The dog feeding routine: comfort and beauty for them too

Mealtime is part of a dog’s daily routine and says a lot about their wellbeing. It’s not just a practical gesture, but a small ritual of balance and care, where functionality and aesthetics coexist naturally. Organizing the feeding area properly means making life more comfortable for the dog and more harmonious for those who live with them.

Choosing the Right Bowl

Every dog has their own size, and the bowl should naturally adapt to their needs.
The Sebastiao bowls stand out for their solid, well-balanced structure, ideal for medium- to large-sized dogs that need a stable base and deeper shape. Their architectural design blends elegantly into any home interior.

The Sarah bowls, on the other hand, are lighter and more compact, with clean lines and a simple form — perfect for small or medium-sized dogs.
Being less deep than the Sebastiao, they are especially recommended for dogs with shorter muzzles, such as French Bulldogs, Shih Tzus or Pugs, who find it easier to reach their food comfortably.

Both collections are made with durable materials and refined finishes, and can be washed in the dishwasher, although some owners may still prefer gentle handwashing.

How to Wash the Dog’s Bowls

Cleaning the bowls regularly is essential to ensure hygiene and durability. Use mild detergents and warm water, rinsing carefully.
The 2.8 bowls, whether in ceramic or steel, are designed to be practical, lightweight and safe for contact with water and food.
Consistent maintenance prevents odors and residues, keeping each meal pleasant and hygienic.

Organizing the Feeding Area

Creating a dedicated area for meals helps the dog experience this moment with calm and order. It’s important that the surface is stable, non-slip and easy to clean.
The Bruce placemat is the ideal accessory: practical, elegant and made from durable materials, it protects the floor and visually defines the feeding zone.
Its understated design pairs perfectly with both Sebastiao and Sarah bowls, maintaining balance and visual coherence.

How to Make a Dog Bowl Stand

Those who prefer a custom bowl stand can create one from a solid structure, proportionate to the dog’s size, using wood or other natural materials.
The base should be non-slip and set at the correct height to support posture during meals.
Here too, the 2.8 philosophy applies: simplicity, functionality and beauty designed to last.

Why Dogs Tip Over Their Bowls

Sometimes dogs tip over their food bowls simply as a playful or curious act. In other cases, the bowl might be too light or unstable.
Choosing models with a solid base, such as the Sebastiao, or pairing them with the Bruce placemat, helps prevent unwanted movement and keeps mealtime tidy.

Harmony and Design in Everyday Life

Mats, bowl stands and accessories complete the feeding area, making it both functional and pleasing to live with.
Selecting them with the same care given to home furnishings allows the dog’s routine to blend seamlessly into the home’s aesthetic language.

Caring for your dog’s feeding routine means thinking about functionality, cleanliness and comfort, while also appreciating the beauty of well-made, authentic and lasting objects.
With the Sebastiao, Sarah and Bruce collections, every meal becomes a balance of practicality, order and refined design — according to the philosophy of 2.8 design for dogs.
