The invention comprises a novel wobble bowl with a labyrinthian maze top with channels directs treats or kibble through the channels when a pet tilts the feeder. The pattern of treats spreads out within the channels to slow the rate of consumption by the pet as it has to select the treats in an individual fashion and helps eliminate overeating and overly quick consumption.

A sensor assembly on a swine-activated self-feeder allows monitoring or tracking of individual animal feeding activity, thereby allowing corrective action to be taken in instances of under-feeding or over-feeding by an animal. The sensor assembly includes a sensor on the feed dispenser and, with a printed circuit board to generate a signal corresponding to activation of the dispenser by an animal. The signal can be sent to a computer or website which generates reports on the individual animal's feeding activity.

The present application discloses an interactive intelligent pet feeding device which belongs to the technical field of pet feeding devices, including a feeding device body, the feeding device body including a pet food feeding control device and a shake detection module, the pet food feeding control device being configured to realize quantitative feeding of pet food and prevent jamming of the pet food, the shake detection module being configured to detect the motion state of the feeding device body, the shake detection module being connected to a control module to implement data communication, and the control module implementing data communication with a mobile terminal through a wireless transmission module. The feeding device body further includes an upper casing, a lower casing provided below the upper casing, the upper casing and the lower casing being connected to form an inside hollow chamber, an upper part of the chamber being provided with a granary, a top lid being provided above the upper casing, and a feeding bowl being provided outside the lower casing. The device enable pets to obtain corresponding food according to the movement of pets, realize automatic pet feeding, and solve the problems in the prior art.

Treat dispensing devices are presented including: a base, where the base includes a bowl portion and a compartment portion, where the compartment portion is positioned under the bowl portion; a dome-shaped covering removably coupled along a top edge of the bowl portion, where the dome-shaped covering includes a dome surface having at least one opening along the dome surface; a pair of drive wheels connected by a crankshaft; a dispensing mechanism actuated by rotation of the crankshaft; and a pair of stabilizing wheels. In some embodiments, the bowl portion includes: a central recessed portion; and a bottom surface surrounding the central recessed portion and sloped toward the central recessed portion.

A hog or swine feeder includes one or more stations for serving a single hog at a time. Each station includes a bowl, with a feed dispenser above the bowl, and a water dispenser below the feed dispenser. The feed and the water dispensers are actuated by the hog on demand. A hopper in the feeder supplies dry feed to the feed dispenser. The hog can select dry feed, wet feed, or drinking water, as needed.

An animal feeder apparatus including a feed hopper defining an interior for receiving a quantity of feed, an upper opening and a lower feed discharge opening. A feed shelf may be located below the feed hopper and have an upper feed support surface with at least a portion of the upper feed support surface being located directly below the feed discharge opening of the feed hopper. A feed trough may be located toward the bottom of the apparatus below the feed hopper and below the feed shelf, and form a lower feed support surface upon which feed falling from the hopper and shelf rests. A feed shelf movement assembly may be configured to permit a feeding animal to move the feed shelf from a location adjacent to the lower feed support surface of the feed trough.

The invention is a wildlife feeder comprising a support line, a reservoir, a base, a regulator, a spring designed to secure said regulator in said base, a tether attachable to said regulator and a stake such that the stake is installed in the ground to created a taut connection of the wildlife feeder with the ground. The wildlife feeder is wildlife actuated and can be customized to meter feed out to animals in a desired way given the targeted animals to feed and animals to be prevented from actuating the feeder. The spring is coupled with the regulator such that it exerts an upward force on the regulator which abuts it against an annular seat in the base. When an animal exerts force on the feeder the regulator is opened by compression of the spring and feed is metered out. There is also disclosed an optional feed tray that is either unitary with the regulator or attachable to the regulator such that feed that is dispensed lands on the feed tray for eating or dispersing by animals.

A dog toy has a cavity for holding a dog treat or another toy and is in the form of a ball and is edible. Several apertures allow a dog to see and smell the contents of the inner cavity and provide motivation for the dog to try to get at the cavity's contents. The upper and lower halves are screwed or snapped together, enabling the dog toy to be opened by a human in order to place a toy or treat in the inner cavity. The dog toy is made with a formula that results in it being sufficiently hard and durable that it will take time and effort for a dog to break through to get at the contents. The toy will therefore help clean the dog's teeth and gums as the dog chews at it.
