| Raised food bowl height?? I have been looking at several raised food/water bowl combos. The ones that are raised above the floor. I have noticed that they come in different heights like 4inches, 6inches, etc... for small dogs. Does anyone own one of these? Did you like them? Which height is best? I like the wooden ones I've seen with the removable stainless steel bowls, but I wonder if chewing is an issue with the wooden ones and if you need to worry about the finish being toxic?

| I have wrought iron one's for my two. I chose the single bowl style because somebody around here (Chan) is a backwasher...lol! Phoebi has a fit if there's kibble crumbs in her water so I bought two and keep them a few feet apart. This way Chan's crumbs fall off before he takes a drink. I have the smallest size...it's 5" off the ground. Oh...forgot to say...I did have a wooden one when it was just Phoebi. Over that year it did get a little "icky" from her water dribbles.

| Buddy's is a double dish about 4" off the floor. It's plastic however I put ceramic bowls inside for easy cleaning. The plastic one was the only one that matched my kitchen hence the ceramic insert bowls. |

| I had to buy them for my 2 pound Chihuahua. She's blind, old and now so thin that she's top heavy and kept falling face first in her bowl. It's wrought Iron with two stainless steel bowls, but I use tiny glass desert bowls and just put the food and water in those and place inside the metal bowls. My Yorkies still eat from their bowls on the floor. |

| 4" Raised Wooden Personalized. I purchased this for Izzie and it's the perfect height for her....Got it off ebay, the seller's name is Alistarr41 and he does excellent work. I haven't had any problem with Izzie wanting to chew on the wood (thank goodness) as she is going through major teething right now He makes all different sizes and fast shipping...customizing with their name is free Hope this helps !!!!
