    Here are a few tried and true methods to curb gulping:

    - Wet the food down or include some mushy add-ins. Mashed bananas, boiled carrots and peas, bits and pieces of meat, and even a bit of peanut butter are all excellent supplements.

    - Use either an obstruction. Take a bit of chain link and coil it into your dog's food bowl or drop a few tennis balls in the dish. Don't try a bundt pan. Your dog will simply eat around it.

    - Use a large flat pan instead of a bowl.

    - If you have multiple dogs, separate them in different rooms so there is no competition.

    - Feed frequent small meals in toys specifically made for holding food/treats, i.e. Kongs or Jessika's suggestion of a Buster Cube.

    I think sometimes when dogs eat after they've been for a long walk or just a walk in general they sometimes throw up. This has happened with Benji before. I think the hot weather also has an affect on it as well.

    Its really weird because when i feed her meat or canned food or anything but dry food she doesnt seem to throw up as much. she mainly does when its dry food, i think she just gulps the dry food up quicker then any other kind of food. she chews and eats anything though so im not suprised in a way that she throws up.

    I suggest taking her to the vet, they'll be able to tell you exactly what's wrong with your puppy.
