Pw Slow Feeding Bowl

Product Details

Capacity refers to the bowl’s approximate internal volume. The correct size depends on the actual meal portion, kibble shape, wet-food texture and the dog’s muzzle size.

The 1000ml option is approximately 18cm in diameter, while the 1500ml option is approximately 22cm in diameter. Allow enough floor space around the bowl for the dog to approach comfortably.

Colour may vary according to the selected stock option. Choose the variation displayed with the product image.

A slow feeder is not suitable as a chew toy. Remove it after the meal if the dog tends to bite or carry bowls.

Materials and Safety

The bowl uses a sturdy plastic construction with moulded internal feeding obstacles. Inspect the complete bowl before every use, especially if the dog has previously chewed feeding equipment.

• Place the bowl on a stable, level surface.
• Check for cracks, chips and sharp edges.
• Do not allow the dog to chew the bowl.
• Choose a size suited to the dog’s muzzle.
• Supervise the first several meals.
• Wash away food residue after use.
• Replace a damaged or deeply scratched bowl.
• Keep the bowl away from direct heat.

Very short-muzzled dogs may find some obstacle patterns difficult to access. Observe whether the dog can reach the food comfortably without scraping the nose or becoming frustrated.

The bowl is intended to moderate eating pace, not to prevent every case of choking, vomiting or bloat. A dog with repeated digestive symptoms needs veterinary assessment.

Deep scratches can hold food residue and make cleaning more difficult. Replace the bowl when its surface can no longer be cleaned properly.

Do not use the slow feeder for a dog that aggressively guards food unless a qualified behaviour professional has helped establish a safe feeding plan.

Size and Feeding Guide

1. Measure the dog’s normal meal volume.
2. Choose a bowl that holds the meal below the obstacle height.
3. Place the bowl on a level, non-slip feeding area.
4. Spread food evenly around the raised sections.
5. Supervise the dog during the first meals.
6. Check that the muzzle reaches the food comfortably.
7. Wash and dry the bowl after feeding.

The 500ml bowl suits compact portions. The 1000ml and 1500ml options provide more room for larger meals and wider muzzles.

When introducing the bowl, begin with familiar food and avoid packing the meal tightly. The dog should be able to succeed without becoming distressed.

Wet food can be pressed between the raised sections, while kibble can be scattered evenly through the pattern. Avoid overfilling either format.

If the dog gives up, flips the bowl or becomes highly frustrated, use an easier feeding setup and introduce the slow feeder more gradually.

Fresh drinking water should remain available separately. The slow-feeding bowl is intended primarily for food rather than continuous water access.
