Himalayan Dog Chews are safe:
- What if your dog gulps down big or sharp pieces? In the 6 years using this with dogs, the makers have seen many different dogs gulp down every size of chew imaginable. The yak milk dog chews are fully digestible, but please use common sense and supervise your dog with this and any chew. Of course, any voracious chewer should probably be given the largest available and definitely be observed during the initial 15 minutes after the dog is introduced to the new product. If it appears as though the dog is going to inhale the entire product before those 15 minutes are up, then it should be taken away and reintroduced at a later time. In fact we would recommend that all dogs be watched at least for 15 minutes after being given any new product.
- Product Manufacturing: This is a fair trade item created by co-ops in Nepal. The cows and yaks graze on open grasslands or are brought fresh cut grass by their families, and are never given hormones, antibiotics, or other chemicals. The chews are distributed and packaged in the USA. The product are tested in U.S. laboratories for its content, including harmful bacteria and potential for bacterial growth over time.
- Note: These Himalayan dog chews are very hard, but if they are dropped onto a hard floor they may break.
