Eating too fast, also known as 'scarf and barf,' can lead to vomiting, gastric upset, or in very rare and severe cases, bloat. To slow your dog down, consider using a slow-feeder bowl with ridges or obstacles that force them to eat smaller amounts at a time. Alternatively, you can scatter their food over a wide, clean surface, or use puzzle toys that dispense food gradually. Feeding smaller, more frequent meals can also help. Monitor your dog for other digestive symptoms, and speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.Clinically Approved Standard by Dial A Vet Veterinary Team
