Dinner time!

Preston used to gobble down every meal like it was an Olympic’s race. Mommy has learned a simple trick to slow him down a little. Mommy places stuffed marrow bones (known to Preston as “donut bone”) in his bowl so he has to eat his food around them. This works very well. Preston now brings his donut bones to the kitchen when Mommy is getting his dinner ready. To make sure no meat juice is left behind, Preston even spends some time chewing the bone (and cleaning his teeth) at the end of each meal.

  6. […] Because Mommy always places a couple of “donut bones” in Preston’s dinner to prevent him from eating too fast, Preston has figiured out a way to tell Mommy he is hungry. […]

    you might want to find a brake fast bowl

    for Preston. I use one for Lenny who normally scarfs down food in less than a minute and this bowl really helps.
