Yak chews are eaten in a similar way to lollypops - eventually there'll only be a small part left that is too small for your dog to hold between their paws. But - there's a great way to keep your dog safe from chewing on leftovers that are too small, whilst also getting your money's worth and avoiding waste: yak chew nuggets! 

Overall, whilst both rawhide and yak chews have the same aim to occupy dogs whilst providing a tasty and durable treat, the latter chews have ample benefits and are much healthier.

The debate between natural and processed dog treats is more than a trend—it’s about health, ethics, and transparency. Natural treats like dehydrated meat, yak chews, and plant-based biscuits, offer limited ingredients and fewer additives.

From an ethical sourcing perspective, yak chews often come from sustainable Himalayan farms, making them a more environmentally conscious choice. Pet owners increasingly seek natural, additive-free products, and yak chews meet that demand. However, safety should always come first. 

Yak chew treats originate from Nepal, where local herds-people in the Himalayas needed an easy way to get a high-level of protein for themselves. The yak chews we give to our dogs are based on the same, simple recipe - just milk, lime juice and salt!

So now that we know what yak chews are and where they come from, how healthy are they for our dogs?
