Stainless Steel Dog Bowls: Keeping Your Pet and Family Healthier

Most people don't think of their dog's food and water bowl as a source of bacteria and possibly illness but, it certainly can be. Especially, if you have more than one dog or small children. That is why more and more dog lovers are choosing stainless steel dog bowls over ceramic and plastic dog bowls nowadays.

Why Steel Dog Bowls Are Healthier

Stainless steel dog bowls and dog feeders are healthier than bowls made of other materials simply because they can be more easily sanitized. Plastic bowls tend to hold in bacteria simply due to the material being porous, while ceramic dishes can get cracks, chips and fissures that will hold bacteria. This bacteria can grow and affect the food your dog eats and even your children if they play in the dogs dish. However, stainless steel dog bowls are neither porous nor do they crack or chip making it easier to clean them and even sanitize them on a regular basis. As long as you wash your bowls or dog feeders frequently, your dog bowl will remain bacteria free.

Easy To Clean

Stainless steel bowls and dog feeders are easy to clean as well. When food gets stuck into or on plastic or ceramic bowls you either have to soak to get the hardened particles removed or else scrub them. When you use a tough scrubber for plastic and ceramic you are making even more areas where bacteria can hide and breed. Not only do stainless steel feeders and bowls have a surface that helps keep food from sticking in the first place but, that surface also makes it easier to scrub without creating a home for bacteria. While all three types of dishes can be hand washed or washed in a dishwasher stainless steel simply cleans better with either method.

Durable

Stainless bowls are also the most durable type of bowls. They will not shatter like ceramic, nor can they be chewed on like plastic or crack when they get old and brittle. They may over time bear a ding or two if dropped frequently but, they will not suffer any damage that renders them useless.

You can purchase a variety of stainless steel dog bowls. There are regular dog bowls for food and water as well as feeder dishes that can be attached to dog exercise pens and kennels when traveling or when you dog needs to be confined. The initial cost may be slightly higher than either plastic or ceramic dog dishes but, when you consider that stainless steel dishes will not need to be replaced as often as either plastic or ceramic dishes you will find that they are a cost effective product.

While choosing the type of dog dish is an individual choice doesn't it make sense to choose a dish that is durable, easy to clean and helps to keep your dog and your family healthier?
