The elevated position of the feeding station allows for a comfortable eating posture for your pet, making it ideal for dogs with arthritis or muscle and joint issues. Additionally, the feeding station is very stable and offers a secure grip thanks to small silicone dots on the bottom. It is suitable for water as well as wet or dry food. Please avoid direct sunlight or heat (near heaters) to prevent discoloration, deformation, or cracks in the wood. The body should also not be placed on a damp or wet surface. Due to the untreated wood, there may be discoloration on floor coverings in warm or humid conditions. Always ensure a dry surface. For cleaning the wooden frames, it is recommended to use a damp, not overly wet cloth. To protect the wood from swelling, please wipe the body dry. The ceramic bowls can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher.
