Swallowing them whole

Could anyone tell me how to stop my puppy from swallowing biscuits whole, we give her things like shapes and other biscuits about the same size and she doesnt chew at all she just swallows them. She is only small i dont know how she does it.

Try giving her larger biscuits (the bone-shaped ones are good) and hold on to one end while she has a go at the other end. Strange as it may sound, some puppies do need to be taught to chew biscuits & bones, but they never seem to have a problem with shoes, chair legs, etc.
