That's hard to say. It could be that he is eating too fast. It could also be that something in the diet isn't good for his tummy. You may try purchasing a slow feeder to see if that helps. You can also look for a dish shaped kibble (like a frisbee). This shape often helps to slow down the eating. You may also try feeding a sensitive stomach kibble. If these things don't work or if he gets worse, have him examined by the veterinarian. I hope this helps.
