Aww bless her. Her eyes don't seem to bulge out too much on the photos but she's definitely got the trademark dome head hasn't she. Be careful with bread as it swells a lot, even in the throat

Their teeth can be brittle so I'm unsure about chewing as a tooth might break but at the same time she'll be going for regular checkups anyway. In the ideal situation you'd want her to lead as much as a normal life as possible.
She may associate chewing with pain if her teeth were that bad so may be reluctant to try and food is a way to any animals heart
