tonibun, I used to have an elderly bunny with a dewlap that would hang in to the water bowl...however I found a solution.:thumb:
I bought a set of the adjustable height dog bowls. The ones that sit inside an adjustable height frame. Over time, Barnaby my dear old bunny had his bowls almost level with his head as this made it so much easier for him to eat and drink.
I'm sure that most pet shops sell them, usually in the cat/dog section.
Best of luck.
