Cheese Chews, Long Lasting, Stain Free, Protein Rich, Low Odor, 100% Natural, Healthy & Safe, No Lactose, Gluten Or Grains, 2.5 lbs BULK TUB, MEDIUM, for 35 Lbs & Smaller

So I got this one, as to check it out and see if the pup liked it, because we've got a Mal-mix that hyper chews EVERYTHING. She's about 30 pounds right now, so I thought, okay we'll be safe, it'll last a while... Three days later, it was completely gone. I thought, that can't be right, because it says it lasts a long time. I have no idea what a "long time" means, but I'm guessing it meant more than 3 days. The upside is, she loved it. So much so, I ordered a larger weight level set of 4, to see how long those last each. Hopefully more than 3 days. We're in the 4-7 month teething range right now, so chewing is life for this pup, and if it keeps her from chewing the wood baseboards and even drywall corners or furniture corners, I'll take it. Chewability seems to be fine for a 'hardened' treat like this. Our pup's activity level is through the roof so if it keeps her busy a few hours, awesome for us. She seems to like the bacon/cheese taste, so that's a plus too, but I mean what dog doesn't like bacon (real, not that fake stuff). Even if your dog is under the weight range for the product description, if you've got an "active" breed like a Mal, I'd suggest moving up in size just because if a 30 lb pup can chew up one of these in 3 days or less, they need just a little bit more to keep it going longer. It could also be because our pup gets bored easy and chewing is what they do when bored. We're passed the ultra sharp shredder first teeth and into the large molars coming in along with the other permanent adult teeth. Maybe for ultra chewers they could come up with a different formula, or maybe it's perfect the way it is.

I’ll give each of the Pugs one of these Yak Sticks periodically to keep them content while I work out. They will be safely in their crates where I can watch the whole time while I ride my bike, stretch, etc. The size and strength are perfect for my Pugs decreasing the chance of swallowing a big chunk—it hasn’t ever happened with my crew. The sticks must taste and smell *delicious*, because they typically chew until they’re sleepy and ready to nap. Meet Cosette aka Cozy the youngest and tiniest Pug at 11.3 pounds. She has to be part beaver! Over the course of an hour +, she will go on a mission to destroy! It looks like a beaver has chewed these sticks with perfect ridges whittled into the surface! There are tiny whittled pieces of yak stick pulp all over the floor of the crate and on her! She consumes very little of it which is perfect. We have to keep her at a healthy, consistent weight due to elbow dysplasia. She lines her stick up against the side of the crate and proceeds chew them like corn on the cob. They look like they’ve been machined somehow! Photos and videos are attached of what she can accomplish in an hour+ compared to the others! We’ve had no problems with allergies, consuming too much much, losing interest or being harmed in any way which is saying a LOT for a breed that will eat anything that tastes good! Cozy gives them four paws up! Photo is a comparison of what one of the other Pugs does during a chew session compared to Cozy! No big pieces are broken off just a ton of shreds that primarily aren’t consumed.

My Frenchie loves these. He is able to chew on these for a long time and digest them easily. They are a decent value for the money when you subscribe and save. The quality is amazing. My Ftenchie really has to work to chew them up (which is good for his teeth and keeps him entertained). The natural color makes me feel better about giving them to him and he clearly loves the taste of them.

I was looking for a dog chew other than Nylabone because they make my dog sick and the Himalayan dog chew is great! Not only does he not get sick but he also seems to like it way better than his old Nylabone! It's not smelly like many bully sticks can be and he chews it like crazy! So far it seems to last longer than nylabone. I'd highly recommend it! My dog is quite the lil chewer and he's a happy pup! UPDATE: I've now ordered these twice and my Boston loves them. He chews them up pretty fast (usually takes him a week or so) but I really like that there's no waste, when the chew gets small, you just throw it in the microwave and the dog has a tasty treat! I will continue to purchase these as they're not plastic, not stinky and pup loves them. I had my doubts but I am now a total convert to the Himilayan dog chew! The only reason I took off one star is because they aren't cheap (although they're cheaper than nylabones) and they go quick.

My dog loves these cheese chews. She chews on it several times a day. She is probably on her 40th one

We have a 16 wk Aussie who has a ton of energy and doesn’t settle down easily. By evening we’re exhausted but he still wants to play, bite, and get in to everything. The breeder gave us some kind of long thin chew stick that he really liked, and it lasted a couple weeks, but we haven’t been able to find the exact kind to buy again. We bought the Nylabone healthy edibles, but he finished in less than two hours and they always gave him awful diarrhea. We tried bully sticks, but not much interest, same as braided collagen chews. Jumbones also gave him diarrhea and lasted just mins. He really likes the N-bone edible teething rings, but they last less than 30 mins now. I decided to try these and he loves them, has zero diarrhea, and has been chewing for two evenings and barely made a dent. It’s his special night time treat, and also a treat for us. He sits calmly on the couch for up to two hours just chewing. I just ordered two more so we always have one. I will say they seem pretty salty… he’s very very thirsty while/after eating. He drank a whole bowl of water tonight mid way through his chew session, and then more later, and more after.

As you can see I have a small 12lb dog. He loves these chews, but after two tries, I have to remove them from rotation. Elvis is a semi-aggressive chewer. Bully sticks to him are like beef jerky to humans. IMO these chews are dangerous. They fracture into chunks that are sharp choking hazard sized pieces.

Having read reviews for this product (and other similar yak cheese chews), I expected a safe, long-lasting chew that my dog would enjoy without as much risk of choking or adverse health side effects as with other chews. At this price point, though, the chew does not last long enough to be worth the price. While others have mentioned that one of these chews will last weeks, this was not the case with my relatively small (30lb) beagle/hound mix. These chews deserve a star for being healthy. I've been told rawhides cause big problems, such as intestinal blockages and choking, they expand in dogs' stomachs, and they have lots of chemicals and very little nutritional value. I've also been told that beef bones can contain unhealthy bacteria (if raw), or can splinter and cause serious complications (when cooked). I've been told nylabones can lead to cracked teeth because they are too hard. Antlers and bully sticks seem to be ok, but more on that later. Generally, though, people seem to agree that chewing is an important activity for dogs, to promote clean teeth and gums, and to help expend some excess energy. So, if you're concerned with your dog's dental health or you just want to give them a nice safe chew, this is a good alternative, if you can afford to spend that much on chews for your dog. These chews deserve a star for "taste". My dog is somewhat picky with chews, and tends to avoid unflavored rawhides, doesn't like his nylabone, isn't a huge fan of sterile beef bones, and doesn't have much interest in antlers. He likes the bone-shaped meat-filled treats like busy bones, but they don't last very long either, and are more like a treat. He also loves bully sticks, but the bully sticks are a little smelly, and can also be expensive. He seems to like the himalayan dog chews as much as he loves bully sticks (though not as much as he loves pig ears), and the himalayan dog chew will last longer than a single 4-6" bully stick. My dog is not a very aggressive chewer- he usually just takes his time and chews slowly. Still, one of these treats only lasts roughly 90 minutes of total chewing time. The chew also softens a great deal after it gets wet with with saliva, so if I didn't break up the chewing sessions by taking the chew away and letting it dry out, the chew-time would be far less (since he can chew it much faster when it starts getting soggy). In summary, these are a great treat, they're healthy, enticing for dogs, and last a bit longer than things like bully sticks or rawhides, but they are not worth the price. I might order a few more as special treats to keep my dog occupied from time to time, but its not very cost effective for my dog, since they just don't last very long. For regular chews, I'll be sticking with bully sticks that are available on amazon for decent prices (freeze them to keep down the smell), and these bacon edible nylabones, which my dog LOVES, and which keep him occupied for a little while without being too expensive (but note, they are a crumbly-type chew, so don't expect them to last more than like half an hour): Nylabone Healthy Edibles Bacon Flavored Bone with Vitamins, Regular, 12-Count Pouch . If my dog were interested in antlers, I would buy those instead of these himalayan chews, because they really do last a long time, and are in the same price range.
