How elevated dog feeders help
alleviate common pet health problems
To understand
why elevated dog feeders are a good idea for pet health reasons, try
this simple visual exercise. Imagine if humans ate on their hands and
knees. Would it be easier for you to eat if the dish or bowl was at the
level of your face without having to lean down to the floor to reach
it? The answer is 'yes,' of course. The same principle is what led to
elevated dog feeders. Below are some of the pet health problems that a
raised feeder helps.
Elevated dog feeders reduce the
effects of the following pet health problems
Canine Bloat
Elevated dog
feeders have been proven to prevent a serious, sometimes
life-threatening condition known as bloat (gastric dilation). This pet
health problem occurs after animals gulp down food, liquids, and/or air
very quickly in large quantities.
Using elevated
dog feeders makes eating more comfortable for puppies and dogs, so they
don't tend to gulp so much, and the intake of air is greatly reduced.
Bloat causes the stomach to expand and rotate, and this pet health
affliction is often fatal if not treated quickly.
Mega Esophagus
Elevated dog
feeders also help mitigate the effects of a serious puppy condition
called mega esophagus. This pet health problem causes young puppies to
be unable to pass solid foods into their stomachs.
Using elevated
dog feeders helps with mild cases of this pet health condition by
facilitating gravity's effects. Food is more likely to fall into
stomach if the animal is eating with his head straight or slightly
raised.
