Title: Metal dog feeders Post by: fowlerton1 on June 08, 2015, 09:35:13 pm Looking to see what's out there for metal hanging dog feeders, like the sheep and pig feeders but can't find any that are metal. What are y'all using that have plasting chewing dogs? Clip ins at tsc won't hold bowls in place....

but I like feeding my dogs daily...I let them run while I clean and wash down the kennels...I take this time to sort of train dogs but mainly pups to my call, simulating calling them out of the woods and to gunfire etc...etc...so that is why I prefer feeding daily...

I looked on their site and no price.
Title: Re: Metal dog feeders Post by: Bryant on June 10, 2015, 08:51:19 am Bryant, how much do them feeders cost? I looked on their site and no price. I think there around $25. I know the owner Gale used to set up and sell them and a bunch of other stuff each year at Uncle Earls. I know he passed away a couple years back, so I'm not sure if they still go to Louisiana or not...but I think they are still in business. When I bought mine, I ordered 30 of them so we worked out a price and he crated them all up and sent common carrier. Title: Re: Metal dog feeders Post by: fowlerton1 on June 10, 2015, 05:30:21 pm Thanks for the ideas. Just ordered some of the TNT feeders. FYI they are now $40 a piece

I prefer plastic, these come in doubles and just take a hack saw and cut it then you have two. And it's not to big so when your wife feeds she can't over feed to much, lol Title: Re: Metal dog feeders Post by: CHThoggin on June 13, 2015, 01:12:09 am I use the metal scoops that are one the grain elevators conveyor belts. I had them sandblasted and coated. I use the same thing and enjoy them! Just didn't go the extra step of sand blasting and coating. Here's a few pics of mine I'll try to remember to get some better ones tomorrow.
