    Hi,

    Our puppy is 14 weeks old , and he isnt calmly eating his good.
    His bowl is empty in seconds, he doesn't chew on his food.

    What can we do , to slow him down while eating.
    Somebody told us fill his bowl full of good and Let him eat alle he wants.

    Please help us.

    Allocate all or a significant portion of his food for training. Every time he does something you want more of, click or say Yep. Then give him a food treat. Ensure he gets the daily required food intake by training him over a number of short sessions each day. Have fun.

    Slows him down and you get a well-trained dog.

    I always keep some of my dog’s food back as rewards. Plus she has all her food in food dispenser toys, snuffle mat, stuff kongs, licky mat, kong wobbler, slow feeder puzzle bowls, …. There are plenty out there on the internet and they keep her busy too .
