Company of Animals GREEN Mini Slow Interactive Feeder for Dogs, Best Fun Slow Feeder Dog Bowl, Anti-Gulp, Gobble Stopper, Mental Stimulation Dog Puzzle, Suitable for Puppy & Small, Medium & Large Dogs

This is a brilliant product, well designed and the dogs love it. Eating time is greatly extended. It has even worked with one of my dogs who used to be very reluctant to get out of bed and eat his breakfast - now he's there - no problem! It works just as well with wet or a mixture of both wet and dry food. Little more difficult if you want to add any tablets, not so easy to hide them. There are a few more considerations before you buy, especially if you have several dogs. These feeders are very big and the dogs need plenty of room to get all round them without getting into each others space - can't just stick it in a corner. Also they are not ideal if you are in a rush, although you can speed the time up just putting food round the outer edges but this defeats the object slightly. I agree with the comments that cleaning can be bit of a challenge (amazed how many people don't clean after each use?!) I have found it best to wash promptly before any residue has time to dry on. A good wash in hot soapy water (can do in a bowl, clean one half then flip it round) with the aid of a silicone pastry brush, this is perfect for cleaning round the surface and nodules, Rinse and leave up on their side to drain and dry - job done (a dish drainer is useful if you have more than one to wash). A final point to bear in mind - if your dog has "spaniel type ears" they can get quite dirty and wet, so if you don't want smelly, matted ears you'll need to give them a brush at the end of the day (if you don't already). I consider the aforementioned as minor negatives compared with the pleasure and aid to digestion the dogs gain. I can't praise the feeder enough!

I own a Jack Russell Terrier; I got him at nine months old from Battersea dogs home. They told me that he was found wandering the streets. I think this is the reason he scoffs his food (as he has been hungry in his life). He is now 5 years old and there have been a couple of incidents where he has regurgitated his food as he does not chew it. I asked the Vet to check out his teeth and there was nothing wrong with them and said that there’s not much I can do about it as he was a rescue dog and there was probably a period in his life where never knew where the next meal was coming from so he just scoffs.I used to breed JRTs many years ago. The JRT I had before this one developed ‘stomach bloat’, which is a serious and life threatening condition. He was 17 years old at the time (very old for a dog), and I was told he would probably not survive it. He did get over it after a 2 week stay at the Vet. Sadly he was never quite the same after and passed away 2 weeks after I got him back home.IF YOUR DOG BOLTS HIS FOOD AND ALSO NEVER CHEWS IT – and you want to avoid stomach bloat – (believe me it is the most upsetting thing and the dog is in extreme pain), then this is where this very intelligent dog feeder comes into its own.I have to say I was a bit sceptical when ordering. I thought that he would tip it over and start throwing it about, but the design keeps it on the floor and its reasonably weighty and ergonomically designed, so it stays on the floor and does not dig in the dogs mouth whilst he is eating. (I ordered the small one and it was fine for my JRT). It works well with wet or dry food and my dog actually loves it.As a bonus it gives him something to think about, and gives him a little bit of a challenge, and it definitely 100% stops him bolting his food.A fantastic product a well deserved 5 stars

I purchased this feeder for my 16 month Boxer dog. Very pleased with the product overall, has certainly slowed down her eating, no more gobbling, and she continues to enjoy her food and has no concern (and possible enjoyment) that her food is a little more difficult to get at ! I purchased this feeder, rather than smaller ones, given it takes her food portion easily. It is dishwasher safe, but takes up a lot of space in the dishwasher and is a little awkward to clean by hand (washing it immediately after use helps with that as food particles don't stick), and the only other disadvantage is its size for travel purposes, and the fact that food pushed outside the feeder messes up the floor, so I would suggest purchasing it with a lipped mat or tray (or feed outside).

The media could not be loaded. Best dog bowl ever, works perfectly for my dog she doesn’t scoff and choke on her food anymore, definitely worth the money would buy again if I get another dog, it does slip slightly on the ground but otherwise very sturdy and it’s great for keeping your dogs little minds going, if you have a smaller dog and get a big bowl they can dig out dry biscuits with there feet so it’s rewarding to get the food :)

Works well, certainly slowed down our young labrador's feeding; before we got this she was making herself choke by bolting the food down so quickly. It's not especially easy to clean but that's probably true of all the slow feeding bowls, we use a toothbrush when hand washing, plus a run in the dishwasher every now and then. The plastic is slightly brittle - this order was our second one, the first one broke when we accidentally dropped it. But we liked it enough to buy it again.

Wow, this product is great! A friend had the mini one for her dog so we thought we would try the larger for our lab!He normally eats in about 20 seconds!!! (Very greedy boy) but with this clever inventions it takes about 5 mins at least! Really good as it fills him up and makes him use his brain to get the food! Really is amazing for Labs!!We also have a springer who we tried it on but he physically cannot get his tongue through the holes, so definitely make sure you order the right size - this one is perfect for bigger dogs!! Don't be put off when it arrives and it looks huge and like a dinosaur! Its really not that bad and you get used to it very quickly!Utube also have great videos on this!!Such a great find!! :) Happy Customer!
