Bugalugs Handmade Himalayan Cheese Bones are premium, 100% natural, long-lasting extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews that offer the perfect combination of tasty enjoyment and dental care for dogs.

In brief: Inspired by an ancient recipe, these extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews are handmade from pure cow's milk and naturally air-dried for at least 3 months to achieve their remarkable density and durability.

The product is an extremely healthy source of calcium and high-quality protein, while also working mechanically to remove built-up plaque and stubborn tartar. A very low lactose and calorie content, together with no grain, gluten, artificial preservatives or chemicals at all, make these extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews an ideal healthy alternative to processed rawhide, and they carry the Made in UK mark.

A natural source of calcium for strong teeth, and a remedy for greed and boredom

Chewing is an innate natural instinct in dogs that helps release pent-up energy and reduce stress. These Bugalugs extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews keep your dog safely occupied for hours, effectively preventing destructive behaviour and chewing of furniture at home. Their high density ensures they last a long time, making them an excellent choice both for growing, teething puppies and for energetic large-breed dogs.

The special composition of these extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews provides essential vitamins A, D and B12, supporting overall immunity, bone strength and muscle tone. Unlike mass-market dairy products, traditional processing reduces lactose to a minimum, which prevents stomach upsets. With Bugalugs you give your four-legged friend a tasty, clean and functional experience that supports fresh breath and oral hygiene.

Feeding guidelines

Recommended for daily use as a healthy treat or reward. Always choose the product size according to your dog's weight and breed.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The product label (Himalayan Cheese Bones) must remain in its original form on the packaging.

Frequently asked questions

Question 1: Are these extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews safe for lactose-intolerant dogs? Yes. During the traditional production process the whey is fully separated, which removes most of the lactose. Drying for 3 months reduces lactose levels to a minimum, making every chew an easily digestible, safe alternative. Question 2: What should I do with the small leftover piece of the chew so that it isn't swallowed? When the chew has been gnawed down to a small end piece, take it from your dog and put it in the microwave for about 90 seconds (or until it has puffed up completely like popcorn). Let it cool completely and give it back to your dog – it will get a crunchy, completely safe treat. Question 3: Can young puppies chew these yak and cow's milk chews? Yes, the product is extremely well suited as a soothing chew for young puppies over 4 months of age. Gnawing the chew helps relieve gum pain and itching while milk teeth are replaced by permanent ones.

Expert tip

If your dog quickly loses interest in its toys or tends to chew shoes when left alone, offer these Bugalugs extra-hard Himalayan cheese chews only when you are going out or need it to be kept busy. The high density and unique milky aroma will quickly grab its attention. Don't forget the microwave trick: turning the last hard piece into crunchy popcorn means you won't waste a single gram of the product, while eliminating the risk of choking. For complete oral hygiene, combine daily with Bugalugs dental water additive or fresh breath spray.
