Is milk good for dogs?
It is difficult for dogs to digest milk in its raw form, but once milk is processed into cheese it is digestible. Since the curdled cheese is separated from the milk, most of the fat and lactose is removed from the cheese, lactose is the primary reason for indigestion. Only a small percentage of dogs that consume Yeti Dog Chews go through loose stool or gas and that always resolves.
Is cheese fattening?
Cheese is a nutrient packed food that contains protein, calcium, vitamin B12 and selenium. Most cheeses tend to be high in calories, but if consumed in moderation they are not fattening. Cheese is great for protecting teeth from cavities. In comparison to milk, cheese is pretty low in lactose so it's rarely a cause for an upset stomach. However, if your dog faces any health issues due to cheese, discontinue its consumption and consult your vet.
Will it go bad?
Yeti Dog Chew is best within two years, as long as it's kept away from moisture and kept at room temperature. However, if you see signs of mold growth, and patches of fibrous white or bluish green spots on the chew, then we recommend to not feed your dog. If it happens when it's still in original package, please contact us through email or phone for further information or a replacement.
What size chew do I give my dog?
Small size chews for dogs up to 20 lbs
Medium size chews for dogs up to 35 lbs
Large size chews for dogs up to 55 lbs
XL size chew for dogs larger than 55 lbs
What do I do with small remaining pieces?
When a small piece is left over from the chew, it can pose a choking hazard for your dog. Simply take the remaining piece and heat it in the microwave for 45-60 seconds, and it should puff up to twice its size. Once it cools, feed it to your dog for a crunchy treat!
