I have been seeing these slow feed bowls for a while now and wanted to try them so I jumped at the chance to get this one to review. I was asked to give my honest opinion on how it performed for me and share my thoughts on it. If you have never seen this type of bowl before, it is designed to slow your pet down while they are eating by making it more challenging to get the food out too quickly. If the pet eats too fast, it could cause digestion issues, weight problems and can even result in death.
The bowl is made from a BPA & BHT free food grade plastic so it is safe for your pets. The bowl can be cleaned in the dishwasher but should be placed on the top rack only. This bowl is best suited for small to medium sized dogs weighing from 5 to 90 pounds. It has non-skid pads on the bottom of the bowl which prevents the bowl from sliding or damaging floors.
I was so excited to try this bowl so I washed and dried it then put a serving of my dog's favorite food in the bowl and called him to eat. My dog absolutely wanted nothing to do with eating from this bowl. I tried for several days to get him to eat from it. I took away his normal bowl and just left out this bowl. He would walk up to the bowl, look at it and then walk away. He would go lay in his bed and give me the sad eyes with a sigh. He would rather not eat than use this bowl. I am not exactly sure why he didn't like it. Maybe it was the color or he was confused by the design or something else.
As soon as I received this bowl, my daughter thought it was a marble maze and immediately wanted to use it to play with her marbles. She was so disappointed when I told her it was a pet food bowl. When my dog refused to eat from it, I thought about giving it to her but I noticed on the back of the packaging, it said not to let children play with it. I am wondering why it is safe enough for the powerful jaws of a large dog but not safe enough for a child to handle. I decided against letting her use it and donated it to our local pet rescue to use instead.
