Himalayan Yogurt Sticks Dog Treat - Plain is a soft coconut and yogurt stick, and the odd one out in the Himalayan range - it is not a long-lasting chew but a wellness treat, with prebiotics and probiotics added for gut support. It is soft enough for a puppy or an old dog with worn teeth, and in the plain version the flavour comes from the ingredient itself rather than from a sprayed-on coating.

No added flavour: the plain stick is the one to try first with a fussy dog or a dog you are keeping off bacon and peanut, and it has the highest fibre of the three.
-

About The Probiotics
- The pack does not declare a live-culture count, and nothing on a shelf in UAE heat holds its live cultures indefinitely. Treat the gut support as a small bonus on a nice treat, not as a dose.
- If your dog has an actual digestive problem - recurring loose stools, vomiting, weight loss - that is a vet conversation. A treat is not the answer, and waiting to see if one helps costs time.
- These are soft and fairly high in fibre, so introduce them a couple at a time rather than a handful on the first day.
Good To Know
- This listing is the plain stick.
- Treats of any kind should stay a small part of the day - around a tenth of the calories is the usual guidance. Take the difference out of meals rather than adding treats on top.
- Soft treats are easy to overdo because they go down quickly. Count them.
- Supervise your dog with it, as Himalayan ask. Soft does not mean swallow-proof - take the last short piece away rather than letting it be gulped.
- Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry cupboard. UAE humidity is what turns a crisp baked treat soft, so a clip or an airtight tub is worth the trouble.
- Himalayan recommend these for dogs over 12 weeks old.
- Fresh water alongside, always.
- Not for human consumption, and wash your hands after handling a chewed treat.
