chewmeter Yaky Mixed Himalayan Cheese Dog Treat, 9.75-oz bag

My 75 pound Golden loves these cheese sticks. He loves to chew but insists on eating anything he chews on- stuffy toys, rope toys, nylabones, tennis balls, plastic toys, towels, etc. These cheese sticks can keep him occupied for hours and smell like smoked cheese (so much better smelling than dried animal parts). The only reason for 4 stars is the size and hardness of the sticks can vary. Most sticks last him a few days, but occasionally we get one that he eats within an hour. Still worth it for a long lasting, not stinky, edible treat.

Our golden retriever puppy goes crazy for these cheese dog treats! I love how you get 3 large treats in each bag. They last her a long time, too (at least 2-3 weeks) and she loves it when we microwave it per the directions and turn it into a cheese puff when it's down to it's last bit. We also love how there is a single ingredient - Himalayan Cheese. We will definitely keep purchasing these for our puppy.

So my 101-Lb Great Pyrenees likes these Yaky Himalayan Cheese Chews. She's a moderate chewer by contrast to my previous Lab, Rotties & Pitt that were heavy chewers. I also have a 6-lb Pomeranian that loves these. See the images I attached and compare them to the advertised image: Not even similar. I included the 70-lb version I've used in the past (item on the left). Note the three in this package look nothing like the advertised image in the package in color, texture or size. These three appear to have basting or something in them/ on them. This is an important distinction because the item on the left doesn't have the basting. The darkest basting stained both my carpet and the dog bed cover So my 101-Lb Great Pyrenees likes these Yaky Himalayan Cheese Chews.

This is an important distinction because the item on the left doesn't have the basting. The darkest basting stained both my carpet and the dog bed cover whereas the original version doesn't stain anything when it is wet. Also, the basting on the two larger ones have a distinctive odor from that basting. Note, the original has no odor. When this 3-pk is on sale for $8.50, it's still worth it as both my dogs really like them. I haven't done the soak in water yet for any from this 3-pk to make a puff yet. As a result, I don't know if they are the same/ similar to the original version (on the left) that both dogs LOVE !!! My guess is they may just be different type of puff that they will also like. 3-STARS because of the misleading image and the not disclosed basting. I would not buy this 3-pk at the original price however given the extremely small third yaky in the package which would not make it a value. I would buy again at the sale price based on my dogs' reaction to them. … more

As far as yak cheese based chews goes, these seem to be of a decent quality. They last both the family dog (heeler mix, 35 pound range with a strong jaw) and my dog (50 pounds, standard poodle, slim but powerful mouth) a decent amount of time, so at least 30 minutes to get to a nub even if one is in a ravenous mood. They get softer as they get slobbered on which keeps them appealing to the family dog who chewing style wise, likes to gnaw hard on chews initially but becomes disinterested if they do not soften. This is super helpful for preventing tooth damage in either dog. This, like most edible chews, does mean I have to keep a careful eye on each of them (as when they work it down to a nub, As far as yak cheese based chews goes, these seem to be of a decent quality.

I love popping the nubs into water and heating them up later for an extra nice treat. These can create a mess depending on the surface it is being chewed on and chew style of each dog, but I have not found it hard to clean up/smell hard to remove. Each dog considers the yak chew to be of decent value, but not so valuable that I have any kind of issue trading it for other toys and treats, but that has everything to do with my individual dogs and training used regarding resources. … more

I think these have given my Thor bathroom problems. He usually goes about three times a day but since we have given him these, he has gone double the amount and had to go so bad he wasn't able get our attention in time to let him out twice and he has been house trained for two months. I can't be 100% certain it's from these but it was the change. He does love them but I can't have him going in the house.

Both my dogs LOVE these! However, it is most amazing for my one dog who doesn't normally like chew sticks/toys. She will walk around with this for an hour, chewing it, licking it or just sleeping with it. At the end of the hour when she needs a break, she hides it somewhere in the house until the next chew chew session!!

My chewy order arrived and I had bought one of these for my boy Caesar. Apparently, they weren't up his alley because I gave it to him and walked into my kitchen. I turned around and came back, and Caesar was stuffing it in between my couch cushions! I'm not saying these were bad, my boy is a special pup. Lol. Just thought I would share for a laugh.

My 5 pound pup loves these. I accidentally got him the big dog size so he’s still working on his first one but I heard they last years so I was ok with it! Then I go to take the bag out of the sealed box it’s in and the other two yak chews are moldy! Super disappointed since the expiration date is 2025 and they were in a cool dry place. Makes me concerned on if they were made right since they got moldy and shouldn’t have.

Our redtick coonhound LOVES these cheese sticks! They take her like a week and a half-2 weeks to get through. I definitely recommend putting a blanket down or letting them chew on an easily cleanable surface because the chew basically chips off as they work on it and you'll have small little stabby pieces everywhere. This is a minor inconvenience for the joy it brings our pup though! Handheld vaccum cleans the little pieces right up and it "scratches" her chew instinct so cant complain! No runny poops that others have mentioned but we do only let her chew on it for an hr or so at a time.

Both of my Great Danes love these. They're very long-lasting which is important to me. They never finish one in the same day so it's like having multiple treats because they can chew on it for many days.
