himalayan churpi chews for dogs
churpi chews for dogs, done the traditional way. chawpaw churpi is a himalayan hard cheese chew made from 100% pure cow milk, pressed and dried until it takes real effort to get through. no rawhide, no grains, no preservatives. just one ingredient and hours of quiet chewing.
what is a churpi chew?
churpi (choor-pee), also spelled chhurpi, is a traditional hard cheese from the himalayas. milk is boiled, pressed to remove moisture, then dried and hardened over weeks into a dense block. dogs work it slowly, softening it layer by layer rather than biting pieces off, which is why one chew lasts hours instead of seconds. the scraping action helps clean teeth along the way. if you have seen these sold as yak chews or himalayan dog chews, this is the same thing under a different name.

singles or 3-packs
start with a single chew to see how your dog takes to it. once you know their size, the 3-packs cost less per chew and keep the drawer stocked at 2 to 3 chews per week.
nothing goes to waste
when the last piece gets too small to hold safely, take it away, soak it, and microwave it. it puffs into a crunchy cheese treat. full method on the churpi puff hack.
