Ergonomic Pet Bowls
For pet owners who are concerned that eating out of a ground-level bowl may be putting a crimp in your pup's lifestyle (or neck), take a look at the ergonomic Ultra Bowl Boosters from WetNoZ. Designed to hold their sleek, dual-purpose bowls, which act both as dishes and as scoops for dry food, the boosters come in two sizes (Big Pooch and Lil Pup) and raise bowls from 6-12 inches off the ground.
I have to say that I have never noticed a cat or dog - these bowls are uni-species - appearing to experience discomfort while eating, so buying these will not increase your pet's happiness as much as simply giving them more food would. If you have a modern home, the stainless steel and aluminum boosters will look fantastic, though, and definitely more stylish than a round, plastic bowl on the floor. Prices are $55 for large, $45 for small. Bowls sold separately.

The larger breed dogs can get a twin=st oin their intestine or stomach from eating at floor level. Some of those dogs are German Shepards and Labradors. There are less expensive ways to elevate the dogs dish for those that are smart enough to not pay too much for an elevated dish.
