If you're truly one of those people who treat your pet like a family member, then you may want to consider getting your household companion a Ken Decost wooden elevated feeder. With its fine carpentry and stunning aesthetics, I may even consider feeding human house guests out of it.

Ken Decost is the craftsman behind these swanky [pooch bowl holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trot-pets-1). He pairs two varieties of wood for each raised feeder he builds, which explains the attractive two-tone designs you're currently looking at. His feeders come in varieties of Birch with Mahogany or Maple and Walnut.

Ken Decost actually stumbled into the [elevated dog feeder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elevated-complete) manufacturing business. He created one for his dog Preston after winning a contest and, due to overwhelmingly positive responses from the public, is now in the business of selling these finely crafted [pet accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biting-edge).
