Frisco Non-Skid Slow Feeder Dog & Small Pet Bowl

This bowl seems to hold up really well to the hard-gnawing of our lab. We used other slow feeder bowls for her, but the plastic broke into shards - this one doesn't even show tooth dents. We prefer the slow feeder bowl because it gives our lab some intellectual challenge - it is like a problem to solve - and it means she doesn't gulp down a bowl full of food in 30 seconds, which causes her to burp a lot.

Our 4 month old aussidoodle was eating his food like he was a little furry vaccuum.....so we got this, and it has been great. He got really angry the first time he used it and tried to scratch the food out, but now he does so well with it. He gets every last piece and eats SOOO much slower. I will probably purchase another slow feeder in a different shape to mix it up for him. Absolutely recommend this item to anyone whose pup inhales their food.

Our Aussie is VERY food motivated and tends to scarf her food down way too fast. Recently she was eating so fast that she choked and we had to provide the heimlich maneuver. This was absolutely terrifying and luckily she is doing well after. Not wanting to have this ever happen again I immediately went on Chewy.com and ordered three "slow feeder" bowls. She was a little baffled at first but has figured it out and seems to enjoy the challenge. Most importantly is slows her eating down to a more reasonable pace. I got three of these so that I can rotate them between cleanings so she always has a clean bowl. Cleaning them has not been too tricky and mostly I can wash them but they can go Our Aussie is VERY food motivated and tends to scarf her food down way too fast.

They do get a lot of saliva on them so I strongly recommend washing them between meals. Each bowl I purchased has a different pattern which is great for keeping things interesting! These have been great and I definitely recommend them. They will forever be a meal-time staple for our fur kid. … more

I got this for my great Dane, because we try to keep him from eating too fast to keep from getting bloat. I've used snuffle mats and different bobbles and thought I'd try this bowl out because his mat was well past it's prime and in pieces and it did not slow down his feeding at all! We put two cups in this bowl and he had it gone in a little over 2 minutes.... Other than having his food in a plain bowl, he has never eaten so fast. very disappointed

My dog was so quick to eat and never seemed to get full until this bowl helped him "taste" the food.

I have a boxer that finish his food in seconds. This helped spread his food out and slow him down. It’s also dishwasher safe!!

finally, my dog has to eat slowly and chew instead of swalowing whole and chocking.

My dog is very skittish/sensitive to sound and would only eat off a paper plate when I first adopted her, but she would gulp her food and be done in just one or two minutes. I was worried that this bowl wouldn't work or would still be too noisy, but she adjusted to it very well! Now it takes her around 10-15 minutes to finish her meals. The size is perfect for her - the bowl is large and the crevices are deep, making her really work for the food. This might not work as well for a dog with a short snout, though.

I got this for my dog who thinks that acting like a vacuum is an acceptable way to eat his food. He would finish his bowl of food in less than 30 seconds flat, while impressive, I was worried that he would choke so I bought this bowl so he would have to take some more time on, and hopefully chew, his food. It definitely has done what it's supposed to and now it takes him a few minutes to eat his meals. And now I can ease my worries about the problems that could arise with him eating his food too quickly. Definitely recommend for fast eaters.

I bought this slow feeder about 2 months ago because I have what is now a nine-month-old Pitbull. Her name is A i y a n a pronounced Eye-yan- na it means Endless Beauty in Cherokee. This dog can eat so fast I probably could win money betting on how fast she can eat. This is a great design this and I can see where it may help some dogs slow down while eating. The reason for purchasing this bowl is that I have three Pitbull ages 14, 4 and 9 months old. Aiyana my 9 month old even with the slow feeding Bowl still finishes her food before my other dogs, then her nose is all in the other's food bowls. Because i live in a camper putting them in separate rooms is not an option. So all I bought this slow feeder about 2 months ago because I have what is now a nine-month-old Pitbull.

Because i live in a camper putting them in separate rooms is not an option. So all my dog's have been trained to go to their place and wait till i place their food down and say when to start eating.. Aiyana's bowl is set down last. My problem is that with my 40 years of rescuing and training pitbulls sooner or later there will be a fight over the food ! I have say that for my situation and my knowledge of pitbull's this bowl is a huge fail as far as slowing this particular dog down. Sorry for the bad review however i have to call it like it is . I have given the slow feeder to a local rescue i associate with in hope that it may help another dog..... … more
