The Great Outdoors eBowl is a deep slow feeder bowl with an outdoor-inspired labyrinth pattern – mountain peaks and sun motifs – that makes dogs work for their food instead of gobbling it down. The bowl is particularly well-suited for active dogs, hiking dogs, and breeds at risk of fast eating and bloat.
Dogs that eat too quickly swallow a lot of air with their food, which can contribute to gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV/bloat) – a potentially life-threatening condition where the stomach fills with gas and twists. This is especially relevant for large, deep-chested breeds, but can occur in any dog that gulps down their food. Slow feeder bowls can reduce eating speed by up to 10 times, which reduces air intake, improves digestion, and turns every meal into mental exercise.
The 5 cm deep ridges keep the food firmly in place while the dog works through each section, thus extending the meal. Available in outdoor colors orange and green.
