Freefa Slow Feeder Dog Bowl, Medium Breed, Puzzle Feeder, Maze Pattern, Food Grade Material, 340 ml, All Life Stages, Black, Includes Travel Bowl

We bought this for our new puppy who absolutely inhales his food. Worried he would choke, this has slowed him down considerably. It's sturdy and has a good weight to it. The design makes it difficult for a dog to pick up in their mouth, but if your dog is clever enough, they will be able to flip it. Thankfully ours is a goofball and hasn't figured that out yet.

Any animal with a flat snout will simply not be able to navigate this. I have a Scottish Fold cat that I adopted in July. He has a terrible habit of scarfing down all his food and then getting sick. I tried a food dispenser that would dispense in gradual amounts, but the smallest amount is still enough to get him sick. So I tried this bowl. I mean, I guess the bowl certainly does slow him down, because he can't actually get to all of his food effectively. The center is wide enough for him to reach the food, but anything that ends up in the spirals simply doesn't get eaten. Additionally, the bowl is not at all anti-skid. I have his feeder set to dispense at 5AM and woke up at 7AM to find the bowl across the room. He had very easily pushed it all over the place, so I'll have to place it back under the dispenser every time he moves it. Probably gonna see about returning this and giving another product a try.

My new grand-dog was just wolfing his food down, barely chewing at all, and then throwing up his dinner because he ate too fast. This bowl solved the problem! Now he eats at a safe pace, and he doesn't purge after eating anymore, and it's only been TWO DAYS! He's a large breed, exactly what breed(s) we aren't certain--yet. (We get his DNA test back sometime in the next two weeks.) The bowl seems sturdy enough, but we pick it up when it's empty so he doesn't chew it up because he could easily reduce it to silicone chips in minutes, if he really wanted to destroy his bowl. Luckily, he's kind of gotten the idea that if he brings grandma his empty bowl she WILL put some food in it, each and every time. Puppies and whelping (pregnant or nursing) females simply can never get enough to eat. They are ALWAYS HUNGRY. They aren't just pretending, they ARE hungry. I feel really good about this purchase, and it's going to help us to raise Tiger in the best possible way. We take our implied contract with our companion animals VERY seriously in my family. We know when we adopt a pet that s/he is our responsibility FOR LIFE. They get the best diet and veterinary care we can afford, toys they love, warm places to be when it's cold, and cool places to be when it's too hot. When they get older they get glucosamine treats and CBD oil to help alleviate the aches and pains of the elderly fur babies. And they are all VERY happy and healthy dogs, indeed, even the two 11 year-olds!

This bowl has honestly helped out a lot, I have a 4 month old American Bully and he was SWALLOWING his food which was causing bloating. With this bowl he has to work for it, and he takes his time and enjoys the food (and no more bloating!)

This bowl was pretty good but not for my dog who's a Lab/Pointer Mixed. She chewed through this bowl after 2 weeks of usage!

Wish I had this for my dog before she passed. She was so dam greedy lol I can imagine her being pissed that she can’t eat the food how she wants. I’m thinking about getting another dog.

It slows down the dogs by about 30 seconds, but they do love it:) Thanks

works very effective for my brother's puppy who eats way to fast.

Nous avons acheté ce produit car notre chien ( pitbull) mangeait très rapidement ( 5-8 secs et cetais fini )!! La première fois notre chien était un peu frustré, ne comprenait pas trop ce qu'il fallait faire, mais ça n'a pas été si long qu'il a trouvé. Depuis qu'on utilise la gamelle, il mange lentement. Il doit travailler pour manger sa nourriture. Maintenant ça lui prend 3-4mins manger. La gamelle est fait solide, semble être une bon produit fait pour duré un bon moment. Je recommande pour les chien qui mange trop rapidement, ça fait vraiment une différence !!. ( grandeur large pour notre chien pitbull)

arriver 1 jrs plus tard mais l'article est bien robuste, grand et de belle couleur

Perfect for our new Bull Mastiff Puppy - He was gulping his food in record time prior to getting this dish. He would get the hiccups every time after eating which is a hazard for large breed dogs as their stomach can flip. This bowl slowed his eating down to a couple minutes which is a bonus so I could feed the other dog before he is done. Both dogs finish about the same time now. The bowl itself is a very sturdy plastic - I removed the small plastic feet inserts on the bottom as the pup ended up taking them out to chew on....

I was a bit hesitant to buy this because i wasn't sure how easy it'd be to clean. But its actually much easier than i thought. The colour is pretty spot on. This bowl really works too. My dog went from eating in under 30 seconds to at least 2-3 minutes. That's probably the best I'm gonna get with a husky pup who inhales his food. He still eats too fast and burps after from taking in too much air. I will probably elevate the bowl somehow and really focus on training him to eat slower.

This would be good for a bigger dog but it was almost too deep for our puppy and she couldn’t really get the food out of it until she was almost 6 months old
