Yeah, the problem with Yorkie noses is that they're so tiny you can't see very far. But, yeah, the vet had a good medical light and shined it up there without seeing anything. I did the same thing with a flashlight right after it happened.

With big dogs, the first line of treatment would be to sedate and fish around up there with a forceps. But Yorkies are so tiny it's apparently not practical.
