I take my pug Chublet to the pug meetup group (check out meetup.com for one near you) and each year, they celebrate Pug-O-Ween. Of course we attended! Here’s a gallery of pics of just a few of the pugs we saw:

Here are some pics of my little boy:

And here is what he looked like when we got home:

I followed a link to a neat site with various items for pet owners that I had never seen before, including this pet bowl:
The site is Petego and the bowl is called the Chicky Babe. There is even a matching mat if you peruse the various sections of the site.

There are a lot of unique pet bowls out there, so I decided to put together a list of at least ten really neat pet bowls. So the chicky babe was number one. Let’s look at the rest!

2. Wowo 2 Raised Series Feeders from The Pawhaus Pet Boutique - These feeders are not only beautiful, but raised feeders are supposed to be good for the health of dogs by allowing them to eat with a more natural posture, and better for your home by making mealtime cleaner.

3. Lentek Six Day Automatic Feeder - My sister has an automatic pet feeder for her cat and it works very well to ensure that it gets fed on time all the time, and that her food is always measured out carefully and that she sticks to her diet. This type of auto feeder would work well for a small dog.

4. Outward Hound No Spill Port-A-Bowl - I bought this set of food bowls for when I took my big dog Anna on hikes and trips. This way I could pack up some food in the bottom bowl and water in the top. They top bowl that holds the water has a neat closure to help prevent spills while you are transporting the bowls. The water bowl zips onto the top of the food bowl, so they are quite compact. Also, when the dishes aren’t being used, you can just fold them up as they are made out of fabric.

5. Delo Dog Bowl - These bowls just look really neat! They are available in three different colors, and come in three sizes for all types of dogs. They have a handle and rubber feet to make them much easier to use, and they are washable and made out of acrylic.

6. Gold Crown Feeder - Is your pup a prince or princess? Then perhaps they need this golden crown style feeder! I can’t say that I’ve ever seen anything quite like it!

7. Wine Crate Elevated Double Feeders - At Whiner & Diner you will find pet bowls that have been fashioned out of wine crates, and they are beautiful! Available in both single and double feeders, you can choose the color of the authentic wine crate used to make your elevated feeder.

8. HduO Water Dispenser - Now you can have a water cooler for the human members of the family that also serves the canine members as well! This water cooler keeps a lower bowl filled with fresh water for your pets is auto-filled with a sensor to prevent overfilling. Pretty cool!

9. Brake Fast Bowl - This is a dog bowl designed for dogs that wolf down their food too quickly. Eating fast is linked to bloat, which can be fatal, so a bowl like this can be a lifesaver, literally. The weird pegs in the middle of the bowl force your dog to slow down. The bowl is also quite slippery on the bottom meaning the bowl will move around on the floor as they eat, making them work even harder for their meal! Poor doggies!

10. Long Eared Dog Bowl - Dogs with long ears have troubles when it comes to eating and drinking especially. Those ears tend to drag into their water and get all messy! With a long-eared-dog-bowl, your dogs ears should stay outside of the bowl because the opening to the bowl is smaller than the base. This link leads to a really nice site that has beautiful pottery bowls that are handmade, offering custom designs and pre-made designs. They have other dishes such as a short-nosed bowl, and they have other products as well.

After seeking out those unique dog dishes to share with you, I am overwhelmed with how many great dog bowls there are out there. Of course there are all kinds of cute dishes with unique designs, but there are some pretty innovative ideas now! I hope you enjoyed the list!

I’ve been very busy making a costume for Chublet, my pug. We have a local meetup group for pug owners at least once per month, and sometimes more than forty pugs are in attendance. It’s SO cute.

Anyway, every year they hold Pugoween. Last year, Chublet went in a store bought costume of Winnie the Pooh. He was just a tiny little pup then and he was SO CUTE.

This year though, my boyfriend made a funny suggestion for a costume. A roast turkey in a pan!!!

And boy, we are almost ready for Pugoween!
