In the mean-time feed her something light (as soon as she will eat) like chicken or white fish and rice.
Hope she feels better soon : )
dont let her drink too much water all at once or she will continue to vomit, she needs small sips often and no food for 12/24 hours. i agree with orange gnome about the raw hide it will take the stomach much longer to digest so it may sit in the stomach for longer upsetting her like it sounds it has.
if she cant keep small sips of water down then you need to contact a vet as theres a slight chance the raw hide could cause an obsrtuction esp if her stomach seem s a little bloated.
if in doubt give you vet a call all vets have to provide an emergency service so give them a call to put your mind at rest.
let us konw how puppy is
Don't let a puppy this young have rawhide unless SUPERVISED, well any dog should not have rawhide unless supervised, rawhide doesn't digest hardly at all, if taken it to big of a chunk it sits in the stomach and then doesn't move, the stomach tries to move it along and it can block the intestines, which then you are in the vet for surgery and maybe pup survives. Hope he threw it all up.
There are different things they can have instead. Nylabones, Kong toys (stuffed with kibble and using a can of puppy food as a treat, seal up end of Kong and freeze it). Always supervise new things you give your pup to chew, don't let it get a big chunk off.
I don't give my dog rawhide at all, she is an aggressive chewer and would bite off chunks so it's a no no around here. I have seen too many dogs come in for surgery to remove rawhide. At 3 months old your puppy is still developing it's insides and is not ready for ingesting certain things so use caution.
