CrunCheese for Dogs

CrunCheese are all-natural, puffed yak cheese treats with all of the health benefits of our unique yak chews. These handcrafted crunchy snacks are rich in protein, low in fat, and contain antioxidants. Our farm-to-market approach means that CrunCheese treats are ethically sourced from local farmers in Nepal, where they are smoke-dried to perfection for months, then gently heated to become delicate crunchy treats. The puffy and airy texture makes CrunCheese an excellent training or indulgent treat for dogs of all sizes and life stages.

Light, crunchy, and made using traditional Himalayan-style cheese methods, Yak9 CrunCheese is a natural dog treat designed for easy chewing and a satisfying crunch dogs love.

Crafted with ethically sourced milk and time-tested techniques, Yak9 CrunCheese delivers simple ingredients and trusted craftsmanship in a lighter, crunchier form.

Yak9 CrunCheese for Dogs is a crunchy, bite-sized dog treat made from yak milk and cow milk. Unlike traditional hard yak chews, CrunCheese is designed to be lighter and easier to chew, making it ideal for small dogs, senior dogs, puppies transitioning to harder chews, or dogs who prefer a quick, crunchy snack. Naturally high in protein and free from grains, gluten, and artificial preservatives, CrunCheese is a wholesome rawhide-free reward. With multiple flavor options available, CrunCheese offers variety while maintaining the same clean base recipe dogs enjoy.

How we started Yak9Chews

Before 2015

We were the customers first — and we were fed up.

Fed up watching our dogs shred every "tough" toy in minutes. Fed up with splintering rawhide, chews full of fillers and dyes, and the panic of catching our dog swallowing a chunk of plastic.

Every chew was either gone in a day, or an emergency-vet trip waiting to happen.

  • Gone in a day
  • Splintering rawhide
  • Fillers, grains and dyes
  • Swallowed chunks of plastic

    What we wanted didn't exist, so we went and found it.

    Clean, safe, long-lasting, and single-ingredient. Our search took us to the Himalayan region of Nepal, partnering directly with local dairy farmers to source authentic yak milk chews.

    Today

    Our dogs went wild for it, so we brought it home.

    We became the first to do it right. Nine years later, our mission remains unchanged: 100% natural ingredients, handcrafted Himalayan cheese, and happy, healthy dogs.

🐾 Thank you for being part of the journey. — Pukar & Shristi
