Should We Go? Small Slow Feeder Dog Bowl - 6" Silicone Lick Mat for Puppies & Dogs, Tan - Reduces Gulping, Dishwasher Safe

The Should We Go? Slow Feeder Dog Bowl is a small silicone bowl designed to slow down fast eaters, helping reduce gulping and promote healthier digestion. Measuring 6 inches in diameter and 1.25 inches tall, this tan bowl holds up to 1 cup of food and is ideal for puppies, toy breeds, and even cats. Its patent-pending design features ridges and nooks that encourage your pet to work for their food, extending mealtime by up to 10 times.

How the slow feeder works

The interior of this bowl is lined with raised ridges and small nooks that create obstacles for food. When your dog eats, they must navigate around these barriers, which naturally slows down their pace. This helps prevent gulping and the associated risks of bloat, choking, and indigestion. The bowl is suitable for dry, wet, fresh, or raw food, making it versatile for any meal.

Small size for little companions

With a 6-inch diameter and a capacity of 1 cup, this slow feeder is specifically sized for small dogs and puppies. It also works well as a slow feeder for cats. The compact footprint fits easily in a crate or travel carrier, and the low profile (1.25 inches tall) makes it easy for small pets to reach their food.

Dual-purpose: slow feeder and enrichment tool

Beyond slowing down eating, this bowl doubles as a lick mat. Spread soft treats like peanut butter, yogurt, or canned food over the ridges to create a mentally stimulating activity. This can help distract your dog during grooming, nail trimming, or stressful events like thunderstorms. The silicone material is soft enough for licking yet durable enough to withstand daily use.

Material and care

Made from resilient silicone, this feeder is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. It is also microwave safe for warming food and freezer safe for making frozen treats. The built-in suction cup on the bottom grips smooth surfaces, preventing the bowl from sliding while your pet eats. This non-slip feature is especially helpful for enthusiastic eaters.
