Original Dog Chew - X - Large

The Himalayan Dog Chew Original Yak Cheese Chew in the bacon flavor is an absolute winner for power chewers. The X-Large size is generous and long-lasting, making it a great choice for big dogs or pups who usually fly through treats in minutes. This chew keeps them occupied, satisfied, and mentally engaged. The bacon flavor is a big hit—dogs seem to love the savory scent, and it instantly grabs their attention. Despite being flavorful, the chew doesn’t leave greasy residue or strong odors around the house, which is a huge plus. Like all Himalayan yak chews, it’s made from simple, natural ingredients and is easy to digest when chewed down. It also doesn’t splinter, making it a safer alternative to bones or antlers. Once it gets small enough, you can microwave the leftover piece to turn it into a crunchy cheese puff, so nothing goes to waste. If you want a durable, flavorful, and natural chew that keeps dogs entertained, the Himalayan Dog Chew in Bacon (X-Large) is a fantastic choice. It’s a great investment for happy, busy, and satisfied pups.

I have a super muscular black lab who weighs 85 pounds, and a German Shepherd/Corb Shepherd mix (Romanian bear hunting and wolf hunting sheep herding breed, very big) who's slightly bigger than the lab. They chew on them for about two hours at a time and then start arguing over who gets which bone so I take them away. I'll give them back a day or two later for another two hours and then the same thing happens. So I would say they probably get a good 8 hours of chewing on these before I pop them in the microwave to puff up, when they are about 2 inches long. The minute they realize that's what I am about to do they go crazy. It changes the texture of them and I think the heat just releases this smell that they absolutely love. But they come out of the microwave extremely hot, and not just on the outside. They have to cool significantly before I can give them back. So that does make my pups quite impatient. I pop them in the freezer and I know it's safe within five minutes. Another thing I've noticed is that they enjoy playing with these bones as much as chewing on them. When I first gave one to my lab when he was seven or eight months old, he sneezed at it and tossed it around the room like it was alive and he needed to kill it first. That went on for days before he finally started chewing on it. Now that he has a better idea of how good it is he plays with it a little each time I give it to him, but then really gets to work chewing on it. My shepherd mix who just turned one still plays with it that way for a while each time I give it to her, and that's not something she normally does with other treats or chew toys. She is strictly a chewer normally. I have purchased dozens of different types of treats for them online and in the store, and this is by far their favorite treat. It's also the longest lasting treat. Everything else I buy that claims to be long-lasting, whether it's a natural animal product or something factory made, is gone in half an hour tops. So in my opinion it is definitely worth spending a few extra dollars for these treats because they will outlast anything else I've tried and my dogs never get tired of them.

If you want something your dog can’t chew through in a day, this is your best bet. Good quality. Doesn't stink or really make a mess. He’s had no issues with digesting it. No choking. The Big Dog size is perfect for my 75lb Lab! Keeps him busy for hours.

This product is DANGEROUS and should be removed from Amazon until product quality issues are addressed. The quality of this product has varied significantly over the last few years. When this product first appeared on Amazon (shortly after appearing on the TV show "Shark Tank") it was a long lasting high quality dog chew. Unfortunately, there have been significant issues with product consistency more recently, including: *Chew consistency is chalky (e.g. softer) and lasts 10 minutes (instead of hours) *Smoking process leaves excessive smoke smell, tainting the chew (chew smells like an ashtray) *Significant amounts of mold/spores present on the chew (visible inside the new, unopened package) *Chew is over dried (DANGEROUS) - when the chew is exposed to water (e.g. dog saliva) it forms cracks which chip off in to dangerously sharp pieces I cannot stress the importance and danger of the last issue. These chews become fractured (as shown in numerous pictures by other reviewers) , causing pieces of the chew to shear off. This appears similar to 'flintknapping' (the processed used to make arrowheads or sharp tools using rocks); the chips are both pointy and can have very hard thin edges (sharp). The chew continues to slough off pieces as the outer layers are chipped off. As other reviewers have mentioned, this can cause to the chew to disintegrate, leaving pieces too large to digest, but small enough to swallow. If you do decide to purchase this product (please don't), please first expose to the chew to warm running water for 1-2 minutes, then allow the chew to dry out. If you hear subtle cracking sounds (like pop-rocks) while the water is running or small cracks appear on the chew once it is dry, RETURN THE CHEW - IT IS DANGEROUS.

70lb German Shepherd mix has eaten most of the stick within 2 days. She's a very happy dog chewing on this and it's a good distraction.

I know it was expensive, but these have likely saved me hundreds in other damage from chewingchewing. Keeps the puppy busy. Would recommend as a natural alternative to chew toys and not adding much to upset diet

My dog absolutely loved this and made sure to sleep on it so no one else would take it. Its just a bit too expensive for what it is. Definitely will only purchase it once in awhile as a special treat.

my dog got very sick after eating it.

The dog loved them. Safe and healthy for my puppy dog.

My dog loves these. She's a nutter for anything cheesy. I have tried all sorts of long lasting natural chews - antlers, chew toots, but keep coming back to these. They are expensive but they do last. My dog gets 2-4 weeks out of one and she has access to it all the time. I just wish they were available in the UK, as waiting for them to arrive can be long.
