FAQs

Product Care

Are Gobi bowls suitable for all dogs?

Our bowls are designed with different dogs in mind, including dogs with flatter faces. Please check the individual product description for specific information about each bowl. Every dog is different, so we recommend choosing the product and depth that best suits your dog's size, eating style and needs.

Are Gobi ceramic products dishwasher safe?

Yes! Our ceramic products are dishwasher friendly, making clean up nice and easy. For the best care, we recommend following the care instructions provided with each product.

Can I put my Gobi ceramic products in the oven or directly on a heat source?

No. Gobi ceramic products are not designed for use in ovens, on stovetops, hotplates or any other direct heat source. 

Our products are not made for cooking and heating, but feeding and enrichment purposes. Please do not expose the ceramic to direct or extreme heat, as sudden temperature changes can cause cracking or breakage

Are Gobi bowls food safe, and can I use hot, cold or frozen food?

Yes! Our ceramic products are made for use with food and are suitable for everyday feeding and enrichment.

You can use your Gobi bowl with room-temperature, chilled or frozen foods. Our ceramic enrichment products are also great for frozen treats and meals, where specified in the individual product description.

Hot food can also be placed in the bowl, but please allow it to cool to a suitable temperature for your dog before serving.

Freezing your dog's favourite foods can be a fun way to turn mealtime into a longer-lasting enrichment activity.

Can ceramic scratch or chip?

Ceramic is durable, but like any ceramic product, it can chip or break if dropped or subjected to a significant impact.

Please check your product regularly and stop using it if it becomes cracked, chipped or damaged.

My bowl has a small variation in colour or finish. Is that normal?

Yes! Small variations in colour, glaze, texture or finish can occur with ceramic products.

These little differences are part of what makes each piece unique and won't affect its function.
