Knowledge Tips

Measure the Bowl First

Confirm that the bowl's internal diameter is larger than 9.8 inches before placing the insert inside.

Check That It Sits Flat

The insert should rest evenly inside the bowl without folding, lifting, or blocking the bowl edge.

Spread Food Across the Waves

Distribute the meal through several channels instead of placing all food in one section.

Supervise the First Meals

Observe how the dog interacts with the insert and confirm that the bowl remains stable during feeding.

Remove Before Cleaning

Take the insert out of the bowl so food residue can be cleaned from both the wave channels and the underside.

Use the Dishwasher Top Rack

Place the insert on the top rack and allow it to dry fully before returning it to the bowl.
