The HugX 401 series® is a total re-think on dog dining. The bowl, which has no corners (no food traps), is angled at 32.5° from the horizontal allowing food to always fall into the center of the bowl while improving digestive issues. Each bowl has specific grips characterized subtly as ears and a tongue to prevent the user from touching food. Held in an aluminum holder which resembles the character of a dog’s body, its narrow waist creates an easy grip or handle for the user, keeping their hands away from the contents of the bowl. The high grip rubber feet and a wide foot print of the holder, prevent toppling or movement around the floor. As the dog feeds at the bespoke angle and food gravitates to the center of the bowl, a greater amount of downward pressure is exerted than side wards - the bowl, within the holder, sits firmly on the ground.
