​​WE are a united US-Nepali team operating as a single integrated business​. Connected by family and friends, our firms' mission is to improve the lives of people and their pets by providing wholesome and all-natural dog treats crafted from hard dry cheese (Chhurpi).
​
Chhurpi is made in Nepal's eastern Himalayas using sustainable production methods. It contains just yak and cow milk, citrus, and salt as ingredients. The hard cheese provides a wholesome and protein-rich treat that is popular with consumers due to its shelf-life and nutritional value.
​
Our team has a decade's experience crafting dog treat products from Yak cheese (Chhurpi) and we manage the entire product life cycle: sales, dairy sourcing, production, quality control, logistics and distribution.
​
Our production expertise, ISO certifications, sound financials, and strong relationships with Nepali dairies differentiates Nepal Dog Treat from its competitors!
