Product Information

Full details

The Ruffwear Basecamp Slow Feeder Insert is designed for dog owners who need to help their pets slow down during mealtime to prevent bloating and improve digestion. This durable, food-safe silicone insert transforms a standard bowl into an engaging puzzle feeder, providing mental stimulation while encouraging a healthier pace. While highly effective at reducing rapid eating, users should note that it is specifically engineered to fit the matching Basecamp Bowl, and may not provide a secure fit in standard bowls from other manufacturers.

FAQs

Is this feeder suitable for wet food?

Yes, the silicone design works well with wet food, though it requires more thorough cleaning after use.

Can I use this with any dog bowl?

The insert is specifically designed to fit the Ruffwear Basecamp Bowl and is not guaranteed to work with other bowl brands.

What material is the insert made from?

It is made from food-grade, BPA-free silicone.

Is the insert chew-proof?

While durable, it is not a chew toy. Supervise your dog during mealtime and remove the bowl once they have finished eating.

How do I ensure it stays clean?

It is top-rack dishwasher safe, or you can hand-wash it using warm water and mild soap.

Troubleshooting

The insert moves around inside the bowl

Ensure the bowl is dry before placing the insert, as excess moisture can reduce the grip of the silicone against the base.

Food gets stuck in the deep crevices

Soak the insert in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before scrubbing with a soft brush to reach trapped particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the feeder, simply press the silicone insert into the bottom of your Basecamp Bowl; the friction fit keeps it stable during feeding. It is compatible exclusively with the Ruffwear Basecamp Bowl series. For maintenance, remove the insert after every use. It can be hand-washed with mild dish soap or placed on the top rack of your dishwasher. Always inspect the silicone periodically for signs of wear or damage to ensure your dog does not ingest any loose pieces.
