Product Description
Our Glass Feeding Bottles with Bottom Air Vent are originally designed for human infant feeding but may also be used for supplementary bottle feeding of puppies.
Made from high-quality borosilicate glass, each bottle features a bottom air vent that allows replacement air to enter as milk is consumed. This helps prevent vacuum build-up, maintain a consistent milk flow and reduce the likelihood of the silicone teat collapsing inwards during suckling.
Available in 120mL and 160mL capacities, these wide-neck bottles include a soft, highly elastic food-grade silicone teat, durable PPSU components, a bottle base, spare bottom air vent and silicone valve cleaning pin.

Benefits
- Bottom Air Vent and Vacuum Prevention
The bottom air vent allows air to enter the bottle as the puppy suckles, helping balance internal pressure and maintain milk flow. This reduces the likelihood of the teat collapsing inwards due to vacuum build-up.
- Soft Silicone Feeding Teat
Made from high-quality food-grade silicone, the teat is soft, flexible and highly elastic to accommodate suckling movements.
- Durable and Easy to Clean
The borosilicate glass bottle offers good resistance to temperature changes, while the wide-neck design makes filling and cleaning easier.

Bottom Air Vent Maintenance
Periodically check the bottom silicone air return valve during feeding to ensure it remains clear and functioning correctly.
If the valve becomes blocked or sticks together, a vacuum may develop inside the bottle, making milk difficult to draw through the teat and potentially causing the teat to collapse inwards.
Cleaning and Sterilisation
Before First Use
1. Disassemble the bottle and thoroughly wash all components in warm water with mild dishwashing detergent.
2. Rinse thoroughly, paying particular attention to the teat and bottom air vent.
3. Disinfect ONLY the glass bottle and silicone teat by boiling in water for 5 minutes.
4. Keep the glass bottle and teat from touching the sides or bottom of the pot during boiling.
5. Carefully remove, allow to cool and air dry before reassembling.
Do not boil the bottle base, PPSU fittings or bottom air vent components. Clean these separately in warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.
After Each Use
Disassemble and thoroughly wash all components, ensuring the bottom air vent is free from milk residue. Rinse and allow to dry completely before storage or reassembly.
Additional Information
This bottle was originally designed for human infants. When using it for puppies, ensure the teat size and milk flow are appropriate for the animal's age, size and suckling ability.
Check all components for correct assembly, leaks and damage before feeding. Never squeeze the bottle or force milk into the mouth, as this may cause aspiration (milk entering the lungs).
If feeding difficulties persist after checking the teat and air vent, seek veterinary advice. Replace worn or damaged components before further use.
