Is your pal a chow hound, gulping down food without swallowing? If the answer is yes, you’ll want to know all about a great new product. DogPause, a bowl designed to help slow dogs down when they eat. The best part…we’re giving away twenty bowls! All you need to do to enter is leave a comment on why you would like to win a DogPause bowl, twenty lucky winners will be selected at random. Now there’s something to bark about.
Introducing DogPause, the first dog bowl with proprietary SlowZonesTM and integrated portion control.
You know how you feel when you eat too fast (or eat too much). Same thing with your dog — it’s not healthy for him or her to inhale the food.
We experienced a recent episode with Logan, our Bernese Mountain dog. He scarfed down a bowl of food and started showing symptoms of what we thought were the early signs of bloat. Luckily, it ended up being “the gulps”, but now we now realize the importance of slowing down his eating time.
DogPause is the only dog bowl clinically proven to slow down dogs’ eating. In clinical tests run by professional vets, DogPause slowed down dogs by an average of 50% vs. standard dog bowls. As vets will confirm, a slower eating dog is a happier, healthier dog with less risk of experiencing (or doing) all sorts of yucky things like vomiting, gas, belching, gagging, life-threatening bloat, etc. Which makes life better for you and your dog…
So get those paws typing because the contest starts today and ends July 31st.
I know the answer…we all do. Let’s face it, we all want to be giving out some of those crazy SPAM hats in the gift shop to all of our buddies.
To that end I will give away a whopping five free zealies to the first response in the comments section to the following question. Oh, if my wife is reading this, you are not eligible. Bo, that goes for you too.
What dog has been a member of Dogster.com the longest?
If you are anything like my wife Lisa and I you have more pictures of your dog(s) than your family. Now you can put some of those great shots to use by submitting them to Milk-Bone, and you may very well be on the way to a $100,000 spokesdog contract.
If you need some helping getting that great shot, here’s a little video to help you get it. Sure the video includes pictures of Pamela Anderson, Hillary Duff, Nicole Ritchie and a host of other famous folks but more importantly it contains pictures of their dogs.
Good luck, and we just may be seeing you in ads across the media spectrum!

Tresa at the Oregon League of Conservation Voters (OLCV) barked over this announcement. They’re looking for the new face of a watchdog mascot. Does your furbaby have what it takes?
Hi,
I work at OLCV and we are having a contest to find the best face to represent our watchdog work. For over thirty years, we have worked as the independent political voice for Oregon’s environment.
I would like to know if you would post our contest on your blog. It is a free contest that we originally opened to our members at the beginning of January. But then we thought why not take it do ALL dog lovers? I have included the text from our own blog below.
Please let me know if you can help us reach out to the dog lovers out there.
I LOVE this contest. Oh yes, I love all the Dogster and Catster strolls because I get to see lots of fun pictures of members of our really big pack but Sharing and Caring is extra nice since it has pictures of Dogsters and Catsters doing good things for others. How do you beat that?
