Maddy Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I used to use the plain stainless steel bowls but last year, I got the Derper Dog some of the Dogit bowls and now we're slowly replacing all the old stainless steels bowls with Dogit. Derper Dog has their raised bowl for his water and it was the best money I've ever spent. Incredibly heavy base with rubber coating (not the useless rubber rings some of the stainless steel ones have) and the base makes it high enough for him to drink from without having legs or anything else he could trip over. They also have a reasonable range of sizes, the Shitty Whippet has a treat bowl that looks small enough for a tiny dog. Oh, and the stainless steel bit comes out of the melamine base- so the eating bit can go through the dishwasher and the base can be wiped down by hand to prevent damage to the rubber base.

How far (approx) do you think the bottom of the actual bowl is off the floor? I've noticed Scottie prefers drinking from his crate bowl - which is elevated. Thinking about replacing his 'regular" food and water bowls with something higher - just not sure what. This might be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the bowl is half full, the water level sits at around 15cm above the floor. It doesn't sound like much but it means the tall Derper Dog can now just lower his head and drink like a normal dog, instead of having to do his weird kneeling thing.

Rascalmyshadow Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 The Dogit bowls are good (never knew the brand name) we had them for our big dogs, switched over to Rogz and Gummi pets for the little dogs, they are exactly the same but with cute patterns/pictures.
