Is your four-legged friend eating too quickly?
There is nothing good about this. Excessive haste of the dog can lead to the pet choking.
In addition, eating food quickly does not contribute to its normal absorption. And haste is fraught with overeating.
How can you make your dog eat food properly?
No, it is not necessary to punish the dog and yell at it. After all, there is one simple and safe, but at the same time effective trick.
What to put in the bowl
Place a tennis ball in the container where the dog food was poured.
The presence of this object in the bowl will force the dog to eat food much more slowly.
The thing is that the pet will have to constantly move the ball around the container. And in such conditions, "reactive" absorption of treats becomes impossible.
What to do if the dog has removed the ball
In some cases, the tennis ball trick is ineffective.
After all, there are some pretty smart dogs that immediately understand: “You just need to remove this thing - and eating will become much easier.”
Your four-legged friend turned out to be smart and simply pulled the sports equipment out of the container?
Then you will have to replace the regular bowl with a special feeding toy. We are talking about a puzzle bowl, from which the dog simply will not be able to eat too quickly.
