Your small dog will have fun with this Green Mini Slow Dog Feeder and reduce the risk of `bloat' at the time. It is a really simple solution to encourage a slower pace and reduce the excessive air intake that can lead to bloating or vomiting. Simply scatter the food across the feeder and watch your dog work to get at it. Made from hard plastic without phthalates, this feeder has been designed to resemble a tuft of grass and can be used outdoors. It is a fun and mentally challenging way to feed your dog which results in a happier, healthier pet. It turns food time into foraging fun rather than a race to devour everything in seconds.
