Episode description

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?
