Do you think she weighs around 5-6 pounds? If so, that would be pretty small and would warrant even closer monitoring.

Do you have any Nutrical you can give her occasionally so she doesn't become hypoglycemic from not eating? A little sugar in her water or karo syrup placed under the tongue would help.

Fasting for 24 hours is a usual recommendation for some yorkies, but the tinier yorkies might not do well in that situation.

Do stay away from ham or roast beef. Ham is a no-no for yorkies. Their little pancreas can't handle that fat meat. I would stick to chicken chopped up very fine and if she shows any inclination in eating, you could try feeding it to her using your fingers.

I'm sorry your folks won't take her to the vet. She may be ok, though. Stuff like rawhides are just harder on some little one's than others.
