Kong Dog Bowl

Kong's Rubber-Bonded Stainless Steel Dog Bowl is a Favorite for Good Reason     


Kong toys have been somewhat unreliable recently. Newer toys don’t live up to the reputation that Kong has earned over the years. The favorites, however, remain favorites for good reasons – they’re durable and perform as expected. The Kong Dog Bowl has become a favorite and for good reason. 

The interior feeding surface is stainless steel. The exterior lower walls and base have a rubber bonded, non-skid surface. The large size holds up to 113 ounces of water or more food than my dog should or could ever eat at one time. The base is flat and tends to grip the floor.


No Shake, Clatter, or Roll

My dogs generally eat from treat balls at home but when we’re on the road and traveling I want an easy-to-clean, durable, stainless steel bowl but one that doesn’t skid across the floor or clang on surfaces. The heavy weight of this bowl also helps stabilize it when the nose of a Labrador is pushing the bowl around while seeking those last morsels. The heavy weight also discourages dog from picking this up and carrying it around the house; the shape prevents flipping or tipping these bowls. When it’s providing water this bowl’s high sides helps prevent splashing unless fully filled.

Kong Dog Bowls are available in two sizes: 64 and 113 ounces. The non-toxic stainless steel bowl doesn’t rust. I’ve heard this is available in red and black – ours is red and it’s the only color I’ve ever seen. 

The base is designed to grip the floor.  I have other stainless steel bowls that rest in slightly raised feeders and they simply don’t go with us on road trips. They skid, which increases the dog’s anxiety levels at feeding time, and make a lot of noise on hard floors. The Kong Dog Bowl is terrific and perfect for our needs.
