Questions & Answers
The bowl is accompanied by a stand. I believe I have the large bowl, which ranges in size from large to xl. I have three of these bowl stands, and they're fantastic! I'd never consider using another stand, and the price is unbelievable! I hope this information is useful.
A standard stainless water bowl will fit in the single 7" size (the one I have has an 8 1/2" diameter including the lip on top and a 6 3/4" diameter at the bottom).
I've never had a small dog, but for my large dog, I ordered the medium so he could drink water while lying on his cot. You're familiar with elevated beds, no matter how high they are. As long as you're not taller than a pug, medium should suffice. If your dog, like mine, spends a lot of time lying down, the small size might be preferable.
It's not glow-in-the-dark, for example. However, this is serious. For the past three years, I've had this. Everything is fine after four months.

My cat's veterinarian advised me to switch from a plastic to a metal water bowl because he was developing kitty acne on his chin as a result of an allergic reaction to the plastic. br>I looked online and all the metal cat bowls are ridiculously expensive, so I got him this medium-sized dog bowl, not sure if he'd like it, but he absolutely loves it. Loves it. br>What's more, the best part is - His chin acne has already started to fade.
I'm so happy I purchased this bowl! The one in this photo is with a medium-sized bowl and my 19-pound Bichon/Poodle dog. Because she suffers from Intervertebral Disc Disease, bending over with a bowl on the floor strains her back and causes her more pain, so this bowl is the ideal height for her water. We have three dogs, so I got the medium size bowl, which is actually quite large, but that wasn't a problem because two of the dogs are heavy water drinkers, so I have to refill it at least once a day. Even with this one, I'm going to do it twice a day. I did get the small bowl for her food, which is the perfect size and only 2 inches shorter than the large bowl, so it still works well. Overall, I strongly recommend these raised-stand bowls. It relieves a lot of strain on their backs because they don't have to bend so far over for food and water all of the time.
I've always fed my dogs from flat plates in order to keep their "courses" separate - Food in cans, dry food, and a bonus My dog is getting old and senile, and he's having a hard time eating from his plate. When he stands to eat (even on carpeting), he can no longer support himself on his legs, and his legs splay out - Imagine a giraffe drinking from a pond, only worse because his legs splay all the way to the ground, causing him to eat while lying almost flat on the ground. He also has a habit of stepping into his plate, spilling food all over his feet and the carpet due to his senility. He can now eat without difficulty thanks to the elevated bowl. I want to do cartwheels because it makes me so happy. In addition, the holder holds a standard-size stainless steel bowl, which I can switch out for food at mealtimes and water the rest of the day. br>br>For the record, my dog is 16" at the shoulder (withers), and I ordered the 7" single size holder, which fits him perfectly.
I wanted one of the other, more expensive, clean-line feeders, but we couldn't justify it because I already have a lovely handcrafted raised two-bowl wood feeder. Unfortunately, we had to get metal because we had our first defective lipped dog. Because he has a waterfall mouth, our dog is actually dehydrated. For fear of slipping and falling, we have to mop up about 8' of water dribble after each time they drink. The beautiful wood had to be saved. I'm getting off track, but I really like this wrought iron raised bowl, but the "curled" feet get in the way. We can't put it closer to the wall or out of the way because it curls out, which is inconvenient, and we're constantly catching it with our shoes or bare feet, which causes spillage, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. As a result, only three stars are available. In other words, we're still mopping, but not as frequently or as widely; however, if you can put it somewhere where it won't be disturbed by foot traffic, it might work better for you. We also have to admit that our dogs occasionally kick the "curled feet," but it's possible that we have a few dogs because the raised wood stand has never been spilled. br>It's sturdy enough and appears to be well made; we've had it for over a year. Because of the design, I am unable to award another star. Good luck to the rest of you.
This is for my golden retriever, and I purchased it. It's quite charming. I wished I could have kept it, but that was not to be. First - It made him nervous. What a blunder, to say the least. He eventually gave in and ate, but only half of his meal. That wasn't the fault of the dish, and I'm sure he'd be fine after a couple of meals. br>br>The main problem was that I have hard wood floors, which slid around a lot. Not good. I had planned to use small rubber 'feet' to keep it in place, but the wrought iron is so thin that they won't stick to anything. If you have carpet and a less rambunctious dog, this is a good option. This is the bowl that you will use.
I am the proud owner of a Shih Tzu. Tzu puppy who is completely enamored with water and spends all of his time playing in his water bowl. I thought I'd finally cracked the code when I saw this bowl. I measured my dog and chose a bowl height that I thought would be ideal, but I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. It was colossal to say the least! Oh, and my dog hasn't given up on playing in it. So, instead of purchasing a bowl to solve the problem, I simply purchased an elevated swimming pool for him. Epic fail as a dog mom! br>br>However, the bowl is of excellent quality, and I would strongly recommend it to anyone. especially if your dog needs to swim in an indoor pool!.
This is an excellent bowl. The family room looks great with it. This one is preferred by the dogs over the one in the laundry room for drinking. I've washed it several times and the stainless appears to be of good quality and shines brightly. We were always stepping on their water dish and spilling it in the RV, so I bought it for them. Because of the limited space in the RV, finding an out-of-the-way location for their water dish was difficult. Because it was higher than the old bowl, I thought this would be a good solution. So, to get the dogs used to it, I temporarily set it up in the family room, but when we go on our next trip, I'll move it out to the RV.
She's the ideal height. At water level, I believe it is about 6 inches off the ground. She's on water pills to dehydrate her and keep her lungs clear (she has heart failure), so she spends a lot of time at the water dish, and I'm glad I finally got her this raised dish because she seems to enjoy it already. The bowl is a good size for a dog who drinks as much as she does, and she's drinking even more water than usual, indicating that she enjoys it. She also doesn't have to bend her neck at all. Because she isn't as rough on the dishes as a younger, larger dog might be, the fact that it isn't super heavy duty is fine for us, but it may not be for others. Keep in mind that this dish would not be suitable for a dog who enjoys playing with his water dish.
