💡 Puff Up the End Piece! (Zero-Waste Microwave Hack)

When your dog chews the treat down to a small end piece, don't throw it away:

Microwave on high for 45–60 seconds until it puffs up into a crunchy cheese treat.

Key Features & Benefits

All-Natural Yak Cheese Nuggets

Made with Himalayan yak cheese for a simple, protein-rich dog treat.

1LB Bag Size

Good for keeping at home if you use treats often for chewing or rewards.

Turns Into Crunchy Puffs

Microwave the nuggets after soaking to make a light, crispy treat dogs enjoy.

The smaller bite size makes them useful for training, rewarding, or quick treat time.

Helps Support Oral Hygiene

Chewing can help with plaque and tartar buildup over time.

Protein-Rich Treat

Gives your dog something more useful than a regular soft snack.

No Preservatives or Additives

Made without artificial preservatives, additives, or harsh chemicals.

Good for Chewers and Snackers

Works well for dogs who like to chew, but also enjoy smaller crunchy bites.

Responsible Feeding and Safety Tips

Keep an Eye While They Chew

Stay nearby while your dog enjoys the nuggets, especially if they’re an enthusiastic chewer. Fresh drinking water should always be within reach.

Start Slow With New Treats

If yak cheese is new to your dog, begin with a smaller amount and see how they respond. This is especially useful for dogs with sensitive stomachs.

Serve Appropriately:

Offer the nuggets in portions suitable for your dog’s size and chewing habits. Avoid giving too many treats at once.

Crunchy Puff Option:

Yak chew nuggets can be puffed for a lighter, crunchy texture. Follow the preparation instructions and allow them to cool completely before serving.

Everyday Feeding:

Treats should be given as part of a balanced diet rather than replacing your dog’s regular meals.

Works great for puzzle toys

I pop a couple of the puffed nuggets inside my dog’s treat-dispensing ball and it keeps him busy for a long time trying to work them out. Love the simple 2-ingredient recipe. Kathmandu never disappoints!

Solid rawhide replacement

Great alternative to rawhide. I give my terrier one nugget every evening after dinner. He looks forward to it every day.

Best snack ever

My Corgi gives this 5 stars! Puffs up huge in the microwave.

Smells like real cheese

You can tell these are 100% natural. No funky chemical odor like other dog treats. Worth the price tag!

Great quality, slightly uneven sizes

The nuggets vary a bit in size inside the bag, some are tiny bites and a few are pretty big chunk pieces. Not a dealbreaker at all, just gotta supervise when giving the bigger pieces un-microwaved. Quality of the cheese itself is top tier.

Crunchy goodness

Puffed up nicely in the microwave! My dog ate it in seconds.

Perfect bite size for medium dogs

Bought these on sale for $29.95 and they’re definitely worth it. The full-size yak sticks are sometimes too big for my beagle to finish in one sitting, so these little nuggets are the perfect compromise. Nice and crunchy.

Pup obsessed!

Obsessed is an understatement. She hears the bag open and comes running! 10/10

Dog loves them, but kinda messy

My dog loves the crunch when you microwave them, but they do leave a few tiny crumbs on the living room rug. Still way better than messy raw meat treats though. Good quality overall.

Awesome training reward

Great alternative to the big sticks. Easy to pop in a treat bag during walks.

Microwaving these is a must!!

I soak these in water for about 5 mins and microwave them for 45-60 seconds like the directions say, they puff up into huge crunchy cheese balls! My lab goes nuts for them. The 1lb bag actually comes with a generous amount, so it lasts a while. Definitely buying again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Himalayan Yak Chews?

Himalayan Yak Chews are 100% natural, long-lasting dog chews made from yak/cow milk and lime juice, free from artificial additives, preservatives, or chemicals. Available in traditional and naturally flavored varieties (like banana, blueberry, coconut, pumpkin, mint, strawberry, turmeric), they provide a delicious, highly digestible chew that helps clean teeth and reduce plaque. As your dog chews, it also naturally helps clean teeth and reduce plaque. Once it wears down to a small size, simply microwave it into a crunchy yak puff treat — zero waste, maximum value.

What is the story or origin behind this chew?

Kathmandus Natural Dog Chew is produced using an ancient recipe of the people living in the high altitude of Nepal (Himalayas). The smaller variant of this hard cheese, locally known as Churpi, is still used as a protein-supplemental human chew in the Himalayas and is free of chemical preservatives and foreign additives. Our dog chew is a larger variant of Churpi that keeps your dog happy and busy for hours.

How long does our yak chews last?

Most dogs need several chewing sessions to finish a single yak chew, even if they're aggressive chewers. Unlike many other chews, ours never lose their flavor, so your dog stays engaged for longer-lasting enjoyment.

Are yak chews safe and easy to digest?

Yes! 100% natural, with no artificial colors, flavors, chemicals, or preservatives, our chews are highly digestible. They're designed to soften and break down gradually as your dog chews — rather than splintering like many rawhide or bone-based alternatives.

Do yak chews leave stains or color behind?

No! Since our chews contain no artificial dyes, they won't leave any color or stains behind. They're completely mess-free and safe around your pet's fur, carpet, bedding, and furniture.

Are they suitable for puppies or large dogs?

Yes! We offer multiple sizes so you can choose the right fit for your dog's breed and chewing strength. As with any chew, select an appropriate size and supervise your dog while chewing — especially puppies and powerful chewers.

I'm not sure what size chew is right for my dog. Can you help?

We offer 7 sizes to match your dog's weight, so every pup gets an appropriately-sized chew:

Small(1-1.5oz) - Under 15lbs

Medium(2.5-3oz) - Under 30lbs

Large(3-4oz) - Under 55lbs

X-Large(5-6oz) - Under 80lbs

Jumbo(6-7oz) - Under 90lbs

Mega(7-8oz) - Under 100lbs

XXL(8-10oz) - Over 100lbs

If your dog is between sizes or a particularly aggressive chewer, we recommend sizing up for a longer-lasting chew. As always, supervise chewing sessions regardless of size.

What safety precautions should I keep in mind while my dog is chewing?

Our Chew provides a hygienic and safe option compared to bones and other chewing treats for dogs. Like similar products, including chews, rawhide, or bones, there is a risk of choking if swallowed and a possibility of breaking or chipping a tooth. It is essential to always supervise your dog during chewing activities and ensure they have access to plenty of water. If you observe any potential risks, stop using the product immediately.

What is the proper storage condition for the chew?

Store in a cool dry place. Do not refrigerate.

What's the difference between Yak Chew Nuggets, the Cheese Topper, and Yak Cheese Puffs?

Yak Chew Nuggets are bite-sized, long-lasting chews perfect for dedicated chewing sessions.
Himalayan Yak Cheese Topper is a powdered form you can sprinkle over your dog's regular food for added protein and flavor.
Crunchy Yak Cheese Puffs are light, crunchy treats — the same puffed texture you get when you microwave leftover chew pieces, now available ready-to-serve.
