Stop replacing. Start investing: a professional no-contact feeding solution that includes 1×2L (≈67.6 fl oz / ≈2.11 US qt) 316 stainless bowl.
Quick Answers
- Who is it for? Veterinarians, commercial kennels/boarding, shelters, professional breeders/trainers, and prosumers who want commercial-grade gear.
- Is a bowl included? Yes. The standard kit includes one 2L (≈67.6 fl oz / ≈2.11 US qt) 316 stainless steel bowl.
- Does installation require kennel modification? Yes — requires a permanent bolt-on installation into rigid panels (welded wire, steel tube panels, or solid wood). Not recommended for flexible chain-link fencing.
- Installation time? ~20–30 minutes per unit for an experienced installer (we supply a 1:1 cutting template and video).
What this solves
- Safety — No need to open the kennel door to deliver food, dramatically reducing bite and injury risk for staff.
- Medical-grade hygiene — 304 stainless frame resists corrosion and endures harsh disinfectants; included 316 bowl adds additional corrosion resistance where it matters.
- Real operational savings (calculation example) —
Time saved per feeding = 90 s − 15 s = 75 s.
Twice daily = 150 s/day → 2.5 minutes/day per dog.
For 40 dogs: 1.6667 hours/day → ≈608.33 hours/year.
At $17/hour: ≈ $10,342.67/year (illustrative ROI). - Built to last — Welded rectangular tube frame, dual-hinge support, and Z-brace bowl reinforcement address the failure points of cheaper designs.
- Professional finish — Improves facility image and aligns with biosecurity and grant/funding narratives.

FAQ
Q: Does it include bowls?
A: Yes. The standard kit includes one 2L (≈67.6 fl oz / ≈2.11 US qt) 316 stainless steel bowl. Pro packages with two fitted bowls are available.
Q: Why 304 frame and 316 bowl?
A: 304 provides strength, hygiene, and corrosion resistance for the structural parts. 316 offers added corrosion resistance for parts (like bowls) that receive more direct exposure to water/chemicals, improving long-term durability.
Q: Is it chew-proof?
A: The 304/316 stainless construction is highly chew-resistant for most dogs. No product is absolutely indestructible to prolonged extreme force. Our warranty covers hardware failure under normal use (see warranty details).
Q: Will installation void my kennel warranty?
A: Check your facility/rental agreement first. We offer guidance on temporary alternatives but permanent bolt-on installation is recommended for proper stability.
Warranty & aftercare
Lifetime hardware warranty: Under normal use, failed hardware components (hinges, latch, screws, nuts) will be replaced free of charge — customer pays shipping. Bowls and damage from external force are not covered. See full warranty terms for details.
