Hi can anyone (in uk) recommend a crate bowl that you can attach to crate & can't be knocked over or chewed?

I've tried a metal one & plastic one with Pip with no success. The metal one she knocked off & got her paw caught in round rim so not suitable for time she's in crate whilst we're at work. The Plastic one she knocks over, making her bedding wet & chews it so again not suitable.

I've seen this one:

But at £21 I'd want to know its gonna be suitable. Has anyone got this bowl or can you recommend another one?

We have these bowls for our crate and so far our 2 haven't managed to get them off the side of the crate as they are quite a tight fit. There are only hooks, no loops so even if they did get them off they couldn't get paws caught in them either.

not too bad a price either.

I'd just remove water from the crate, it's not getting used anyway so it might as well not be there.

I bought an attachment for a water bowl for my crate from my local petshop. You could adjust the height. I always gave mine access to fresh water in their crate day and night and they never knocked it over.

Kendal, I just thought I'd point out that Kirstie goes to work and wants to leave Pip with water which should be accessible to dogs at all times anyway, she didn't say it wasn't getting used she just wants to leave her dog with fresh water that won't get spilled into the crate

If it getting tipped over then the Bowle is not drinking from it. It's not as important (now that the weather is getting cooler )to have water in the crate.

If the dog can't be left without tipping the water then you take it away. Aether that or a large ceramic bowl that is heavy and un chewable.

How may hours is pip being left?

Barney got bought one from Wilkinsons that fixes on to the side of the crate. It was very cheap.

I know it's not that important now it's getting cooler but pip is a big drinker & she's just not that bright to realise that knocking over her bowl means she's then left without water. Pip is left for 3-4 hours in morning before dog walker comes in & feeds her (& gives her water) and then 2-3 hours till we're home.

There is no need for water in the crate if she is left a max of 4hours at a time, the dog walker will give her a drink when they come back the walk. So I woul still say if she can't be trusted not to tip it then she doesn't get it.
