Contempo Dog Bowl Booster

Bauhaus meets Bowser. The Chicago Museum of Architecture and Design gave this bowl set a good Design Award. This elevated dog feeder works with Lil Pup and Big Pooch bowls, raising them off the floor in high modern style.

• Made of gleaming 18/10 surgical grade stainless steel

Why elevated?
Elevated feeders help prevent dogs from gulping their food, which may cause gas and in rare cases, a condition called GDV (or bloat). They also are more comfortable for older pets with stiff muscles or joints. All dogs and owners benefit from cleaner feeding areas—your dog won’t have to lift his or her head as far to swallow, so less food and water will end up on the floor. Raised bowls also eliminate water and food getting trapped underneath, which can harbor bacteria and ruin floors.

Stainless steel is very resistant but not impervious to rust. Frequent cleaning with mild soap and water and a cotton cloth is required. Occasionally, stainless steel will develop corrosion or discoloration due to environmental conditions but can usually be restored. To minimize discoloration or corrosion, avoid cleansers containing chloride (as well as salts), avoid contact with iron (such as steel wool pads) and do not clean with concentrated soap.

Like the look and it puts the bowl at the right height for my (ever growing) standard poodle pup. Also keeps the bowl in place. Comes with rubber rings for the rims, which I didn't know, but, decided to use. Not sure how long I'll use them but so far so good. Get lots of comments on the looks, and I like that the bowls are up and out of the way. Very happy.
