Slow Feeder Bowl

A bowl with ridges, so a portion is not one mouthful.

A dog bowl with a maze of raised ridges moulded into the base. Dry food falls into the channels between them, so your dog takes the kibble out piece by piece rather than lifting the whole portion at once.

Why it is built this way

A slow feeder is only useful if the dog can still reach the food. Our specification sets the channels wide enough for a normal muzzle to get into and deep enough that the kibble does not simply spill over the top, in a plastic that survives a dishwasher instead of clouding and cracking within a month.

Care

Dishwasher safe. The manufacturer rates the plastic from -45 °C to 135 °C, so either rack is within range and so is the freezer. Rinse after dry meals, wash properly after anything wet.

Good to know

If your dog gives up or cannot reach into the channels, this bowl is the wrong shape for them. Flat-faced dogs in particular need a wider channel than this one has — write to us before ordering and we will tell you honestly whether it will suit.

The manufacturer states the bowl is PP that meets food-contact safety requirements and contains no BPA, phthalates, lead or latex, but has not supplied an independent laboratory test report. We have asked for one, and this page will say so when we have it.
