Try to teach some self control around food, such as when you have his meal ready in his bowl (pick the bowl up and get it ready elsewhere), make him sit and stay while you put it down. If he goes for it take it up again and make him sit once more. If you keep doing this he will soon realize he has to sit and wait nicely or the food won't go down. Then you can increase the time he has to wait and introduce a command to eat. As you build up this routine he will be able to sit for as long as you want until you tell ''OK.'' You need to teach the dog you are the boss of his food and make him do a command in order to earn his food. Try feeding him small meals throughout the day, so that large amount cannot be consumed at once. If they get too territorial over the food it could lead to aggression about food later.
