    Should I be concerned that my bully doesn't chew her food?

    She just inhales it. Really. Just now, she had a very holy terror puppy moment where she was jumping, biting everything, barking, running around in circles, biting some more, etc...then she started heaving and her breakfast came up. It was all completely whole (and obviously wet). Concerning?

    For the past week or so, every night when it's time to go to bed, Bocephus starts throwing a fit - like a toddler.

    What's the best way to react to this? (Barking displeasure)

    When Bella is unhappy or when she wants attention, she will bark her displeasure at me. For example, if I'm on the couch and she's on the floor, she'll put her front two paws on the couch, stand on her hind legs, and bark at me. I've been ignoring her and then giving her attention only when...
