How well does the anti-skid bottom work when using for food dish for large dogs? Surface is wood floor.

I use mine on wood and on concrete when they eat outside. They slip once in a while if they are licking really hard at something stuck to the sides. My largest dog is 50#. I bought mine because my other stainless steel bowls would travel the whole room while they ate. Don't have that issue anymore. I am really pleased with these bowls and especially the price.

Perhaps putting it over a large shallow pan would be a better option than trying to balance it on a bowl. Put a non-skid mat under the pan for additional stability.

The bottom is not slippery. If you draped it over both sides it might stay. Pet could pull it off, though. My dog stayed away from it.

I use mine on a tile floor and it's not slippery. The stool is very sturdy and collapses nearly flat. I really like it. Cheers.

Its adjustable, and I noticed you mentioned being concerned about your dogs. We have 2 dogs. One is very determined to get on the dining table to search for leftovers so we are vigilant about any food left on the table. The highchair is a different matter: in the 3.5 years we've been using our chair (2 babies) neither dog has tried to get food off the tray. What falls on the floor is fair game, however.

The tray is made from hard plastic, so it will slide on a hard floor. You could put some dots of hot glue on the bottom to keep it from skidding (note, don't glue the tray to your floors, just flip the tray upside down, dot the bottom with hot glue, wait for hot glue to completely dry then flip the tray back over)

I have a laminate floor, and there is no slipping whatsoever. I imagine it would be the same for wood. The item itself is pretty heavy.

Well it has a non slip rubber strip. But I still secure the bottom with my foot, when my dogs go up and down. But honestly its a good investment for senior dogs. I use mine for my RV.

Yes, it has a rubbery bottom which helps to secure it a bit. Of course it will move around somewhat but to secure it in place more it's best to attach it to the changing table in the back. That's how we have it. If you put a cover on it then it will no longer be non-skid b/c the cover goes over the sides of the non-skid bottom and that makes it slide around on wood furniture. but that's how it is for all changing pads. We've tried more than one pad and still use this one for over a year. for the price it's a good product.

I'm not too sure if the non-skid can with stand a large heavy breed. My breeds are smaller and cannot move the bowl on a tile floor. I have seen some actual suction-hold bowls bottoms. I thick I saw it on Amazon, however, check them out. I do recall there being a lever on the side to secure the suction. Good Luck!

I bought a tiny stainless steel dog dish... couple of dollars and it works well. Kind of weird idea though. Don't buy the ones with the rubber bottoms.

The part that sits on the floor does not have a skid resistant bottom. We haven't had a problem the step stool sits on a tile floor in the bathroom. The steps are skid resistant.....

I have two big dogs also. They aren't real furry but they do she'd a good bit. I don't use it on hardwood floors a lot, but when I do it seems to work fine. One nice feature is that it's easy to disable the brushes when using on hardwood.

Ours doesn't slide around at all. We have two -- one as a boot tray and one as a tray to hold our Golden Retriever's food and water dishes. The trays are on a slate surface. They are an excellent product and value.

HI--I checked my dog's crate--there is a larger grid on the bottom--no problem yet with pan sliding. I bought her the mat for it, too, which she loves. It's about 2 in thick, foam covered with a nice fuzzy material, paid about 26 bucks for it My dog weighs 35 lb. She can turn around in it--you know how they do before they lay down. If I were you I would get the next larger size for your dog. I think my gal feels more secure in her crate. Awaiting some T-storms to see if she will go in it then.

The "grippers" are just cloth. That said, the bottom is solid, so you could pick up a piece of foam rubber at Hobby Lobby or Walmart for less than a buck and glue it to the bottom. I never bothered to do that and it doesn't slide around too much on our floor (also wood). We have a 50-pound corgi and a 75-pound hound dog that both use these steps.

If you mount it higher than floor level , doggie should have no problem stepping over the base, as long as his width fits through ok !
