Ans: When looking for the best dog water bowl, the shape of the bowl is most important, the material and the capacity needs to be checked. The ideal shape of a bowl for water/liquid food for a pet is one that is broad at the top and tapering as it goes down.
It needs to be completely smooth and free from any sharp edges or splinters (in wood bowls). This needs to be checked because pets are known to lick bowls dry when thirsty or if the liquid food appeals to them.
Sharp edges or splinters are likely to cause severe pain and discomfort to a pet and will seriously affect the feeding habits of the pet. It is, therefore, necessary to ensure that you pick a bowl made of the right material when you intend to use it for water/liquid food.
