my boy is a monster eater, the dog eats ANYTHING he gets in his bowl, its amazing and he does not CHEW

. I can eat a 6x4 inch piece of raw green tripe in 10 seconds and he never chokes. He eats a whole carrot in less than a minute

. Bandit takes about 20 minutes to eat about 1/20th of a carrot

. But scooby is one eater, I have to watch his intake as he can very well become obese if he continues to eat at this rate.

You may want to slow down his eating-this can make your dog sick, and in some cases could cause bloat, which is a serious condition. I wouldn't recommend feeding large quantities of food to a yorkie, and of course not as quickly as you say they are consumed.

CCP?

I wouldnt give him so much to consume at once..if he eats so fast you should portion out a small amount of food and thats all he gets...

CCP for sure..
