Will it actually slow my dog down?

For most gulping dogs, yes. The maze forces them to work around obstacles, though very determined eaters may still finish quickly.

Is it big enough for a large dog?

The 3.2-cup capacity is larger than many slow feeders and holds a full meal for medium and large dogs.

Can it go in the dishwasher?

Yes, it is dishwasher safe. Rinse food out of the maze grooves first so residue does not bake on.

Can I put it in the microwave?

No. The feeder is not microwave safe.

Does it work for cats?

Yes, it is made for dogs and cats. Cats with flat faces may find the deeper obstacles awkward.

Does it slide around while my pet eats?

The non-slip base helps hold it in place on hard floors, though a very pushy dog may still shift it.

Our take on the Vibrant Life 3.2-Cup Slow Feeder Bowl for Dogs and Cats

The Vibrant Life Slow Feeder Bowl is a 3.2-cup maze bowl for dogs and cats that makes pets work around ridges and obstacles while eating, which slows fast eaters and can help with gulping, bloat risk and mealtime boredom. A non-slip base keeps it from sliding on hard floors, and it is dishwasher safe. The 3.2-cup capacity is larger than many slow feeders, so it suits bigger portions and multi-pet households. It is not microwave safe. Owners rate it well overall; the usual complaints about maze bowls apply, such as crevices that need rinsing and a shape that some flat-faced pets find awkward.
