tried this with my mini dachshund and after 15 min. I finally had to help him get to the food. Also tried it on a 6 lb dog and she couldn't get to the food either. Won't use it again because they got too frustrated trying to eat.

Tried this on our gluttonous Dalmatian - he wolfs down his food and gags. It causes him to eat much more slowly. He gets a little frustrated and looks at me to help him - he'll learn as time goes on.

For 10 years I used a Kong to feed my Husky because he ate too fast. The Slo-Bowl Flower has worked wonderful for him. Takes a lot longer for him to eat and keeps him from begging as soon as I sit down. Wish I has seen this 10 years ago.

we adopted a dog that was very thin and she would just gulp her feed and we saw this and decided to try it. It's just what we needed she can at least slow down and enjoy her food

Tried everything to slow down a voracious eater, nothing worked till I found this Kyjen Slo-Bowl feeder. I do not have a dishwasher so the only issue I have with it is washing it, but considering how well it works that is a very small price to pay. PetGuys.com shipped very quickly and me and my dog are delighted!

Excellent dog bowl. My dog went from 30 seconds eating his food to 12 minutes. Love the dish. I would recommend to anyone.

My dogs scarf their dinner down fast. This has helped in making the meal last longer (10-15min) than the 1 min it did take. They seem to enjoy working to get their dinner and has cut down on gas as well. I currently feed 2 cups of larger kibble out of it and it will hold more than that for sure.

I have four dogs, medium sized (40-65 lbs). My biggest dog eats slowly, my three smaller dogs inhale their food; I wanted to allow my biggest to eat without feeling rushed by the others. I bought all three round SloBowl designs (drop, coral, flower) for my three smaller dogs. All of the bowls work well. All three bowls are the same diameter (~11"), all three hold about 1L (~4 cups) of liquid; however, they are not all the same height. I feed about 2 cups of kibble, plus treats and soup, which all fits nicely into the bowls. The "Drop" is the tallest, the "Flower" is the most shallow. Despite the differences, all three designs make feeding take about the same amount of time. The dogs would suck up their meals in less than 2 minutes, now it takes them more than 10 minutes. The "Flower" is the best of the three patterns, in my opinion. When washing, it will give you some mental exercise making sure you wiped every surface.

Having a weimaraner - a breed proned to bloat - it is really important for us to slow down the eating. I bought a different type of bowl last year which slowed down Inga's eating from 8 seconds to 30 second. With Kyjen slo-bowl, her eating time has increased to 4 minutes! It is the best bowl ever! Plus Inga loves to look for all the kebbles :)

A pink flower for your dog to dive into. All of the twists, turns and crevices really slow my girl down!

I have been through so many bowls, this one really works. My dogs are prone to bloat so I am so relieved that they now have to take their time and won't die just form eating dinner! Reduced meal time from 1 or 2 minutes to 7 or 8 for Basset hounds.

This has helped our dogs go from a less than a minute meal to ten minutes or more.

LOVED IT- Cannot say enough about this dish! Needed it for a rescue pup who just inhaled her food. She now takes between 7-8 minutes for her 1/3 cup serving. Beats the heck out of the 30 seconds she was averaging before. Short-snouted dogs may have issues but not with our chihuahua. Best price anywhere too! THANKS!!!

It has been quite entertaining watching my dog eat out of this bowl! She typically eats a cup of food in about three swallows without chewing, so this has been perfect for slowing her down. She can't stand in one spot while eating, she has to walk in circles! This was a great buy.

Slowed down my German Shepherd who usually inhaled her food in less than a minute. Took her about 10 minutes the first few times and then figured it out. Still takes her 5-6 minutes compared to the <60 seconds previously. Has not been able to flip it over either. It's also entertaining watching her try to eat out of the individual nooks and crannies. I mix a little wet food in with the kibble - usually just put in the larger nooks around the edge. Alternate with the Coral spiral bowl just to mix things up between the two dogs. Both work the same.

I love this bowl. It has slowed my dog's eating tremendously. I plan to buy one for a friend's dog who is a fast eater. My dog works and works to get every last morsel in his bowl.

This works. After several attempts with other products, this one tripled Rosie's time to eat. Problem solved.
