Dog Bowls Become Status Symbols as Trendy Dog Bowls Emerge
Dog bowls have become the latest status symbol among affluent dog owners across the United States. It used to be Rolex watches, flashy cars, and now more than ever people are using dog bowls and other items for their dogs as status symbols.
Boca Raton, FL, August 12, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Simple dog bowls that cost only a few dollars no longer suffice, when dog bowls now come in all colors, shapes, sizes and materials costing 10 times more than the $10 dog bowls you find at a pet store.
These status symbol dog bowls are typically ceramic dog bowls or steel dog bowls. What makes these items unusual isn't the material, it's the design. Some of these bowls come in pastel pinks and yellow colors. Others are shaped like an oval tilted on it's side - more reminiscent of a piece of modern art sculpture than a place for a dog to drink water.
In addition, to the water capacity of these personalized dog bowls, these companies offer raised dog bowls as well for those taller dogs. These elevated dog bowls are sometimes situated 1 to 2 feet above the ground. It's an ideal way to pamper senior dogs with joint problems who may have trouble bending over constantly to drink from a water bowl.
