OK- I have an English mastiff- he has recently acquired the habit of eating trash etc. Will this stop that and what size would a mastiff need??

With this on he will NOT be eating anything, PERIOD. Or drinking for that matter. Not to be left on! Only use when needing to protect handlers or visitors.

My Yorkipoo has been on Embark since he was 4 months old, he 10 months now. I do notice him eating better, than the dog food we were given when we got him. As far as less, I guess it depends on the dog. I would contact Honest Kicthen.com and ask them about there food. There very helpful, if you ask they will give you samples to try!

I gave it to my dog for about 2 months and she seemed to be a little better but now I am not giving it her she has reverted back to eating poop. It seems to be a habit that is hard to break the vet told me to put meat tenderizer in her meals but I don't think that worked either. Someone told me not to pick up and put hot chili sauce on it and when they go to eat it it taste bad and that sometimes helps. We pick up all the time but if there is one lot out there she finds it, we tell her off but she still does it. I am told it is a natural thing but I have never had a dog that did it before, so very frustrating. Sorry I haven't been much help but that's my experience.

Hello,The bowls are very big, but I don't now exactly how big. I'm sure they will be big enough for a mastiff. I have a Black Russian Terrier, which is a giant breed and those bowls are big for him - I feed him twice a day and never fill the bowls. I actually wish they were smaller, I put smaller bowls in the original ones.Otherwise I like this feeder very much, looks pretty good, stylish ( mine is pastel green with black).Hope that helps.

Probably not. We have reinforced with zip ties but our English Mastiff is mild mannered and even when he paws the cage in a friendly manner it shakes. If he is a rowdy dog I would go with the kennels they use in the groomers or vet...with the wheels attached. Super heavy duty. I can send you a link if you still need it. They sell them on Amazon.

I'm not an expert however I would suggest getting the extra large we got the XXL but our dog doesn't seem interested in the thing. Will try again come springtime. Just a note if you use the peanut butter in it I would wait until spring or when it's warmer because it freezes in this weather especially if a dog is outdoors

My dog is 100 pounds [small for a Mastiff, but he was the runt of the litter] and he is comfy but roomy in the largest size. I can't say for sure about your dog, but they give crate measurements, so I would just take out a tape measure and eyeball what crate's measurements look best for your dog. I actually also measured my dog with the tape measure too. Measure him or her completely stretched out so you know the dimensions will accomodate him or her with his or her legs stretched if you intend to have him or her sleep in there. Good luck! [P.S. I got mine thru Amazon warehouse and it was a little cheaper and still came in excellent condition!] My dog is 100 pounds [small for a Mastiff, but he was the runt of the litter] and he is comfy but roomy in the largest size.

Chris, where did you read that? It would be helpful to know so that I can make an educated decision on whether to keep buying these for my dog. Thanks.

My little dog cannot get in the box (Italian greyhound). My border collie could, but I wedged it with the hole to the wall in a corner and the vacuum cleaner next to it. The reach into the hole is too far for him to stretch in there. It is working. Of course, he will not dig the box out of the corner as some more tenacious large dogs might do.Why are dogs so nasty anyway about eating cat poop!?!?! Bleh!!!

I wouldn't worry too much as they take a while to break down my pug had one for a good two wks and that's chewing daily. If you're worried about weight try antler chews they are rock hard and so good for them , but they'll take years to make a dent in !

I would not recommend for big dogs. I have a mastiff and the water spills into the base and gets the food wet so we don't even store the food in the bottom anymore. Unless you stay on top of cleaning the top, it warps It is tough but no longer attractive and not useful

My dog is a 5.5 pitbull when i was giving him bully max i did notice when he would walk up the steps his back and neck were more muscular. It gave him diarrhea so i stopped giving it to him. I recommend boiling chicken and giving him boiled chicken and raw egg mixed in his food. Dont dump the chicken broth feed him that too. Just try upping his protein intake and making sure hes getting daily exercise. Depending on how old he is it might just be how its going to be. Just like when we get old taking body building supplements isnt going to do much when your 90 lol. Good luck. Talk to your vet about options.

I don't think so. he'll just have an advantage in getting the treats dispensed! The base at largest point is 4 inches and it is 6 inches tall. I have an irish Terrier , 25 pounds medium dog, and it's pretty big for him....but he bats it around to get the treats. Your Mastiff might carry it around but I think he will like it! Good luck...terrific toy BTW....VERY durable......

I think it will. I have an English Mastiff and she is 7 months @ 95lbs. It is very, very large on her with a LOT of room to grow.

i am not sure if your pet will fit, my mastiff weighs 102 pounds and he fits, but barely, its his shoulders though that are the problem he is broad shouldered and still a puppy, so if your dog is more slender he may fit fine. its the width that concerns me when my dog gets larger, i will need something larger for him. good luck.

I would try a small bag of the taste of the wild first to see if he has any issues with it. Also the puppy blend is higher in calories which puppy's need and can use because they are very active. Once he is over a year or when recommend by your vet I would switch to the adult blend.

Labs (including my own) are notorious for ingesting inappropriately large pieces of whatever they're chewing. I really have to watch him with any rawhide - a couple of times almost had to Heimlich him before he gagged it up. If your dog displays any signs of lethargy or distress eliminating, definitely get him to the vet to x-ray his stomach. Most of these products have warnings about the dangers of such incidents. Thanks for the heads-up though...my guy may need to live without them, even though it looks like something he'd enjoy!
