Key points in choosing dog food bowls

The best things for dogs to eat and drink are stainless steel, aluminum or plastic. The bottom should be heavy and the edges should be thick to prevent tipping when eating. It is best not to use fragile ceramic products and glass products to prevent injuries to dogs; in addition, it is not recommended to use iron products that are easy to rust.

1. The focus of dog food bowl selection:

1. The size and shape of the dog’s food bowl should be determined according to the size of the dog’s body and the size and shape of its mouth and nose. Those with long muzzles can use something deeper, and those with short muzzles can use something shallower. In addition, dog food items should have a smooth surface and are easy to clean and disinfect.

2. Some automatic feeding and watering bowls are very suitable for those dog owners who don’t have time. Their purpose is: dogs can eat at any time, so dog owners can leave home all day without worrying about their pets running out of food. However, there are drawbacks: if your dog likes to wolf down all the food, then this kind of food bowl may make your dog grow very fat.

3. Food bowls should be cleaned daily to avoid bacterial growth. It is best to prepare another set of food bowls for rotation when cleaning the food bowls. When the food bowl is scratched, it should be replaced immediately to avoid bacterial growth.

Two. Comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of food bowls made of different materials:

1. The stainless steel food bowl is strong and durable, which is very practical for dogs who like to bite the food bowl. Clean and easy to clean, it is the first choice of many veterinarians.

2. Ceramic basins are suitable for dogs who like to move their food basins around. The quality of ceramic is relatively light, so it can prevent the food bowl from sliding around on the floor while the dog is eating. Pottery pots are more durableHowever, because the surface is not very smooth, it needs to be wiped off every day to keep it clean. Because bacteria can easily grow in scratches, it is a little troublesome.

3. There are many types of plastic pots, they are very light, unbreakable, and relatively cheap. However, this kind of food bowl is not suitable for dogs who like to chew the food bowl, because they can easily bite off small plastic fragments and swallow them.
