Description
The Super Design Raised Tall Bowl is designed to help reduce neck pressure and/or joint pain whilst eating or drinking and also encourages a healthy digestive system by elevating your pets food or water.
The base, fitted with an integral anti skid rubber to the bottom preventing movement on the floor, is made from Melamine and houses the stainless steel bowl. It has high arc rim to the back preventing the content being pushed out over the top or spilled over and has ‘easy carry’ arched handles to either side. The stainless steel bowl has a rubber seal on the underside of the outer rim to keep the bowl in place once seated in the base. Practical and stylish, both the Melamine base and the stainless steel bowl are dishwasher safe. Available in various colours & 2 sizes – Medium and Large.
The colour choice is fabulous – they are bold and bright colours and more stylish than the double diner raised feeders.

Greyhounds and lurchers need to eat from a raised food bowl to avoid medical problems such a bloat.
What is bloat?
This condition is fatal if not treated quickly enough. One way to avoid bloat is to allow you greyhound or lurcher to eat from a raised feeder and to feed 2-3 times a day.
It is thought that exercise may also contribute to bloat. Try to exercise you dog in between meals and not close to meal times. Gentle lead walking is OK but no vigorous exercise should be allowed a couple of hours before or after meals.
Bloating can occur without notice and might even be mistaken for indigestion. It can sometimes have the appearance of a bloated belly, which is where the name comes from, and you may even see the stomach twisting and turning. Once the stomach starts to twist and turn it can torsion, which can be fatal. Bloat cuts off the circulation in the stomach so blood gets pushed into the main organs while the stomach dies.
