What is an elevated dog bowl?
In this post, we’re chatting about what defines an elevated dog dish, why you might want to consider one, and how to choose the best one for your pet.
What Are Elevated Dog Bowls?
Elevated dog bowls are dishes raised off the ground to the dog’s level. They are designed to increase the food and water off the floor so the pet can enjoy it without stretching, bending, or struggling. These dog bowl stands are ergonomically built and are made to promote good posture. Often, pets find it easier to chew and swallow food, which improves their digestion. Most elevated dog bowls come as a set. Usually, the base is made of wood, poly, or wrought iron and comes with stainless steel dishes.
Why Consider A Raised Dish
Raised dog dishes have a host of benefits.
- Excellent for elderly or senior pets with arthritis or joint pain.
- A great option for pets recovering from surgery or dealing with other health issues.
- Eliminates mess and spills caused by active pets.
- An aesthetic alternative for modern homeowners who prefer a tidy feeding area.
- Comfortable and accessible for pets of all breeds.
- Customizable sizes to encourage the best posture.
How To Choose The Best
Choosing an elevated pet dish can be daunting because there are many styles, sizes, and kinds! Start by measuring your pet and determining the appropriate size for their height. After that, consider options that include stainless steel dog bowls. This ensures you won’t need to worry about germs, algae, or other harmful bacteria often harbored in plastic dishes.
We recommend thinking about other factors as you choose. Do you travel a lot? Choose an adjustable, collapsible raised dog stand so you can take it with you.
Is home decor and a modern home interior important to you? Look into trendy and stylish options that will fit into your home well.
If you want something simple, select something that is of good quality and will be durable for years.
We hope you have enjoyed learning about what an elevated dog bowl is, and that you find something that is a perfect fit for you and your pet!
