Tips & Warnings:

  • A little water in with the food gets your dog to slow down even more.
  • This is a great bowl for people who have bad backs and can't bend over.

Step1
Purchase a LifeBowl. A LifeBowl is a bowl designed to slow down the speed at which your dog eats. The handle in the center helps to do this. (See link in Resources below)
Step2
Pour the food into your dog's LifeBowl and place it on the floor.
Step3
The handle allows you to put the bowl down and pick it up much easier than a regular bowl.
Step4
LifeBowl comes in two different sizes. The large LifeBowl is designed for dogs with shorter, more pushed in faces like a pug or bulldog. The smaller LifeBowl is for dogs with a more slender nose like a sheltie or collie.
