Can the Kennel Bowl be left on permanently?

We designed the Kennel Bowl mounting bracket, so that the product can be easily removed when not in use. We always recommend removing the bowl from the kennel when not in use, in order to discourage teeth on the product, as well as to ensure the safety of your dog during travel. However, if desired the Kennel Bowl can technically be left on the inside of the kennel door on a more permanent basis.
