    Soak the food in water then, she can't inhale soaked food. Also it's easier to digest and prevents bloating.

    One more thing, then I will shut up..... You could even put a raw egg in with Roxy's small kibble if you are afraid she will choke. Just a thought.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    Wait.. your Mom is going to be buying you a $500 camera (when she's unemployed and has no money to get the dogs heartworm preventative and other shots except for rabies) and you can't buy better food?

    Oh and another thing Maggie eats the same kind of kibble as the little ones and she does fine on small bites.

    Also you might want to take a cookie sheet and put the kibble on there spread out so it takes longer to eat.

    Molly used to inhale too.

    We either

    1) Fed her meals to her kibble by kibble or
    2) Every 3 seconds, we would cover her food with our hands and told her "sit", waited 3 seconds, and let her go back to her bowl, and then repeat.

    Now she eats slower than Mickey, and I thought he was the slowest.

    Since Lily is getting close to a year old maybe you can get a huge bag of kibble they can both eat. Innova has very small bites, I just bought a HUGE bag for both dogs...It was 30 something, no doubt it will last my dogs 2 or 3 months. I am mad now about why I bought such a big bag because it will probably go stale before they eat it.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    There is absolutely no reason for you to roll your eyes at anyone. No one has said anything for you to do so since your previous "apology" post.

    I do hope you do what's best for your dogs in the near feature. I was very proud of you when I saw you were changing their food, taking better care of Roxy, etc.. but now you're back at square one it seems.

    I think pretty much a majority of the members here feel the same.

    I said I'm doing what I can right now, and I wish you people would just stay out of it now. I got the opinions I asked for and it's been settled.

    I'm sorry everything's changed since a little while back. Everything's changed for me ever since the reason my mom's been out of work. My life has been so full of stress, I've given up wanting everything (hence the reason I got the bettas).. and yeah. Long story short, I'm trying..
