What does your dog's food bowl look like at mealtime and what's in it?

LOL at the tennis balls? How do you keep them clean? Or did you bust out a brand new pack just for us? Uni inhales her food now too. I'll try to get a pic later. her's is Honest kitchen with chicken bits.

Those are new balls. I usually use rubber balls that I can wash in the sink. LadyJane suggested this bowl to me, which I'm buying tomorrow. [Welcome to brake-fast.net!

Kaji's is boring too.

Only chicken Orijen, and less than 1/4 cup at a time. Is there anything I can add that can help Kaji feel full and is low to no calories? He loves lettuce whites so nothing is off limits.

Levi gets 1/8 cup of Orijen at each serving, usually with something mixed in. Have you tried green beans? We use frozen green beans (I thaw them a little beforehand, or you could microwave them, my crazy dog will eat them straight from the freezer), and they are low-calorie and pretty fiber-y and filling. Wish I had taken a picture earlier! He's already eaten and I just saw this thread. Will take one tomorrow morning.

Thanks! I will be trying green beans.

Izzy got the raw nuggets this morning, so tonight she got 1/4 Orijen, little diced chicken that we had for dinner and about 1 tablespoon for poma/acai yogurt ( her fav)

Where is everyone's photo?

Hmmmm I feed only kibble in the bowls (we just switched from Innova to Taste of the Wild)...Elvie also eats a raw diet, but I'm lazy so I give him Stella and Chewy's (mostly Duck Duck Dinner) patties most of the time-they are not as visually pleasing as your pics! When I feed special food once a week I feed it from my hand...special food meaning vegi's and goodness they'd ignore in their bowl but when it comes from my hand it is suddenly yummy!

I don't have a camera, and the wire that connects my phone to my laptop has been misplaced (by me). Imagine Britster's pic without all the extra goodies and you have Kaji's dinner.

I gave my daughter my camera and am waiting for a camcorder via UPS, a little treat to me from me. Tess's food bowwl b4 eaten has a 1/4 cup of wellness on 1 half and a portion of smart pak chicken stew in pumkin with other veggies,100%organic and comes in a pouch turns out to be a quarter cup.

Our bowls look a bit more scant than yours Karen. Toby gets a whole 22 pieces of kibble and Speedy gets 44! If you find a good way to keep Max from inhaling his food, please share as Toby inhales his as well. He's done with his dinner in a matter of about 30 seconds!

Do you know how to shrink them in the photo program you have? You can probably open it, right click and find a size option. I'm mobile right now so I can't help much. But feel free to email them to me and I can post them in the morning.

I'm not sure one of those bowls would do any good for 22 pieces of kibble would it?
