Yes some dogs can have an allergic reaction to plastic bowls. Usually it's not the bowl that causes this. It's the bacteria that gets into the tiny cracks and pores of the plastic. Dogs can end up with allergy reactions and can also end up with bacterial infections in the skin. This is why it's better to use a stainless steel bowl for both water and food.
