Large Adirondack Pet Feeder

Pamper your pet with his own special feeder. These bowls and bowl stands are attractive yet fully functional. These stands are elevated and hold your pet's bowls up off of the cold floor which is great for large dogs and dogs with long necks, such as greyhounds. Arthritic dogs also benefit from raised food bowls as it reduces the pain in their shoulders and neck area when they eat. This stand also helps to keep the mess from your four-legged friend's eating area in one spot. Each of these feeders is handcrafted from 100% cedar and are built to last for years. This feeder comes with two stainless steel bowls which are easy to clean.

These Cedar Pet Feeders are handcrafted from Northern White Cedar and are shipped in its natural color of pale tan or light gold. Over time, the color will change evenly to a silvery gray, but this can be delayed by using water based or oil stains on the furniture. The fresh cedar odor is a mild insect repellent so these products are resistant to insect damage and decay. Our Northern Cedar, grown in the Northeastern United States, is natural and untreated. Only the most carefully select cedar trees are used. Cedar is the best choice for all kinds of furniture as it absorbs and loses moisture slowly, which minimizes the dry cracking, splintering and swelling which is more commonly found in oak and pine.

The Adirondack Pet Feeders are unique in that it is made with small diameter cedar logs. Since whole logs are used, all logs will have cracks or checks. This is natural due to the phenomenon that is part of the drying process of logs. When these logs are dried, the wood shrinks in length and width and creates tension in the wood. This tension develops due to shrinkage causing the log to split to relieve the tension and these lenthwise cracks are knows as checks. The check is never very deep so the structural integrity of the log is only slightly compromised.

The large Adirondack Pet Feeder is ideal for large dogs. Each feeder measures 24 inches wide by 14 inches deep by 12 inches high. They ship fully assembled in one box. Each feeder comes with two 2-quart stainless steel bowls.
