I really like ceramic bowls because they are easier to clean than the metal variety. There is nothing wrong with his old bowl so we'll use it on the back porch for outside doggie refreshment on 90 degree days.
When I struck out at the big box pet stores, I decided to head to my old favorites - HomeGoods and Marshalls to find a solution. I stumbled on these white souffle dishes
The larger one is for water and holds quite a bit more than his original green bowl. The smaller one works well for his vittles. Because they are dishwasher safe, they'll both get more frequent thorough cleanings. Also the flat, wide bottom makes it much harder (but not impossible) for my trouble-making 1 year old to tip over! Added bonus - both fit on the white plastic tray we've been using for the water bowl for years which helps keep the floors dry.
I'm so glad Angus was able to get in on the remodeling, redecorating action! I'd love to hear about any unusual solutions that you've come up with or seen for pet food and water bowls
