My wife sees this quite often at the vet hospital she works at. Vets tend to recommend ceramic or metal food and water dishes.
No, her bowls are ceramic. I did read about plastic bowls holding bacteria. I was going to use stainless steel ones, but the breeder said they can get scared of their reflection.
