I wouldn't use them, although they made a new formula the new formula still isn't 100% digestible, and a small piece that isn't 100% digestible could lodge in the intestine, and cause an obstruction. Large breeds with bigger intestines wouldn't as likely have a problem with a tiny piece, but Yorkie's intestines are much smaller in diameter, and a small piece could cause difficulty. Symptoms to watch for are constipation, lack of appetite, and vomiting. With an obstruction, gangrene can set in, and the results are often deadly.

Bully sticks are much safer.
