Material · What is PLA?

From plants,
not petroleum.

Why Tail & Bark

Designed in CAD.
Printed for your animal.

Because each piece is made-to-order, we can do things a factory can't: tune the rim angle to your dog's size, pick the print color the day we ship, and keep refining the collection so only the best designs stay.

Practical questions

Before you
add to bag.

What is PLA Matte, and is it safe for my pet?+
PLA (polylactic acid) is a bioplastic made from fermented plant starch — primarily corn and sugarcane. The "Matte" variant adds mineral fibres for a soft, non-glossy finish. Our filament is BPA-free, phthalate-free and contains no heavy-metal pigments. As with any pet bowl, wash it regularly.
Which colors should I pick for my dog?+
Dogs have dichromatic vision: they see yellows and blues clearly, but greens and reds read as muddy gray-yellow. From the seventeen PLA Matte colors we stock, five are optimised for dog vision: Lemon Yellow, Marine Blue, Ice Blue, Dark Blue, and Lilac Purple. Other colors are beautiful for your interior — pick those if the human aesthetic matters more than the canine one.
Can it go in the dishwasher?+
We recommend hand-washing with warm water (max 40°C) and mild soap. PLA is a plant-based material that can deform above ~50°C, so dishwashers, boiling water, ovens and hot radiators are all off the table. A quick rinse keeps it looking new.
Which size should I order?+
Small fits dogs up to 9 kg and most cats. Medium fits 9–27 kg — our most popular size. Large is sized for retrievers, shepherds, and bigger breeds. Unsure? Email us your dog's breed and weight before ordering — personalised pieces can't be exchanged once printed.
How long until my order arrives?+
We print to order, so allow 2–4 working days for production. After dispatch from Warsaw: 4–9 days for EU, 7–14 days for US, 8–23 days for the rest of the world. Express options are available at checkout for EU and US orders.
Do you offer engraving?+
Yes — every bowl stand is engraved with your dog's name: up to 14 characters, English letters. You enter the name on the product page before adding the stand to your bag. Engraving is included in the price.
