| Feeders What does everyone use for feeding and water purposes-stainless steel,raised bed etc. I saw a triple bowl 5" raised bed feeder. It has 3 1 quart bowls but it is 56.00. The only reason I ask is that sometimes in their excitement my two turn their bowls over. I could use one bowl for water and the other two for food. Thanks for your replys. |

| I use stainless steel or ceramic bowls only. I just place the bowl on the floor.

| I've tried them all and by far my favorite is glass. The plastic (while not a good choice anyway because it can cause contact dermatitis) stained up too easily. The storage feeder plastic dish was okay though. We got a ceramic bowl and it picked up this really weird odor. Couldn't even bleach it is. It was nothing we had put in there, so not sure what was up with it. That got thrown away. Stainless steel was, ahn, okay. I don't like what having water in it tends to do to the inside over time. Just really didn't like it. Finally just started using the little Pyrex glass bowls. Perfect size for Yorkies. Six bucks for a package of four. To stop them from sliding around, I put one in each side of a bone shaped ceramic dish so she just mainly eats out of the glass.

| I use small porcelain appetizer plates I found at target. For drinks I use stainless steel or made-in-the-USA only glass. They sit on top of the bone appetite placemats sold by YHR and don't slide around at all on my wood and tile floors.

| I have 4 dogs and use the LeBistro food and water containers/feeders. They are plastic, but I clean them frequently and have not had any problems. |
