Natural Yak Chews

Real chew. Real challenge. Real yak.

Information

  • NAW's YAKERS collection is packed with long-lasting yak milk chews designed for serious gnashing. Made using a traditional Himalayan-inspired recipe and a handful of simple ingredients, each chew delivers the tough texture dogs crave. Different to our usual all-meat line-up, but every bit as chew-worthy. Just proper chews, ready for serious NAWing.
  • Hard. Chewy. Properly satisfying. YAKERS are made for dogs who think chewing is a full-time job. Naturally high in protein and built to last, they're a brilliant way to keep jaws busy and brains occupied when a quick snack just won't cut it.

FAQ

Find the most frequently asked questions below.
  • YAKERS are made from a mix of skimmed yak and cow's milk. A very small amount of lime juice and salt is added to help solidify the milk, which is then compressed into blocks and smoke dried for 28 days to give the chews their unique smoky flavour.

  • YAKERS are smoked in the Himalayas using traditional methods. Each chew is laid on drying racks and they dry using traditional smoking sheds. The chews are moved up in height weekly over a 4-week period as they dry so that they are further away from the smoker, so the difference in colour shouldn't be too great, however a darker colour just means that they have had smoke than others. This colour may vary slightly from batch to batch too.

  • The dimples appear when the cheese is being compressed into blocks, as they are wrapped in muslin cloth.

  • YAKERS are suitable for all dogs aged 4 months and over.

  • No, YAKERS chews contain only 5.2% fat, as the cheese used is made from skimmed milk. All of the cream is removed during the first stage of manufacturing.

  • Salt in large amounts is harmful for dogs as it is for humans. However, in YAKERS we only use a tiny amount of salt along with lime juice to get the cheese to harden at the very start of the manufacturing process. YAKERS is less than 0.1% salt.

  • Not all dogs are lactose intolerant, but if they are, there is less than 1% Lactose in YAKERS. The reason is that both the Cream and the Whey are removed from the milk as part of the manufacturing process, meaning that the levels of lactose are very, very low.

  • Yes they are. YAKERS chews are made from only milk, lime juice and salt.
