Size of bowls?? I'm sorry if this was discussed before but i'm getting things off my checklist for Isabella and not sure rather to get an xs bowl or just go ahead and get the small i know she is going to be tiny but it's been awhile since i've seen a yorkie in person and just dont want to get something that she will have trouble using at first if that makes sence |
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? |
Good question! I too still need to get bowls for Miley but never knew which ones to go with. I'm sure someone here can help us out :) |
Bowls Martha Stewart has some cute bowls with sealed tops for travel. 4 inches diameter at top. I think they are in Petsmart. |
Thanks guys! this is the bowl I was looking at Platinum Pets Stainless Steel Dog Bowl - Pink |
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. |
We use ceramic bowls for water and food. |
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 have little ceramic cat bowls. I have a few water bowls around because everyone drinks out of them |
I use small pyrex bowls for water and plates for feeding.. since Lani likes her food warmed up |
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 prefer ceramic but here are some I have used and like.  Amazon.com: Loving Pets Dolce Dish Dog Bowl,... I like petragous they are ceramic and only 5.5 inches Amazon.com: Petrageous Designs Sassy Too 5.5"... Dishwasher safe and come in many designs and colors. |

For my young puppies I put their dry food in a small double sided bowl like you can buy at Wal-mart. If you are mixing dry with a little canned food then I recommend a small saucer or plate. For me Corelle plates work good. Over the years I have had some yorkies that take great pleasure in playing with their food bowl so for some of mine I use heavier bowls that are not easy to tip over and they don't have a 'lip' for the pups to get hold of. |
Abby eats from little rice bowls, so pretty! Ziva needs a flat plate and I use corningware "sidekicks" .We have quite a collection from church/yard sales! They have a little stainless durapet bowl for water but prefer the big dogs water dish- better to soak their whole face in! |

...and this is leading me to a topic for another thread... |
I went to petsmart today and got martha stewart bowls with the lids that one member recommended! I love the fact that they have a lid!! The size Medium was on sale for $10 so I got the medium although they might be a little big for Miley now. But it didn't make sense to pay almost $12 for the smalls when the Mediums where on sale! |
Martha Stewart bowls Mea culpa, LOL! I mentioned the bowls as they are so practical and look very cute, especially the colors. I like the lids too. They are so easy to clean and she also has a bowl with bumps in it that slow down greedy eaters! You sure got a good deal on the medium, and that is pretty small. Hope Miley enjoys her bowl! Perhaps the bigger the better for her. LOL! |

Mandie will NOT eat or drink out of a stainless bowl or a bowl that her ears touch. I learned this early on. I started feeding her in a shallow WIDE ceramic bowl. I have a huge water-jug-filling bowl for both my dogs to share. Hard to explain it but trust me...no stainless and no ears touching. I think it freaks them out to see their reflection. And it definitely bothers Mandie to feel her ears touching. Oh! Come to think of it - when I recently changed my big boy's bowls, he wouldn't use the big, deep stainless ones that came with it. I had to start using those same ceramic wide mouth bowls for him. I think his ears touched on the new bowls versus the old, smaller ones. |
