Material and Construction
The Gobblestopper is constructed from food-safe plastic with a suction cup base that adheres to the bottom center of a standard dog dish. The suction cup provides a secure hold that is extremely difficult for pets to dislodge during feeding, while the integrated easy-lift tab allows pet owners to remove it cleanly and quickly. The design is rated light duty, intended for use as a mealtime insert accessory rather than a standalone feeding dish.
Size, Capacity, and Usage Guidance
The small size (6 inches) is designed for use with small-breed dog dishes. Select the appropriate Gobblestopper size to match your pet's existing bowl. Place the Gobblestopper in the bottom center of the dish before adding food. The insert forces your dog to eat around the obstacle, naturally slowing the pace of consumption and reducing air intake during meals.
Functional Use - Slow Feeder
The Gobblestopper is designed to slow eating pace and reduce air gulping during meals. It is not a standalone feeding dish - it is used as an insert within your dog's existing bowl. The suction cup base keeps it securely positioned throughout the meal, and the easy-lift tab allows for simple removal and cleaning between uses.
Safety, Usage, and Storage Guidance
- Always supervise your dog during feeding
- Select the correct size Gobblestopper for your dog's bowl to ensure proper fit
- Inspect the suction cup and insert periodically for wear or damage
- Remove and clean the Gobblestopper after each use
- Store in a clean, dry location when not in use
- Consult your veterinarian if your dog shows signs of bloat or digestive distress
Cleaning and Maintenance
Remove the Gobblestopper from the bowl using the easy-lift tab after each feeding. Clean regularly to prevent food residue buildup. Hand wash with warm soapy water or follow manufacturer guidance for dishwasher use. Inspect the suction cup base periodically to ensure it maintains a secure hold.
