Is Elevated Dog Bowl Good For Your Dog?
As the name suggests, elevated dog bowl is one of dog feeders that usually consists of a stand used to raise your dog's food or water bowl to a certain height off the ground. One of the most controversial topics among veterinary scientists in recent years is - elevated dog feeder is good for your dog's health or not. Some reports suggest that the use of elevated bowls may lead to bloat - “Gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV) is a serious condition and is fatal if left untreated. Commonly referred to as "bloat," GDV occurs when a dog's stomach fills with gas, food, or fluid and subsequently twists. GDV develops without warning and can progress quickly.” - Steve from Veterinary Medical Center. however, other researchers have exposed that bloat usually occurs in older and small to medium-sized dogs. now, there is no direct connection between bloat and the elevated dog bowl. much deep research is needed. but scientists approve that elevated dog bowl keeps dogs in a comfortable feeding position and reduce neck and joint strain, making them a good choice for older dogs or dogs with muscle and joint problems.
