Is this strong enough, even at its tallest, not to collapse or even totter, if it my dog would never eat out of it again.

Agreed, mine has never toppled, and that's with two big 95 lb. dogs eating out of it at the same time. The legs lock into place very securely and the whole thing is pretty robust, it's not some flimsy, cheaply made stand. It's really great for traveling too.

I started with one and now I have 4. I have 2 boxers and these bowls are great. We keep 2 folded up in the Jeep for our "rides" and the other 2 are in our home at about 3/4 hight. They're built sturdy, absolutely no wobbling, and they have heavy rubber feet to prevent sliding too. Just make sure the legs are "clicked" in and you'll have no issues. Get one, you and you pup will love it!!!

We use it to travel. We had it up for three days. Water on one side and food in the other. We like it. We will be taking it on another trip this weekend. The legs are angled and don't teeter.FYI the mat that Amazon carries is not big enough to fit under the stand you need to order the large one from here http://www.doggiecoutureshop.com/Dog_Placemat_p/wp-c2c-dx30636-8.htmIt was too expensive from the manufacturers.With shipping it was outrageous.http://store.dexas.com/pet-bowl-grippmat/

We have used it at all heights and the dog never toppled it. We experimented in different areas of the kitchen and WE accidentally kicked it by opening a door near it and the water spilled, but it never toppled.

No, the only way would be if an adult was to sit on top of it. Or if a kid climbed on top of it. It is not made for anyone to climb or sit on it. Once the frame is locked in place it will not fold up untill you release it. My Koda use's his every night and it has never closed on him and he even pushes on the screens and lay's against them and it has never collapsed on him. I hope this answers your Question or at least reasures you it won't collapse with your dog in it. Sally Riojas

It appears to be pretty strong. My dog has pawed at it and it is fine. Do not walk on it; you can take a header; very slippery.

I think it would be strong enough; I'm not sure if 2-15 lb dogs would be comfortable. Mine are 7 and 9 lbs, just fit nicely.

Probably not. It's not very heavy and can easily be pushed over or the individual sections can become separated. It's absolutely great for small dogs and puppies. If a medium or large dog wants out, it will get out. Hope that helps.

Yes, it is very good for small dogs, my dog is now 16 pounds and he is a very hyper dog... he manages to move it when he wants to get out so if your dog likes to jump a lot this will not hold as much, but overall it keeps him in there. He is a chewer too but has not been able to rip anything apart, also the bottom is washable so that's helpful but I don't really use it. Hope this helped!

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

It might-if your dog will not try to jump over it or push it down. I have used it that way when our dog was a puppy and couldn't jump over it or knock it over. Now she is big and would push it right over!

We raised a strong pup in this and it never collapsed but it is not hard to take apart or set up

I wouldn't trust it very long crushing dog food cans. Not built strong enough to hold up long term.

No, we have a 63 lb lab. He has caught it in his mouth several times. We have thrown it on the driveway, hard as possible. It only comes apart if you take it apart, or don't put it together right. Have fun! Don't make it so complicated.

It is a gravity feeder so any kind of dry food should be able to tumble through it. I usually fill it up once a week for 4 kitties to nibble on. Hopefully your dog is the type that can walk away when full.

The tube bracing lines up and a bigger tube with a button lock slides over the joined bracing. Unless your dog chews on the exact place where the pencil eraser sized button lock is, and then slides the bigger tube over to un join the bracing, I doubt it would collapse.

No. I got mine just a week ago and with a shih tzu using it, it is already showing signs of use and becoming flat. Not sturdy at all.

While it may be strong enough, I think its too small. I have a 22lb poodle that I wouldn't put in there.

Mine is holding my shih Tzu who is 15lbs with no trouble. The inside lining is starting to rip though. Very sturdy

We never had a problem with it. The surface is rough yet for good traction it is needed. The dog that we bought it for is deceased so it is currently stored . We have another large dog and if needed we have it. It is strong and we never had concern of it collapsing with our dog. I hope Suzanne this helps provide some comfort about it.
