Crisp and stylish, this updated kitchen is more than a place of culinary delights for the masters of the house. The project provided the perfect time to integrate a

dog feeding station

into the bamboo island to give the four legged inhabitants their own dining spot. Elevated feeding bowls have a two fold purpose. Incorporating them into the overall

kitchen design

keeps them off the floor (and out of the way) and, typically, helps keep the area cleaner. Veterinarians agree that raising both water and food bowls can give

large breed dogs

much needed back and neck relief and will help prevent digestive issues caused by gulping food. Keeping feeding bowls in a drawer also aids in portion control.
