Hi there, and welcome to YT!

How old is your yorkie? What is her name? I would love to see a few pictures of her!

Do not give her rawhide, greenies, or any of the commercial "chew bone" products-these can be a choking hazard, they can make them sick, and many of them are not good for dogs from a nutritional standpoint. Make sure not to give latex toys, especially those made in China-they can have lead paint on them, which can be toxic.

Try giving her a kong toy-with a little Kong Stuffin, cheese, or peanut butter inside. A rope toy is great, as are the Orka toys-they are usually a combination of rope & soft rubber. You can add treats to the holes in it to get her interested in the toy. When my two were teething as puppies, they liked a plain old sock with a few ice cubes inside-I just dropped the ice in, and knotted the sock above them-the cold felt good on their little gums.
