Particularly dedicated to medium-large dogs who eat very quickly and greedily, the raised dog bowl is of great help at mealtime as it improves Fido's posture while he eats. In order to avoid problems due to the speed with which they gulp down food - such as gastric torsion - for dogs of some medium-large breeds it is preferable for the height of the bowl to correspond to the height of the withers. In this way, with the bowl placed on the appropriate supports, the dog does not have to bend too low and is able to keep its head aligned with the spine, and this helps to significantly reduce the amount of air ingested during the meal.
The usefulness of the raised bowl is indisputable even if the dog who has to use it suffers from arthrosis: the higher position compared to the floor does not force him to lean forward, resulting in neck pain. The use of this type of bowl is also recommended for dogs suffering from megaesophagus: in this case the position of the bowl at the withers manages to alleviate the discomfort caused by the problem affecting the dog and reduces the risk of suffocation.

HOW TO CALCULATE HEIGHT:
Measure from the ground to the height of the withers and subtract 15 cm.
