According to some articles I've read lately, this seems to increase the
likelihood of bloat. I don't know how prevalent it is in pyrs. We've not
had a problem with it. Our pyrs have always been fairly slow eaters, and
we always feed adults twice a day. Even then, they'll often leave some and
come back to it later. I don't know about others, but ours often lie down
to eat. We do keep an eye out for problems, but, as I say, it's not been a
problem so far.
