Veterinarian-recommended for fast eaters and dogs prone to bloat. Note: at 2\" deep, this bowl is best suited for medium and large dogs.

Bloat can be fatal within hours and is a leading cause of death in large and deep-chested breeds. Slow feeder bowls address the root cause by reducing eating speed by up to 10x, limiting air swallowing, improving digestion, reducing gas and post-meal discomfort, and engaging natural foraging behavior that promotes calm, settled behavior after meals.\n\nThe Pine Tree eBowl's ridge pattern is sculpted into repeating pine tree silhouettes that create a network of food-trapping pockets. This design is functionally equivalent to SodaPup's full enrichment lineup — dogs must use their tongue, snout, and problem-solving skills to retrieve each bite, meaningfully extending mealtime. The green colorway deepens the evergreen aesthetic and keeps the bowl visually fresh year-round, not just during the Christmas season. The 2\" depth makes it particularly well-matched to medium and large dogs who can comfortably reach the bottom of the bowl.","brand":"SodaPup Dog Toys","offers":[{"title":"Trees ebowl - Green","offer_id":47397903368361,"sku":"SPTPP-EBTREES-300","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/8207\/8633\/files\/8db3c7ef98a71c6d6ec277cc14fe6ab23dc9b9072af12b49fce1ad7710cfc39a.png?v=1788022535","url":"https:\/\/tcboarding.myshopify.com\/products\/pine-tree-christmas-ebowl-deep-slow-feeder-dog-bowl-for-enrichment-usa-made","provider":"Town and Country Grooming and Boarding","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
