Scruffs bowls are made from strong, thick and heavy stoneware. The thick bases and walls of the bowls add weight, helping the bowls to stay still when pets are feeding, unlike with plastic or steel bowls. As stoneware is a relatively poor conductor of heat, the thick walls also help to keep food cooler for longer. Scruffs glazes are chip and bite resistant, making them the perfect material and finish for pet bowls. Most shapes also feature finger holds, making it more comfortable for pet parents to serve and pick up bowls.The Scruffs water bowls have been specifically designed for dogs to drink from with optimal comfort. Dogs' tongues curl backwards when drinking, lifting water into their mouths like a ladle. Many pet owners think that food bowls can be used as water bowls, but low sided drinking bowls don't provide the depth needed for dogs to curl their tongues back with comfort, which is why we gave our water bowls the height that they need. Crafted from heavy, quality stoneware ceramic, this timeless contemporary style bowl will suit all modern interiors and sizes of dogs. Chip and bite resistant, the durable Classic Water Bowls have high sides to assist dogs in drinking comfortably and naturally with an ergonomic finger hold for easy serving.
