Puzzle/Maze Feeding bowls

Does anyone else use the Maze type feeding bowls? I have been using one for several months now, as does my dil with their dog. My dog used to gobble down her food in seconds, but since using this bowl it takes her about five minutes to eat her dinner, having to eat each pellet individually. Far better for their digestion I believe when they eat more slowly.

An old trick is to put a large stone in the feeding bowl if a dog eats too quickly.

Chloe does have a puzzle ball and a kong for mental stimulation rather than to slow down eating.

I'm not blessed with quick eaters it can take my two ten minutes or more to eat their meals. But I'd be tempted if I had some of my past dogs.

I use a classic Kong and a Kong critter frog for interest for them not to slow them down.

Murphy has a giggle ball that dispenses dry as he rolls it, it encourages him to hunt for his food.

I used to have one for Benny because he was food motivated and blind in old age so the giggle meant he could find it easily and the treats kept him interested..

My ctas have these:-



They love to play with them and extract their treats. The mouse holds about 15 dreamies and the the slots are adjustable so they don't all fall out at once!
