Elevated dog bowl stands are excellent for your dog. They allow them to eat/drink more comfortably, puts less strain in their neck, and helps with swallowing. This feeder stand raises their bowls to a height of 8" (but can be higher or lower) and is designed to look awesome in your home. We build this one from solid reclaimed 2x2s that we scorch then stain to match any color decor you may like. They are then mounted on attractive steel hair pin legs. Bowls are available as an add on. They are stainless steel and hold 3 cups of water/dog food.
