Many dogs eat too rapidly, which can cause bloat, discomfort and other digestive issues, including canine obesity. The Dog Games Slo-Bowl Slow Feeder promotes natural eating habits. Its unique design with large interior indentations work to slow eating, while a rubber base keeps the bowl from moving around. Dogs learn to "chase" their food through a maze of ridges and valleys, which makes dinnertime feel more like a hunt. And, because the Slo-Bowl "rewards" their play with bits of food, dogs become more and more engaged as the meal goes on. Foraging for every bite, furry friends eat a healthier, more balanced meal.
Sizes and Color designs:
Bloat kills around 20,000 dogs every year, and is typically attributed to rapid eating. Dogs that eat too fast also tend to overeat, which has led to increases in canine obesity. Being overweight, in turn, increases a dog's risk for cardiac disease, heat stroke, and respiratory conditions. Veterinarians across the country agree that slower feeding is safer feeding.
The bowl was designed with a rubbery base to prevent the bowl from sliding or moving around on the floor while the pet is eating. The rubber bottom also creates a firm grip on slippery surfaces to prevent the bowl from tipping and prevents spills. It is dishwasher safe and is rust and bacteria resistant. BPA & PVC free. Do not microwave.
