Abstract

A pet bowl is provided with a non-skid material attached to an outer wall and having improved frictional and drag properties. The non-skid material is molded over a portion of the bottom of the bowl. The non-skid material has components that extend downwardly along the outer wall and outwardly from the outer wall to contact a ground surface, with a gap defined along a contact surface between the downwardly extending and outwardly extending components of the material. The outwardly extending component of the non-skid material is preferably longer than the downwardly extending component for increased drag capabilities and to further inhibit movement of said pet bowl along a ground surface.
