I did get one for Axl when he was smaller, he used to do the same thing, it actually felt like he would hold his breath and swallow until it was all gone rather than breath and chew! Anyway, we got a slow down bowl but he realised that if he just flipped it over all the food would come out and he could hold his breath and inhale off the floor!  Rolling Eyes 

They are a good idea but didn't work for me I'm afraid..

Yes, they are a good idea, you could also try stuffing the food in a kong, this will slow her down too.
