Mighty Paw Yak Cheese Dog Chews - All-Natural Treats for Dogs - High Protein Treat With 68 Grams Of Protein Per Chew - Delicious And Long Lasting - Odor Free With Limited Ingredients - (Large, 4 Pack)

My Pitty and Heeler Shepard mix went BANANAS for these! Shepard mix, 35 lbs, still gnawing after an hour w/half the stick left. 50lb Pittie ate the whole thing in about 20 min before I could take the stub away. I keep the snacks in the laundry room, and after Pittie ate his Yak and heard me open the laundry room door, he about body-checked my other dog out of the way, hoping he would get another Yak-crack stick! I'm pretty choosey with our dog treats, wanting to keep their digestive system happy and fart-free, this trear agrees with them. I highly recommend.

These are a wonderful treat. I bought these at a local store before, it was just easier to have them shipped to me. Note: Once they get small, just wet them and pop them in the microwave for a few seconds - they change to a “cheese puff” so your dog can finish it all :). Great, healthy treat.

These yak chews are a huge hit in our house! Both of my dogs go crazy for them, and I love that they’re all-natural with only three ingredients. They keep my pups busy for a long time, which is a big win—especially for power chewers.What I like:Super long-lasting compared to most other chewsNo strong smell (huge bonus!)Limited ingredients—great for sensitive tummiesGreat size for medium dogs and strong chewersWhat to know:They can get a little crumbly and messy, especially as they’re chewed downI usually have to do a quick vacuum or sweep afterward—but it’s worth it for how much my dogs love themWhen they get too small, I pop the ends in the microwave for a crunchy puff treat (they love that too!)

***Update 1/10/23So far even with issue from first post, these seem the best and safest option for my super chewer. Since original post, tried out some bully sticks and found them more expensive and she got through one in minutes, not days. As far as these go compared to bully sticks they last way longer and don’t smell bad ( bully sticks do). After she went through the first four yak chews chews in original bag, I’ve ordered more. Changed to four stars from 3 because they are safe, she gets to eat all of chew so no waste, and they engage the heck out of her. These are a good product. Still wish the price was lower but this brand seems to be a good buy compared to most, especially as these are really solid and last a while.****Original review:So went out on a limb and spent what I feel is a LOT of money for dog chews - $6 bucks each - But we recently adopted a GSD 7 month old puppy who is a serious superchewer - has destroyed all toys but her kong, and puts EVERYTHING in her mouth. When the package of chews first came, I got a little ticked off looking into the bag (see pics) because it made it look like they weren't the same size - but after investigating, they are all approximately the same weight, just not the same length/shape. Only one of the chews in the bag looks like the ones on the advertising pics. Not consistent, and since this is a formed and cut item, I was expecting each one to be pretty uniform. From the pictures I've included, you can see the short one especially is very square, which brought on another issue - pup was very interested in the chew, but when she tried to chew it, lost interest very quickly as the corners and sides were sharp and seemed to hurt her mouth. Tried it out with her sage older buddy (4yr. old GSD) and got the same reaction. Interest turned to 'no thanks'. So I took the short chew out to the garage, used a very sharp, large chisel and shaved down the corners and edges so they weren't sharp anymore. Not only did Cali decide the shavings were tasty, she then really gave the chew a go. I'm a bit skeptical, as this chew is very hard, seems harder or at least analagous to a Benebone which we had for her, which we didn't buy a third after reading their site recommendations for chew levels at which to discard (basically you pay about $12 for about two day's worth of chew if you discard at the point their website says is safe), and realizing she was just ingesting thousands of little sharp nylon shavings with them. So we bought these hoping they'd last, and be a lot safer. I'm holding my judgement on the chew until she's had more time with it, as I'm not sure I like how it sounds on her teeth (may be too hard?) and the way it is breaking down so far ... smallish chunks/shards like if you bite on a hard candy were coming off... was hoping more like meal, crumbles, not sharp bits. We will see.** Update 12/20/22She loves these things, and they do soften up after she has a go at them for a bit and do become soft crumbles. They are lasting about 3 days each, that is about 2-3 hard core chew sessions per day. Once shaved the sharp edges down she goes to town on it. I put one end in her kong to keep the end bit from becoming a choking hazard. Have had to get that bit out with tools (screwdriver on small end, pliers on big) but it keeps her safe. Followed the directions of soaking the end bit in water, then microwaving - makes a weird hard kind of puff - more like a large very rigid pork rind - and she loves those too, but warning - they make a god-awful mess. So far, these are the best edible chews I have tried that are digestible and safe. I feel like that makes this type of treat worth it - and is probably saving our furniture, which would cost more than these admittedly.

We adopted a nearly 4 month old shepsky recently. She's a super chewer and is keen on destroying her toys. These were suggested by a trainer, and I'm so grateful! One has lasted a few days. She has gone through other "long lasting" chews in minutes! She hasn't had any tummy issues thus far. We'll continue to use these to keep her from trying to chew on us or my kids.

I worried about these because they are SO hard but after a minute they soften up on the ends.I worry about the ends turning into sharp pieces when they get small. You can make crunchy treats with the ends but I just gave them new ones.

I've bought these in the past and have always been very happy with their digestability and how long it took my dog to go through thrm, but the last ones I received last time are much softer. My moderate chewer was able to go through an entire cheese in about 20-25 minutes. In the past, they would last for over a week. I'm not sure if it was an issue with the batch not hardening enough or the process has changed somehow, but it is dissapointing. Other than that, they're a good product, a great price for the size and amount of cheese you get, and my dog loves them. I will purchase them again in the future, but if they continue to be as soft and quick for my dog to eat as the last batch, I may try other brands.
