They love to lap up all the food in a swift, sweeping motion and gobble down or "inhale" their food like a vacuum cleaner. By doing this, they end up swallowing their food without much chewing, thus leading to indigestion. The wishbone design in the centre of the bowl has three peaks and connecting ridges, which serve as an obstruction that prevents your dog from gulping or sweeping up the food. Using the EatBetter Bowl Supervise your dog"s use of the EatBetter bowl until you are confident that your dog is comfortable using it. Clean well after each use After each use, rinse the bowl thoroughly with water and a mild soap solution, if necessary. Occasionally, give it a good scrub with a soft bristle brush, or wash in the top rack of your dishwasher. Make the switch If your dog has problems switching over from his existing bowl, try adding bits of his favorite treats into the food to encourage him to eat from the new bowl. Once your dog is used to eating from his new bowl, you can resume his normal diet and leave the treats out gradually.
