I've been wondering about this too. Zephyr seems to like his food (he's been eating it for a couple weeks now) but he does sometimes make some weird noises after he's done and some burping like sounds later. I thought maybe it's because he gulps it down real quick, but could those things be indicators that it isn't sitting well with him? His poop looks fine, going 1-2 times a day, and his coat looks nice. By the way, I feed him Wellness Small Breed.

It really sounds like he's eating too fast. Try scattering the food over the floor, or feeding in a treat dispensing ball, or a muffin tin to slow him down and see how he does Or even pull up a chair and hand feed slowly
