Plate Eats food, still intact

Please help. Pikko is 14.5 weeks old. He has a regular diet and normal stool. However, I notice when he eats, he practically inhales it! Not only that, I hear him chew the first couple of kibbles (Purina Puppy Chow), and then he stuffs his face into his bowl and swallows the rest!!!

I asked my breeder about this. She says it might be better to free feed him. Once he's full, he'll leave the rest of the food alone until he's ready to eat again. This might give him more incentive to chew his food so he doesn't act like a starving wolf...

What do you guys think? Is there another reason this is happening? Do you have any alternative solutions?
