Meat Loaf Pans as Basset Hound Food Bowls?
Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and looking to keep ears clean while hounds are eating lovers…..
I was wondering if anyone out in INTERNET land uses what I call meat loaf pans for water dishes or feeding basset hounds? Their long narrow shape seems to allow the ears to fall to the side. I put Chaps bowl on a no slide pad because he eats in the kitchen on a hard wood floor.
Here is Emma in the dining room.
I use this type of dish in my complement of dishes and it always seems that Chaps and Emma’s ears are cleaner after feeding. It also seems that they fit in the dishwasher better.
My meat loaf pans are the blue pyrex type but you can buy the metal type as well. That is a 1/2 cup measure next to the bowl. My kids each get a cup of kibble per meal, 2 times a day with a small amount of potato mush.
What do you think? Oh, and I have one more question. Do you wash your hound food bowls in the dish washer with your dishes? My answer is yes. However, I wash on high heat water and high heat rinse.
More asking questions later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma
What a great idea.
And yes, I wash Bailey’s food and water dishes on high in my dishwasher, after a quick rinse-off in the sink.
Everyone enjoys clean dishes.
I hand wash Slinky’s food and water bowls, but I have never tried these loaf pans. I think the aluminum loaf pans are a great idea for travelling.
Neat idea about the loaf pans, Cat! And as for washing their bowls, I do both–handwash and/or put them in the dishwasher.

That is a good idea. We have round aluminum bowls. I hand wash our bowls with hot water only. Then they drip dry upside down for about an hour and go back in the closet on a shelf and wait for the next day.
