v2: added built-in scoops that are also volumetrically accurate. You should be able to scoop and let it fall into the bowl.
The vet says my guy needs to go on a diet, so these are half-cup and 2x half-cup dog bowls, which was recommended.
- I measured the height of his food (about 1cm) and made it the depth of the bowl, so the food will be one layer deep.
- I used the cylinder-volume formula (V=πr^2h) to make the bowl as wide as possible within the portion recommended, so from the top it's somewhat the size of his old bowl.
I'm hoping he won't notice it's only 1 layer / 1 cm deep instead of the 3-4-5cm deep pile he was getting 2x per day. 2 days in, it seems to be working but I think he's on to me.
Starter:
One half cup dog food and one half cup plain Cheerios, twice a day
"…since they're basically the same thing and he thinks he's getting a treat."
Vet
Work down to:
One half cup of dog food and cheerio mix, twice per day. Until normal weight is reached.
Ongoing:
One half cup of dog food, monitor to see if that's about right.
