He did some tests, blood work and x-rays and it turned out that the raw hide got backed up in her system. They had to surgically remove the large mass it formed - sort of like a mass of gum but it was raw hide. So I would recommend to stay away from it - especially w/ little dogs.
Wow thanks for the info, no more Hides for Baci
