A question about the pug episode

Post by Marie in Maine »

The blue bowls Victoria used to slow down the pugs gulping their food, where can I get one? I have found some similar products but none the same as the ones shown.

I was so glad to see her address poop eating. I have a pug I use some management with and it was nice for my family to see it isn't a quickly solved issue. (even tho I am a dog trainer heaven forbid they admit I am right sometimes VBG)

Our pug is also a serious gulper and I have been using the trick of adding water to the food to slow her down. I would like to try the food bowl to see if that would work for her.

Thanks for any help!
Tail wags,

It's called a Brake Fast Bowl... you can do a search and find a bunch of websites that sell them.

If you only have one dog, and want him to slow down and take his time eating you can also try puzzle cubes, kongs, jug a tugs, or similar toys. :wink:

Not sure

The bowl on the show looks different than the break fast to me. Are you POSITIVE it is that brand? The pieces sticking up looked flat to me and not round.

I have a break fast that I have tried and the pieces sticking up are to high for pug faces.

I do know about using toys like kongs for meals but thanks.

Funny, I have a pug who won't eat. :/ He eats eventually, but long after I put out his food. And if I put his food out for only fifteen minutes as advised, then put it back at his other mealtime at dinner, he just won't eat
