We have received many requests to build a raised feeder for dogs with Megaesophagus. We worked with a few owners of dogs with Megaesophagus and think we have come up with a raised feeder that may aid in digestion.

What is Megaesophagus? It is a disorder in dogs where the tube (esophagus) connecting the throat to the stomach loses its ability to transport food. The dog must be fed in an elevated stance so that gravity can aid in bringing food down into the stomach.

Here are a few benefits of the Megaesophagus Feeder by TrendyPet.com:

• The top feeding surface is tilted at a 15 degree angle downward so that your pet does not have to bend its head to reach the food
  
  
• The top surface also has a radius at the front edge so if your pet leans against it during feeding they will not be resting on a sharp edge
  
  
• The front step of the feeder will nest inside when the feeder is not in use to give you more floor space in between feedings
  
  
• The feeder comes in 3 sections that are easily assembled without tools it was designed this way to save on shipping cost

We came up with another new product idea for Trendy Pet, it's the Martini Feeder (maybe we spent one too many nights at the bar). This sleek, modern feeder comes with two stemless Martini glasses, each holds about 1.25 cups of water. The 4" tall feeder will be $64.99 and the 6" tall will be $68.99. We'll have these available for purchase on our site very soon, if you just can't wait please contact us.

Jan Le over at Luv My Dog just sent us an email inviting us to their grand opening in Vancouver on March 31. Unfortunately we will not be able to attend, but I wanted to pass the invitation onto our Trendy Pet customers. Luv My Dog will be featuring our raised dog bowls and a bunch of other trendy goodies for your pups.

I mentioned that Trendy Pet was playing around with a few new product ideas...well here's your sneak peek. Check out our gigantic new raised feeder!! It is 28" tall and comes with two 5 quart bowls. That's enough to hold 2 gallons of water!! Perfect for those extra large breed dogs.

Just so you can see how big this feeder is I took a picture of it with our our 18" tall feeder with two 2 quart bowls and the 8" tall feeder with two 1 quart bowls.

You'll notice the new feeder is made with thicker material. We wanted to make sure it was sturdy and was able to stand up against those "not-so-coordinated" big dogs.

I know you are asking "so when can I get one?" We expect it to be available for sale on our site around April 16... the perfect way to spend your tax refund :)
