Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Miller Chow Hound dispense food?
It uses a gravity-fed design where food flows down from the storage hopper into the tray as your dog eats, keeping the dish filled automatically.
Can this feeder be used outdoors?
Yes. The galvanized steel construction is weather-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use in covered or exposed areas.
What size kibble works best with the Chow Hound feeder?
Standard dry kibble works well. Very small or irregularly shaped pieces may flow too freely, while oversized kibble could occasionally bridge in the chute.
How do you clean the Miller 128716 feeder?
The feeder can be disassembled for cleaning. Wash the tray and hopper with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and allow to dry completely before refilling.
Is this feeder suitable for multiple dogs?
The 50 lb capacity and open tray design can serve multiple dogs, but it does not offer portion control, so it is best suited for free-feeding households.
