LickiBowl – Happy Camper

Top tips!

• The suction cup base allows for easy attachment to smooth surfaces such as laminate and tile to prevent slipping/moving. This also means you can attach the bowl to the shower floor- smear some treats over the bowl to create a fun distraction during bath time!
• The ridges help slow the feeding process, providing further enrichment and increasing satisfaction with the dog. Kibble is relatively easy to pick out from the bowl, but for dogs who like more of a challenge we recommend runnier treats such as wet food or plain yogurt! This will encourage licking which is shown to release endorphins in the dog’s brain- this is why so many behaviourists recommend licking-based enrichment!
• Ideal for small-large sized dogs- holds up to 2 cups of kibble at a time!
• Slowing down the intake of food is also shown to greatly reduce the risk of fatal GDV (more commonly known as ‘bloat’). We also recommend to avoid intense play or exercising dogs an hour before and after feeding to further prevent this condition.

Used daily by our team, the lickibowls are an essential for happy dogs who need that extra enrichment and to slow down gulping!

Dogs would naturally spend most of their time awake occupied around food- whether its hunting their prey or chewing the bones, mealtime was meant to be a longer process than simply inhaling the contents of a bowl. You can help rebuild the challenge of a good meal and provide the crucial mental stimulation by making mealtimes last that bit longer. An enriched dog is a happy dog, and providing a stimulating mealtime is a great way to start!
