However, at this point I have to say it’s our favorite of the slow feeder dog bowls we’ve reviewed. If we find any other pluses or minuses to this new bowl then we’ll let you know about it with a follow up blog post.
We really liked this new dog bowl and we plan on continuing to use it as Stetson’s regular dog bowl. However, this bowl is made of melamine and silicone which appears to be a very sturdy material and I’m not too sure if I’d have the same problems that I’ve had with regular plastic bowls. Mainly because in the past I’ve had dogs that have had allergic reactions to plastic and the plastic seems to harbor bacteria more easily sometimes causing canine acne. In general I prefer my standard stainless steel bowl. Made of Plastic – It’s a plastic bowl.The good news is his bites are smaller throughout and he doesn’t seem to gulp like he does with his regular bowl. However, the first cup or so he can eat fairly fast. The Martha Stewart Bowl really slows Stetson down for the last 1/2 to 1/4 cup. Still Eats Fast At The Beginning – If you noticed in the video when Stetson finishes his last morsel of food with his regular bowl he only has maybe a 1/4 of his food left in his slow feeder bowl.
This was a result of the no skid bottom along with the pillars blocking the kibble. When using his new slow feeder dog bowl he’s constantly moving around the bowl trying to get at his kibble.

One other big plus is slowing down Stetson’s eating may help prevent canine bloat which is a serious and sometimes fatal intestinal condition. The biggest bonus for us is that during our week long test Stetson never experienced choking or vomiting using his new slow feeder dog bowl. Using his new Martha Stewart Pets Slow Feeder Dog Bowl(affiliate link) Stetson took on average about 2 minutes to finish off his food. We’re going to speed things up a bit here. I timed Stetson using his regular stainless steel bowl several times and on average it takes him about 1 minute to polish off 1 ½ cups of food. We’ve been looking for a good slow feeder dog bowl because Stetson regularly chokes on his food while using his regular bowl and every so often he does throw up 🙁 The pillars prevent Stetson from taking those large gulps.Īnother thing that you probably can’t see in this video is that each pillar or obstacle is a different height and has a kidney shape. However, when using the Martha Stewart Slow Feeder Dog Bowl he tends to take much smaller bites.Īs you can see in the video. And in the upper right corner he’s eating the same amount out of a standard dog food bowl.Īfter reviewing these videos of Stetson eating I noticed that he takes large gulps when using a standard dog bowl. Stetson’s eating 1 ½ cups of kibble out of his new slow feeder dog bowl. Okay…now here’s Stetson putting this new dog bowl to the true test. You can’t tell from video, but this bowl was much sturdier and felt higher quality then some of the other dog bowls we reviewed. The Martha Stewart Bowl had a nice little niche along the bottom which made it easy to pick up off the floor as well as a no skid rubber bottom that you can see if you look closely. Here’s our new slow feeder dog bowl which came in some very nice packaging quite different from bowls we reviewed in the past.
