I have a super energetic dogs and have collected countless enrichment items from kongs, slow feeders, toppls, freeze bones, lick mats, etc. you name it I probably have it. This is one of my favorites so far. It's easy to prepare and clean, feels sturdy so I don't feel like she's constantly eating pieces of plastic (she's inpatient so she uses her teeth instead of licking when I freeze her food) and if I freeze it with some water or bone broth it takes her a while to get through with all the compartments. Can't recommend enough!
Both of my dogs gobble down their food and this slows them down and also adds some mental enrichment. Great bowl!
Very durable slow feeder! Easy to clean and holds a lot of food.
I know this bowl is meant to hold food, but I used it for water in order to stop my cat from splashing water out of the bowl. I've tried everything and dozens of bowls. This one did the trick! If you have a cat who splashes, you have to get this!
Most lick mats out there are silicon and our dog just chews on them and couldn't get the hang of it. This one is plastic so he quickly learned it's more efficient to lick the food out. We feed our dog half wet food and can easily fit an entire can into the bowl before freezing it with plenty of room to spare.If your dog is still trying to chew on the edge of the bowl, try only putting food/treats in the middle sections so there's none around the edge to entice chewing on the bowl as much.
I put chicken and treats in cover with water then freeze it. My dog loves it.
The holes were much bigger than I expected, allowing for us to fit much more food/treats than anticipated. The size of the cups allows for easy cleaning, which can often be difficult for items like these. My pups get excited every time I pull it out, and I don't dread cleaning it!
My dog is a food vaccuum. Often times coming up to me on the couch or when I'm at my desk and rips a burp in my face as a thank you. Now he's learned to slow down and his metabolism will thank me for doing this. Great mental stimulation as well. He tuckers himself out trying to reach it. Bonus points for being dishwasher safe. Be careful with pups with delicate teeth, this is a hard plastic and not a soft silicone like other slow feeders. Make sure that those with softer teeth aren't chewing this up.
