How does the Artie Feeding Systemโข work?
Fill the water reservoir, insert your dogโs pre-portioned Artie meal, then press the button.

Once complete, simply stir and serve.

The Artie Feeding Systemโข measures 10.0โ wide, 11.5โ deep, and 12.0โ high, with a footprint similar to a traditional coffee maker.

What colors does the system come in?
The Artie Feeding Systemโข is currently available in four colors: Black, White, Red, and Teal.
How can I be sure the system is safe for use in my home?
The Artie Feeding Systemโข has been designed and manufactured to comply with strict safety standards established by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Each system has been carefully tested to meet or exceed safety standards intended for safe use in your home.
