Lekali Dog Chew (Churpi) & Its Antiquity

Legend has it that in ancient times the Tibetan Mastiffs were kept as guardians of monasteries in the Himalayas. Due to Monks being vegetarians, these Mastiffs were fed Churpi high-protein chew for nutrition. As a result, they were thought to be strong enough to break metal shackles if they anticipated any threat to them or their master.

Using this ancient recipe passed down over generations, the hardened cheese-churpi is hand-made at over 15,000 feet in the foothills of Himalayas. To preserve the nutrition of milk, and to substitute the low availability of vegetables, Churpi is still popular as food in these regions thoroughly enjoyed by both humans and pets alike.
