime juice and salt added to harden the milk. They are then smoke-dried for 28 days.

Are Yakers suitable for all dog breeds?

The 'Small' size is best suited for small to medium-sized dogs. Larger breeds may require larger Yakers chews. Always choose a size appropriate for your dog to prevent choking hazards.

How long does a Yakers chew typically last?

The duration varies greatly depending on the dog's chewing intensity and habits. However, they are designed to be extra long-lasting, often keeping dogs engaged for extended periods.

Can Yakers help with dental hygiene?

Yes, the hard texture of Yakers can help to scrape away plaque and tartar as the dog chews, which contributes to cleaner teeth and healthier gums.

Are there any preservatives or gluten in Yakers?

No, Yakers are 100% natural, preservative-free, and gluten-free.

What should I do if my dog breaks off a large piece?

If your dog breaks off a large piece that could be a choking hazard, safely remove it from your dog. Supervise your dog closely during chewing and consider a different type of treat if this is a recurring issue.

How should I store Yakers dog chews?

Unopened chews should be stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, store any remaining chew in an airtight container in a dry environment.

Troubleshooting

Dog is not interested in the chew.

Some dogs may require time to adapt to new textures or flavors. Try leaving the chew accessible for a few days or slightly wetting a small part to release more scent. Ensure the dog is not overly full from a recent meal.

Chew seems too hard for my dog.

If your dog struggles to chew or shows discomfort, this chew may not be suitable. Consult your veterinarian for alternative dental chews appropriate for your dog's dental health. Do not force your dog to chew.

Dog is trying to swallow large pieces.

This indicates the dog is chewing too aggressively or the size is inappropriate. Immediately remove the chew and supervise more closely. Consider a larger size or a different type of treat if this behavior persists.

Chew is becoming sharp or jagged.

As the chew is consumed, edges can become sharp. Monitor your dog's chewing and remove the chew if it breaks into pieces that could be a choking hazard or cause injury.
