How long do you grind/soak puppy food for your litters? We just  had the most 
heartbreaking experience with a 10 wk old puppy. He choked  to death on his 
food. It has never happened to us before and we are just  devastated. We use 
those large puppy pans to feed and the puppy food is  small kibble. He just 
gobbled too fast and choked. There was absolutely  nothing we could do. Just a 
horrible experience. We are? trying to learn  something valuable from the list 
to 
try and prevent this from ever  happening again. Thanks.


What a terrible experience Brenda, so sorry.
Until pups hit 3 months, I soak about 20 minutes before they eat it  and be 
sure there is still moisture in the food which will help it go  down.   Pups 
just starting to eat , it is soaked a bit  longer.
I would think it is about time to change them to individual bowls so  the 
competition doesn't have then gulping it down so fast  perhaps
