Bowls - To Raise or Not To Raise...

That is the question! Tune in as Cathy and Chris hotly debate this subject.

• Cathy describes her “experiment” eating out of a bowl on the floor – try it!
• Is every dog a candidate?
• How high should the bowl be raised?
• What are the biomechanical advantages for your pet?
• What is a possible con to raising the bowl if you have a larger dog? 
• What diagnoses and conditions benefit most?
• What about our cat friends?

After listening, what will your verdict be? To raise or not to raise?
