Ceramic Dog Bowls - Cute and Customized Food or Water Bowls for Dogs and Puppies

While I do like to keep a stainless-steel water bucket in each dog's kennel, my dogs take their meals from pretty ceramic dog food bowls. Why? Quite simply, ceramic dog bowls are both darned cute and a very sensible kind of dog feeder.

  • Ceramic dog bowls look good in the kitchen, and keep looking good for years, unlike plastic dog bowls that soon get scratched and grimy looking;

  • The ceramic smooth surface doesn't give germs a place to hide, and it is easy to clean -- wipe 'em down quickly under hot water, or pick one of the many ceramic dog bowls that are dishwasher-safe;

  • Ceramic bowls are heavy enough that the dogs don't shove them around the floor while they're eating, unlike the (otherwise great) stainless steel dog food bowls.

Ceramic is Easy to Clean, Looks Great

If you've got a dog (or several), you know it can be a challenge to keep an attractive home for your human family to enjoy -- not to mention, keeping up the standards for when you've got visitors! -- when dog gear starts to take over the kitchen or wherever the heart of your home might happen to be.

But your pups deserve to have nice things, too! In association with Zazzle.com Why not replace those old scratched-up plastic food and water bowls, or dented metal dishes, with a new ceramic dog bowl that is easy to clean and looks great in your home?

A wide variety of ceramic dog food bowls are available at a reasonable price -- personalized, if you want, so each dog has their own personal bowl -- or you can create your own custom dog food bowls to exactly match the rest of your decor.

Spode China for the Hunting Dog

(Yes, it's meant for dog food.)

Spode's Woodland is a tribute to American Wildlife as well as man's favorite hunting companions. These beautiful renderings can be mixed and matched to create a wonderfully distinctive dining experience... FOR YOUR DOG, honestly!

I mean, anyone who knows me will tell you I'm all about the comfort and well-being of my dogs but fer Pete's sake, I have only a very few pieces of Spode for human table use, and those only get pulled out at festive occasions... sigh...

Moving on.

P.S.

(Yes, Zazzle is International)



Personally, I'm more of a Zazzle shopper (can you tell?), but my partner is a happy Zazzle seller. Frankly, I suspect he just likes to show off his bad puns and bee cartoons when I stop paying attention... but the fact that he makes a little extra spending money to support his hobbies doesn't hurt a bit. :)

If you've got a few minutes, I know he'd be just tickled if you visit his Zazzle store. It's called Honey Doodles, which pretty much bears out what I said about all the bad puns.

Go, be creative!!

    Love the red ceramic dog bowl with the white bones on it... so stylish! My dog is ridiculously attached to his battered old bowl, though, eyesore that it is ;)

    Acceptable, that was an inspiration to me. I am considering my personal website Dog Supplies
