Rawhide is a very dangerous chew toy for yorkies. The pieces can break off and become lodged in your yorkies airway and kill him. Also, large chunks can be swallowed and cause blockage in your yorkies' intestinal tract, only to have to have an operation done to remove it. This operation is also dangerous, but has to be done in this case. NEVER give your yorkie rawhide treats.
