“We have two dogs who get fed at the same time. One of them likes to help and picks up her bowl to bring to us when she's finished. Then if the other has drifted, she'll pick up his bowl and do the same. We have been through so many hard plastic bowls that have cracked under the pressure of those jaws. Metal bowls are too heavy for her and ceramic bowls are too fragile. These silicone bowls are the best. They're also great for traveling. We have backup Silipint bowls just in case she tears through one, but that has yet to happen...and it's been years.”
