Himalayan Pet Supply began in 2003 with two brothers, a friend and his dog, Kaos. Kaos discovered churpi and he loved it!
We spent the next four years re-engineering the people-grade cheese to make it lactose free and safe for dogs. In 2007, we launched our new dog chew at a small pet fair in Bellingham, Washington creating a new category in the industry, thus changing the dog chew class significantly.
By 2016, we became a leader in the industry as we expanded out into other pet categories, transforming our company from a single product oriented business to a pet supply company. We now offer retailers not just a single chew, but treats, toys and gear as well. Weve set our sights on outfitting your whole pack and becoming the top most trusted brand pet in the pet industry.
