    Vacation time
    I know I read a few posts here in the past about vacationing but cannot seem to locate them.

    I am going camping for 5 days. I have one bp that is really upset at her water bowls. She is always tipping them over so I am worried about her. I have tried many different sizes & weights of bowls & she tips them all.

    Any hints on what to do with her? No one can come check on her, only ones that would do it & that I would trust in my house are going with me. My wife suggest super gluing the bowl to the tub, but I don't really want that lol.

    Also since I can't seem to find the other posts on this topic, should I hold back on feeding the week prior to avoid messes while I am away?

    Thanks as always

    Have you tried the ceramic bowls for baking? Those are very sturdy, and I know Walmart also sells ceramic dog bowls that are long and flat over tall and those work really good too. I use both of those for my tippers.

    Try the dog dishes that are designed not to tip, or the low profile rock water dishes you see at pet stores.
    And I wouldn't hold off on feeding, I like to keep them on schedule. If they are eating don't mess with it. That's my 2 cents.

    Yeah that is what I am using now but somehow it still manages to upset her & she takes her anger out on it. I don't know how she is doing it but pretty much clockwork it's when I just get in bed I hear a BAM then know it's her.

    The rock dish is doing great for me. It's heavy compared to her, so she can go all over it without making it budge.
