Hello,

My vet recently told me that my greyhound "Chase" was suffering from arthritis and suggested raising his feeding bowl to relieve stress on his hips and shoulders. I purchased a raised dog feeder from TrendyPet.com and it is great! They even custom made a feeder just for Chase. He seems to be doing much better. Just wanted to share this with other owners whose dog may be suffering from arthritis.

Those look wonderful. We had to purchase one similiar last summer. Not for arthritis but because we have a Great Dane. [Smile]

I recently bought a raised feeder also...I also heard that they are better for digestion but I don't know how true that is..

They are really good. They can take so much pressure off of the back and joints of tall dogs.
