YAK CHEWS VS PLUTOS
WHICH ONE IS BETTER FOR YOUR DOG?
When it comes to choosing the right chew for your dog, two names often come up: traditional yak chews and innovative Plutos cheese chews. Both are made from dairy, both are long-lasting, and both claim to be safe.But the differences between them are bigger than they seem — especially when safety, digestion, nutrition, and sustainability matter.Below, we break down how they compare so you can choose the best option for your dog.
Plutos — cleaner formula, functional benefits, gentle on digestion.

WINNER
1. INGREDIENTS
& NUTRITION
Yak chews are usually made from a mix of yak and cow milk, sometimes with salt and lime juice. Because they are dried for long periods, they become very hard and dense — which can make them last long, but also makes them difficult to digest and risky for teeth.
Plutos are made from European casein, a high-quality milk protein with benefits for muscles, bones, coat, and dental health.They contain no rawhide, no lactose, and are enriched with functional amino acids — making them not just a chew, but a nutritional treat.
2.
SAFETY & DENTAL HEALTH
Plutos — safer hardness level and designed for tooth-friendly chewing.
Because of their extreme hardness, yak chews can lead to:
-
Fractured teeth
-
Gum irritation
-
Choking hazards when they break into sharp chunks
Plutos are firm, but not rock-hard. They soften while being chewed, helping clean teeth without damaging them. The texture was engineered to avoid splintering, making them safer for small, medium, and strong chewers.
3.
DIGESTIBILITY
Plutos
Their dense structure makes digestion slow and sometimes difficult. Some dogs may experience stomach discomfort or pass large, undigested pieces.
Made from natural casein protein and processed specifically for high digestibility. They break down safely and are suitable even for dogs with sensitive stomachs.
4.
SIZES & CHEWING EXPERIENCE
Plutos — more variety and tailored options.
Available in limited sizes. Harder for puppies, seniors, or dogs with dental issues.
Plutos offers a wide range:
-
Puppy
-
Small, Medium, Large

-
Functional chews (Energy, Relax, Immune, Skin & Coat, etc.)
Each is formulated for different needs and chewing strengths.
5.
SUSTAINABILITY & PRODUCTION QUALITY
