| We use a shallow cat bowl that is 5" in diameter for my big boys. Sometimes we use a plate. For water, we have very small glass bowls. Do you have a link to the bowls you are looking at?

| IME none of my dogs like stainless. Dunno but I just use Pyrex glass. No lead hard to break and easy to clean. I like stainless because its easy to sanitize. But I change bowls every feeding and wash them everytime. but those finished ones maybe different. I can imagine the dog just not liking the stainless or metal taste?? Dunno.

| I use stainless shallow cat bowls as well. I have a bunch of different ones, but I always go back to the shallow cat dishes. I also use little bread plates when those are all in the dishwasher.

| I tried alot of different types, but ended up with a bunch of ceramic people bowls for ZoE. You'll need a bunch or you'll be washing bowls at every feeding and water refill.

| I have tons of bowls but use the ceramic smallest ones from Walmart in the dog section the most. I have a little bigger one for water. Then I have a water fountain in the kitchen.

| I use the smallest ceramic dog bowls you can get from Petsmart. Why ceramic? They are very heavy and don't tip over. They also clean easily. |

| I have just one set of ceramic bowls, but I do wash them at every feeding and water refill--it's become automatic for me. |
