My dog tends to splash a lot of water out of the dog bowl, unless the splashes are deflected by the rim, in the event of a lower water level. I’m looking to find a DIY product that is somewhat ‘A’ shaped, and can be snapped onto the existing rim of the bowl.

I need key words or ideas for items I can search for and purchase. I’m looking for something rubber and flexible, sort of like the cable floor trip protectors or pipe insulators, but again ‘A’ shaped where the bottom can wrap around the rim itself.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I would just go to your local hardware store and walk the aisles.

You could fabricate something out of thermoplastic or metal, but I'd be concerned about it creating a crevice for mold to grow.
