Product Description

Does your dog eat too fast? It's very common and can contribute to problems such as gastric dilatation-volvulus....also known as "bloat," or "twisted stomach". Slower eating reduces the risk of such health issues and also makes your animal feel more full. The brake-fast bowl is a simple and effective solution for this problem. These heavy duty, durable plastic bowls feature molded "posts" that discourage dogs from "snarfing down" their dinner. The brake-fast bowl works well with both kibble and canned foods. There are three sizes to select from....small for dogs up to 30 pounds, medium for dogs from 30-120 pounds, and large for dogs 110 pounds and up. Bowls are dishwasher safe.

Brake-Fast Bowl great for fast eating dogs - Mrs. Sharon L. Colligan, May 08, 2008

This has worked great. We have a young pit bull and it has slowed him down on his eating.

It worked for my dog - Karen Marsh, Apr 14, 2008

My lab is a little over a year old, and from the day we brought him home, he would eat so fast that he'd throw up not long after eating. He's used this bowl for about 10 months now, and I can honestly say that he doesn't throw up after eating anymore. To me it was worth every penny. We're getting another lab soon, and I am ordering another Brake-fast bowl today, so we'll be prepared this time.

Brake Fast Dog Food Bowl Works! - Dogmom, Feb 08, 2008

I recently purchased four Brake Fast Bowls, three for my dogs (two Rottweiler /Lab crosses and a Great Dane) and one for my foster dog, a Doberman. One of my Rotties tried to tip the dish, but the sloped sides prevented that. He tried to pick it up and dump it, but failed there as well. The other three tried eating as fast as before, but really did have to slow down. My other Rottie mix is now approaching his dish slower (before he would dive into it and send the kibble flying). My only complaint is that the dishes are plastic and there are teeth marks on the posts. I would definately purchase these again in heavy duty stainless steel. I hope the manufacturer reads this!

SORTA - M. Porter, Feb 08, 2008

Our dog still gulps her food down without chewing. But did it slow her down? Yes. Did it change her eating style? No. So I guess the dish sorta works. It is made of pretty light plastic so our dog moves it all over the place trying to eat out of it. Maybe that's half the point. If your dog's a chewer, which our's is, don't leave it out.
Make it out of a little heavier plastic so it feels more solid.
Don't expect your dog to change it's eating style. They will still TRY to eat fast.

Brake-Fast Bowl is a Godsend - G D, Jan 18, 2008

This bowl is amazing!! We have tried all the tricks to get our dog to slow down her eating...large rocks in the bowl, feeding a tiny bit at a time - many times a day, even hand feeding (and she is a large dog). We are very concerned about bloat and were at our wits end when we discovered Brake-Fast. She eats much more slowly (we even hear her chewing!!) and isn't hungry during the day. She used to beg all day long and now she is happy with her morning and night feedings.
Remember, if you have a dog with a wide muzzle, (boxer, bulldog, etc) this will not work because they have to fit their mouths between the posts...but for most dogs it fantastic!!
It washes up well in the dishwasher and seems pretty sturdy.
