Hi All,

So, Bentley has been on Fromm for quite awhile and loves it. The issue that I have or that he has is he does not chew his food. He inhales it. Lol. I have tried putting a golf ball in his bowl with his food and it still does not slow him down. And he also figured out how to remove it from the bowl. I then got a slow feeder device (not sure that's what it's called) and put in his bowl and that does not work. I am now thinking I need to find a food with larger kibbles and hope that he would be forced to chew. My concern is that he almost always vomits a small amount after he eats and the kibbles are whole. I am thinking this is because he rushes to eat. My yorkie Mason, takes about 5 to 7 minutes to eat whereas, Bentley takes about 30-40 seconds.

Thanks in advance for your responses.
