Himalayan Dog Chew comes from an ancient recipe of the people of the Himalayas. In the mountains at more than 15,000 feet, it is made using traditional methods with Yak and Cow Milk and all natural products and no chemicals or preservatives. The idea of Himalayan Dog Chew began in 2005 when two friends - Suman and Nishes - discovered that a popular mountain treat was loved by their dogs. One day, Nishes invited Suman to his house for dinner he spotted Nishes’s dog chewing on Himalayan hard cheese that are chewed by the people of the Himalayas for centuries. Out of curiosity, the founders tried the cheese on more dogs of their friends and families. The result encouraged the founders to do extensive research about the cheese for canine purpose for four years. On Sunday, September 2nd of 2007, Himalayan’s first product – the Himalayan Dog Chew – was sold in a small dog show Fair in Bellingham, Washington. After producing Himalayan Dog Chew at Nishes’s kitchen for three months, the operation was moved to Seattle under Sujan K Shrestha’s leadership in January 2008.
