The SlowBowl Ritual

OUR MISSION: Turn dinner into the highlight of your dog's day.
OUR VISION: Every bowl, eaten like it matters.

why we exist ? Most dogs inhale their food in 90 seconds.
Then they're bored. Then they're bloated. Then they're staring at you.

We make slow feeders that fix all three.

Vet-approved silicone. Designed in California. Tested daily by a rescue named Jake who has very strong opinions about dinner.

That's the whole thing.

the founder bit (we'll keep it short)

Hi, I'm Anicee.

Barks & Brownies is a family business — me, my husband Laurent, and our rescue Jake, who started it all. When we couldn't find a slow feeder we trusted for him, we made one ourselves.

Every bowl we ship is made with the same care we give Jake. Because if it's not good enough for our family, it's not good enough for yours.

a small timeline of how we got here

2022

Jake comes home. Eats his first bowl of kibble in 47 seconds. We start sketching.

2023

First Rainbow slow feeder lands on our kitchen floor. Jake takes 11 minutes. We are falling in love with enrichment.

2024

Launch Barks & Brownies Enrichment collections. First 100 orders ship from our garage. My Mom (in Belgium) demands a discount code.

2025

Hit Faire Top Shop status. 0% return rate. Vet-approved. Featured in pet boutiques from San Francisco to New York.

2026

Launch the New Tandem collection. Kitty cats and more slow feeders in development. Jake remains head of QA.

we give back

A portion of every sale goes to a rotating list of California dog rescues — because Jake is the reason this brand exists, and there are a lot more Jakes out there.

So far, we've supported Second Chance Love, SPCA California, and Alameda County Animal Shelter.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — 2,000+ dogs!
