Everest Yak Chews
Handmade by the Himalayan Farmers
From the mountains of the Himalayas, we bring you all natural yak cheese for your dogs chewing pleasure. Handmade by the Himalayan farmers, our products are only made by using traditional methods and ingredients from around the region.
How are we different than our competitors?
-
Higher fat-content and salt may make the chews last longer but we took the opposite route. Our chews may not be the longest lasting but is definately healthier!!
-
Our dog chews come air-tight packaged with silica gel. Some of these chews are prone to moulds so it is a must to have it in a closed air-tight packaging.
-
We throughly clean and process our yak chews with lime-juice which is an addional step but we do this to ensure the chews are not contaminated
-
We have a mission to develop rural parts of the Himalayas that help us produce these dog chews.

Bought for Bull-Lurcher who loves this treat type. Good value: Larger size yak cheese so not gone in 3 bites. (The noise of her biting is still worse than nails on a blackboard). Will buy again

More on Yak Milk
Dog Chews
These chews, in tiny bits, were first created and consumed as snacks by the Himalayan people decades ago as a good source of protein and still do now. We took the same idea and turned it into an all-natural long hard cheese dog chews for your pet. Made from Yak milk, our chews contain the highest protein & calcium content with minimal fat and no chemically binding agents. Our Yak Milk Dog Chews are made from all-natural ingredients with no preservatives whatsoever. Compared to other types of dog chews, our dog chews don’t go to waste because you can simply microwave the end pieces and turn them into a large cheesy puff that is crunchier and easily digestible.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are all yak chews the same?
Definitely not. There are some very low-quality yak chews present in the market that could be harmful to your dog’s health. We always tell our buyers to buy from us and check our quality vs our competitors.
Moreover, there are EU-made chews that are commercially mass-produced in EU milk factories These are not yak chews since they are made in the EU (there are no yaks in Europe) and also do not support the Himalayan farmers.
-
How is the product made?
Everest Dog Chew contains a mixture of yak and cow milk. Once the mixture is boiled, the prevalent fat is separated by adding lime juice. The excess fat is then discarded. After a few hours of boiling the milk, it starts to thicken and forms a white cheese. Stirring the boiling milk gently and continuously is key to making this cheese. The cheese is poured into a clean cloth to drain out the excess water. Once the block of cheese is ready, it is cut into small pieces and dried. When the product is ready, it can be stored for a number of years. No preservative or artificial flavors are added to the whole process of making the product.
-
What are the ingredients?
Our chews are made with a mixture of yak and cow milk and lime juice. However, since it is hard to source yaks’ milk in mass, they contain mostly Himalayan cow milk.
-
What size do I give to my doggo?
Depending on the size and eating habits of the doggo, we recommend the following option: Small Dog Treat: For doggos up to 7kgs, Medium Dog Treat: For doggos up to 15kgs, Large Dogs Treat: For doggos up to 30 kgs and Big Dog Treat for doggos upto 45 kgs & above. -
How long do the treats last?
The amount of time is takes for a dog to devour the treat depends on several factors such as the size of the pet and chewing habits. The hard texture of the cheese makes it a long lasting dog treat, keeping your pet occupied for hours, even days! -
How long can I store Everest Dog Chew?
The shelf life of the chew is usually three years for any unopened Everest Dog Chew, in its original packaging, stored at room temperature. If you would like to save any open unfinished pieces for later consumption, please pat dry and store them away from moisture. After prolonged contact with moisture, if you notice any changes in the color such as patches of grey or green, it might be a result of mold. Please discard the treat immediately and start a fresh pack.
-
Are doggos lactose intolerance?
Even though dairy products are generally safe for most doggos, some may be lactose intolerant. Signs of lactose intolerance are acute intestinal distress such as gas, diarrhea. In case your pet is exhibiting these symptoms after consuming dairy products, we strongly advised you to seek medical attention and going forward avoid all dairy products including Everest Dog Chews.
-
Will the treat damage my doggos teeth?
Since the chew is a form of hard cheese, please consider your doggos’ oral health before making a purchase. However, the treats do get softer once the hard outer shell has been chewed on for a little while.
-
Are Everest Dog Chew suitable for all dog ages?
We recommend you start giving our chews when doggos reach 6 months of age. It may cause indigestion for smaller puppies.
-
Are Everest Dog Chews Softer than other brands?
We have less fat & are less smoked compared to other brands which make the chews more easily digestible. Let’s not forget the chew gets into the doggos stomach so we don’t want it to be too hard and rough 🙂
That being said, we definitely think we lie on the longer-lasting spectrum (EU-made chews are softer in comparison and are machine-made) as well as being healthy!
