Hi Erin-
I wouldn’t go the rawhide route. Especially, if she is being left unattended. I think they are too dangerous. I have two 80lb lab mix dogs and the only thing I would feel comfortable leaving them with unattended would be a stuffed Kong. They have attempted and have been successful at swallowing too many things they shouldn’t. I still crate my boys when they will be left alone for more than an hour or two in the house and they will be 4 years old in July. They go right in them when we leave for work in the morning… for a treat of course! I really don’t like the fact that they are in them for so long at times, but it is much safer for them and my house.
