Product Overview
This yak cheese chew (often known as “chhurpi”) is a hard cheese chew crafted from yak milk through a traditional drying and pressing process. The hardness and density mean it can last hours or even days with chew-loving dogs.
Yak chews are popular because they are essentially edible cheese that’s safe, long-lasting, and beneficial.
They are lactose-reduced during production, making them better tolerated by many dogs.
