"I have a 12-year-old English Bulldog who has a little trouble breathing when she eats, so I thought the elevated bowls would help. First I bought the 12" diner, and it was too tall. So I got the 8" diner, and it's a good height, but she just doesn't seem comfortable using it. Plus, the bowls are too small for her water. And water gets underneath the bowl and pools there, which isn't sanitary. And finally, it's hard to wash the entire diner in the sink because it's so big. So I took them both back and went back to her regular bowls. It is indeed a great concept, and I think it would work great for a different breed of dog (or a different dawg than mine!)."
