Does your dog get so excited at meal time that they eat a bit too fast? Watch this Hound Hack trick to train them to eat more slowly.

• To help your dog slow down and enjoy every last bite, place a ball in the middle of their food bowl. Make sure the bowl is not too small that they could swallow or choke on it.
• The ball becomes a fun obstacle and your dog will have to keep moving it around to eat their meal.
• But beware - extra clever dogs who may be able to push the ball out of the bowl.
