Well my baby will drink water out of a bowl but wont eat out of a bowl I have tried every bowl there is she prefers to eat off of a plate! Really weird!

I have stainless steal bowls for Thor witht the non skid bottom but when he get really upset (like he doesn't want to be left in his cage) he turns them both over, which means food and water everywhere!!! Our other dog (lab) has ceramic (made out of clay, I don't know if I used the right word) bowls which are really heavy, and I really like those. They tend to be more expensive, but they are good. Thor drinks his water out of them and he can also play in them and not knock it ove! JMO

I didn't know this either. Good thing I'm always on YT! If time allows today I will be out to buy Maggie some new dishes. I'm definitely going to find some cute ones too!

My girls have a crystal bowl for water and a shallow crystal dish for food. It's pretty and easy to keep clean...

Snoodles drinks out of a ceramic bowl. She was scared to death of the stainless steel ones. What? Saw her reflection, or what? I bought two really nice ones at the dollar store. Real heavy, and pretty big. I wash them every morning as I do my bird dishes. As for eating, I found a small round tube at the dollar store, and now she eats her dinner out of that. She loves to paw at it and get the pieces of food out of it. I think it satisfies their hunting or gathering for food instinct. In the morning, she eats out of a small plate.

Ok, Walmart just made a sale based on this thread! I use plastic auto feeders for Wickett but bentley has one of this small 2 bowl plastic cheapies right now while he's a pup. We don't have a pet store worth a crud here for stuff like that so Walmart is about it...but I just heard we're getting a petsmart...YIPPEE I am ecstatic, my husband is worried about having to get another job to support my spending once it opens (haha) No really, I replace the plastic every so often but I had no idea how bad they were...So I will probably get ceramic ones now.

MaxiMillion · 11-03-2005, 11:03 AM

My vet recommended the stainless steel bowls. They do seem a lot cleaner than the others. I just wish they where cuter. I have been trying to come up with some ideas to decorate them.

yorkieusa · 11-03-2005, 11:15 AM

Here it is. I just thought this was fairly common knowledge, but I guess not. Hope this helps to keep some of those cute little noses their natural color.

Plastic dish dermatitis can occur if the dog eats or drinks out of plastic or rubber bowls. It is triggered by a reaction to an antioxidant found in the dishes.
