Description
Description
Our long-lasting Himalayan cheese chew made with real mint, for a fresher finish.
Long-lasting · 65%+ protein · Never smoked · Grain & gluten free
The same traditional Himalayan chew, made with real mint for a cool, fresh aroma.
High in the Himalayas, families have made hard cheese from yak and cow milk for generations. We use the same traditional recipe to make a chew dogs can work on for hours.
Each chew is made from just a few ingredients, pressed into a dense bar and slowly air-dried for 4 to 12 weeks. Never smoked, with no preservatives or artificial additives.
- Keeps dogs busy. A hard, dense chew for calm, focused chewing time.
- High in protein. At least 65% protein.
- Low odor, low mess. Nice to have around the house.
- Chewing can help reduce plaque as part of a regular dental routine.

Safety
Safety
- Choose a chew larger than your dog’s mouth can swallow.
- Always supervise your dog while chewing.
- Keep sessions to about 15–20 minutes, then put the chew away.
- When the chew is small enough to swallow (about 1.5 in / 4 cm), take it away.
- Keep fresh water nearby.
- Not for puppies under 4 months or dogs with dental problems. If your dog has a dairy sensitivity or a history of pancreatitis, ask your vet first.
65% protein. The number is on the pack.
Most chews just say “high in protein” and stop there. Ours carries a guaranteed minimum of 65% crude protein — printed on every pouch, not a marketing line.
That is what you get when a chew is milk protein, pressed and slowly dried, with nothing else doing the work.
65% protein · about 1% fat · no grain, no gluten, no filler.
Why it's worth it
It works by being hard. There is nothing clever in it. Your dog gnaws, the surface scrapes, and that scraping is what helps lift plaque before it hardens. No enzymes, no additives, no powder to sprinkle — just a dense block of cheese and a dog with time on their hands.
A dog working on a chew isn't working on your shoes. We won't promise it fixes anything. But it buys you twenty quiet minutes, and most evenings that is the whole point.
What this chew isn't.
It isn't a dental treatment. Chewing can help with plaque — that is the whole claim.
It isn't a replacement for brushing or for your vet.
It isn't calorie-free. About one a week keeps it sensible.
It isn't for every dog. Dairy-sensitive dogs should skip this one.
It isn't indestructible. Strong chewers get through it faster, and they need supervision.

REAL BLUEBERRY
You can see the fruit in it
Hold a Blueberry chew up to the light and you will find small dark flecks running through it. That is the fruit. It is not a colouring, it is not a powder stirred in at the end — real blueberry goes into the curd before the chew is pressed, and the flecks are what is left after four to twelve weeks of air-drying.
It is the deepest-smelling chew we make. Dogs who find Natural a bit plain tend to settle on this one and stay there.
The chew itself does not change: the same four ingredients, the same density, the same hours of work for your dog.
The colour is a muted dusty purple, not a vivid one. If it were bright, something artificial would be in it.
Frequently asked questions
Questions, answered 👋
Which size does my dog need?
Which size does my dog need?
Small for dogs up to 15 lb, Medium for 15–44 lb, Large for 44 lb and up. If your dog is a power chewer, go one size up — it lasts longer and stays too big to swallow for longer.
The rule that beats the chart: a chew must always be larger than your dog can fit fully inside their mouth.
How long does one chew last?
How long does one chew last?
Anywhere from a couple of days for a power chewer to two or three weeks for a gentle nibbler.
The biggest thing you control is session length. Give it for 15–20 minutes, then put it away. That alone can make one chew last four times longer — and a chew that gets put away stays interesting, while one left on the floor becomes furniture.
What's actually in it?
What's actually in it?
Cow milk, yak milk, salt and lime juice. That is the whole list. Flavoured chews add one natural flavour and nothing else.
No preservatives, no additives, no grain, no gluten, no smoke and no meat of any kind. 65%+ crude protein and about 1% fat.
Made by hand in Nepal and air-dried for 4 to 12 weeks.
Is it safe for my dog?
Is it safe for my dog?
Safe for most dogs, with supervision. Not right for everyone.
Please skip it if your dog is: under 4 months old, has broken, missing or worn teeth, has a dairy sensitivity, or has a history of pancreatitis.
Every time: stay in the room, keep sessions to 15–20 minutes, keep water nearby, and take the chew away once it is small enough to swallow — about 1.5 in / 4 cm.

Does it smell?
Does it smell?
Very little, and that is the main reason people switch to us.
Because it is hard cheese rather than dried meat, hide or a bully stick, a Yakkuna chew has almost no odour, does not go slimy, and leaves no greasy mark on your carpet or sofa.
