Healthy Dog Bowl for your Pooches

LiRa — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 13:00:42 +0000

You’ve heard about how nutritionists and dietitians advise us to chew our food slowly to help with our diet, right? Apparently, the same concept is also applicable to dogs. Chewing slowly makes for healthier and happier pets, according to this medical finding. It says it also helps eliminate “gastric torsion” or bloating. We humans know what that feels like and dogs are supposed to feel the same, too.

So, this is the idea behind this dog bowl (pictured) which you notice comes with partitions to set the food in portions. Here’s a video comparison between two instances where the doggie eats from a traditional dog bowl and this fancier one called Dog Pause:

What do you think? Is it an amazing product or a pretty useless product for $17.95?

I’m honestly quite amused by the idea we can teach dogs some table manners! I dare say, this bowl should be a lot helpful to humans, too!
