Esau: When my lab Arlo was younger I had problems with the gorging food and water aspect of the breed. I started putting tennis balls or rubber toys/kongs in his food dish while he ate his kibble and because he had to eat around them it slowed him down. Maybe see if this helps with yours. I think that my dog has figured out that burping dogs is really funny to humans. He always seems to perch himself right in front of me before doing so and wags his tail furiously while I laugh and laugh. Smart boy...
