Hi everyone, I have a question for you guys, I had a family member over the other evening, and I was loading my dishwasher after dinner, I run my dishwasher at night when I go to bed, and then the dishes are done and dry in the morning. After I feed Dozer and Blossom in the morning, I always rinse out their stainless steel bowls with hot water, and then dry them out with a paper towel, I never use my dish cloth just paper towel, then I place them on top of the dog food bins for their evening meal. After they have eaten at night, I again rinse out the bowls with hot water and then place them in my dishwasher. They get washed with my dishes overnight, and then I take them out in the morning and give them their breakfast. My family member was totally grossed out, and told me it was disgusting that I put my dog bowls in the dishwasher. I told her that the dishes get washed in boiling water, and they also go through a very hot drying cycle, where I can't even touch the dishes until they've cooled down, so they are disinfected. She didn't agree with me, and said it was gross. Does anyone else wash their dog bowls in the dishwasher? Or does anyone else think this is gross? I was wondering what others opinions were. How do others wash their dog bowls?
