Super Design Mess Free 15° Slanted Bowl for Dogs and Cats, Tilted Angle Bulldog Bowl Dog Feeder, Non-Skid & Non-Spill, Easier to Reach Food S/0.5 Cup Dark Black

The one cup is the best size for cats. I found out the hard way by ordering smaller and larger first. These are really great for not making a mess. We have one rescue cat who the vet had to pull all her teeth due to problems, and she has a very hard time eating without making a mess. I always had to continue pushing the food back toward her to keep it from going over the opposite side of the bowl. Since I started using this type, she has not made a mess in the floor at all, and I don't have to continue helping her. I pat myself on the back for buying these for my animals.One reviewer had a problem with the band that is around the inside rim of the bowl not lasting. So far, I have had no problem with them, but I did think about them not lasting when I first opened the packages. However, my second thought was a wide rubber band would work the same way, a simple solution.Also, any animal larger than a five pound chihuahua needs a larger bowl than the ½ cup size. They are very sturdy and easy to clean too.

The medium is the perfect sized bowl for our 11 lb Shih Tzu, and I love the quality and the teal color. The stainless steel bowl is easily removable for cleaning, and the slanted design is the right height making it easy for him to eat.

We have a deaf/blind senior dog. The angled bowl and the non-slip aspects of this set-up are very good for her. The bowl doesn't slide along the floor as her other bowls do. I chose the 1 cup size - she's 12" at her shoulders and weighs 13 lbs. It's OK for her, but any dog larger than that would want the larger sized bowl. It is nicely made and sturdy. The only thing I dislike is that the rubbery band that keeps the stainless bowl from slipping around inside the base doesn't stay put. It slides off for cleaning and then it's a chore to get it reseated under the rim of the stainless bowl. Otherwise, it's a nice bowl and helpful.

Very nice bowl for my elderly Pug.he doesn't have to work so hard!

Great bowl. Exactly as advertised.

I bought the small bowl, because it's the appropriate size for the amount of food my dog eats.However, this is a bowl for civilized, dainty eaters. It is, as other reviewers have pointed out, really small, and very light. Much smaller than what you can visualize through the pictures.Truculent beasts like my elderly miniature Schnauzer push the thing around all over the place, which wholly defeats the purpose of making it easier for her to eat.It is also way too low for her to eat comfortably.I am not going to return it, because I still like the concept, and it does help somehow with making the food easier for her to pick, but I'm going to have to find a way to glue it to the raised platform where her regular bowls are.She eat ok when I held it in place with my hand.Still, the ideal bowl out of box would have been on an inclined platform at least three times as tall, and considerably heavier than this is, with really grippy rubber feet.

I am writing this review in hopes it will help someone who is trying to decide which size to purchase for their small dog(s). I spent WAAAAYYYY too much of my time trying to get the perfect size/configuration for my own three small dogs, so perhaps this review will save someone else from the same fate.First, let me say I love these bowls. The base is made of a nice and sturdy plastic, they have some weight to them, and their non-skid grips prevent them from sliding around on our hardwood floors. They stay in place while our dogs are eating. The food bowl itself is made of a nice stainless steel but do note it is not heavy weight. Perfect for our needs though.My goal was to purchase a bowl that prevents neck issues. While I liked the idea of a simple raised bowl, I discovered my dogs still had to bend their necks in the same fashion as they did while eating from a ground-level bowl. I like the idea of the 15 degree angle bowls, so I decided to go ahead with this particular brand.With regard to sizing, I first ordered the smalls for our two Chihuahuas and the medium for our Japanese Chin. While these sizes generally worked for them, I didn't feel the bowls offered enough of a change from their original bowls. So, I decided to watch our two Chihuahuas take turns at eating out of our Japanese Chin's medium-sized bowl and felt it was a much better fit; it was slightly higher and just gave them better body mechanics while eating. What I realized for the Chin is that, while technically the medium would work for him, I felt he could benefit from a slightly larger bowl for proper body mechanics, and more importantly, for his large head. Japanese Chins have a flat face and an overly large head. Although it would seem the large is too big for a seven pound dog, it is perfect for him! He has tons of room to fit his face in the bowl (no snout) and still has space on the sides for extra oxygen so that he can slurp and snort while he chows down his food.As a point of reference, I will give the measurements for our dogs:Chihuahua #1 is 5.5 pounds, slender and dainty, 8 inches from floor to top of shoulders. Size Medium is perfect for her.Chihuahua #2 is 6 pounds, squatty and bulky, 8.5 inches from floor to top of shoulder. Size Medium is perfect for her.Japanese Chin is 7 pounds, sleek and slender, 9.5 inches from floor to top of shoulder and has a round, wide, flat-faced head. Size Large is perfect for him.The first couple of times they ate from their bowls they weren't too sure, but they all quickly adapted and seem to love their new set-up. Hope this review helps!

Perfect size for a small chihuahua! Very stable and easy to clean with the bowl coming of
