Re: Teeth Cleaning
Did you give her raw bones or cooked bones? We only feed raw bones, as they don't splinter.
Was it only the bones or was there meat on them too? The amount of meat on the bone should be be AT LEAST the same ration as a chicken wing.
If she swallows things whole - beat the chicken wing (or other raw meaty bone) with a hammer so the bones break into small pieces and feed small pieces at a time. Or, get a good grip on the one side of the RMB with pliers, and let her start eating on the other side. Don't let go of the RMB. She won't be able to swallow it, and will have to chew.
