Rock ‘N Bowl slows down your dogs eating and makes mealtime fun

NEWS – If your dog has a tendency like mine does to inhale their food at feeding time, slowing them down can be a challenge. The Rock ’N Bowl Dog Feeder was designed to not only slow them down but to make mealtime a playful, engaging challenge.

Rock ’N Bowl is part food bowl, part puzzle. The top of the feeder has holes that allow some of the food to fall through into a compartment underneath. In order for your dog to get to the remaining food, they must nudge and rock the bowl to get it to fall out of the holes in the bottom. This not only helps slow and extend eating time but, it also helps to stimulate your pup’s mind.

It takes an everyday activity like food time and makes it more fun and challenging.

The bowl comes apart for easy cleaning and is even top rack dishwasher safe.

The Rock ’N Bowl Dog Feeder comes in two colors blue and orange. It sells for $19.95 and is available from The Grommet.

PupAlert helps your very good boy tell you when he has to go potty

NEWS – I miss having a dog, but I don’t miss the task of potty training and housebreaking them. There are as many ways to housebreak a dog as there are dog breeds, but did you know that there’s an app for that? Well, to be honest, it’s an app that works with a sensor and a tag that goes on your dog’s collar.

A sensor installs near your front door and the tag goes on the dog’s collar. When your dog goes to the door, your phone will receive a notification so you can quickly go to the door to let him out. It helps prevent you from missing that short window when your pup is at the door and ready to go before he wanders somewhere else in the house to do his business. PupAlert is priced at $99.99 and is available at pupalert.me
