Dripless Water Bowl, Anti gulping, Spill Proof, no Skid, no Mess - Great for Dogs or Cats (Small or Large Breeds up to 100 lbs) - only Holds 24oz of Water to Keep Water Fresh

We have two dogs. A chiweenie who doesnt have a problem drinking water and a 2 yr old Ridgeback who has a drinking problem. As i like to say he tends to want to take some in reserve for later after he drinks but he doesnt know how to keep it in the reserve tank. When we moved into our new house that had hardwood floors it was quite the exercise to constantly mop up water trails as he would leave the bowl. A solution had to be tried.The first day we got it. The little one didnt have a problem figuring it out but the big ridgeback wasnt quite sure because he couldnt see the water. After a few trips by the little guy the big guy gave it a shot. it worked perfectly. He was able to drink it without any problems and there was no water trail a detective could follow to the scene of the crime. Now there are only a handful of times that we will find a few drops after he drinks, but that is mostly when the bowl is completely full.It is an easy setup. You just fill the bowl up with water and the white area has an arena like inverse dome to it with a hole in the middle. When you fill up the water it raises to the top and fills the white container as the dogs go to drink they apply light pressure to the white container and water starts to come up through the center hole.I just wish it was bigger so i didnt have to fill it up so often. Two dogs go through it pretty quick.

Bought this strictly to use as a water bowl. My Springer has always been a very sloppy drinker who gets more water on the floor than in his mouth. He's getting older and having GI issues so my intention of purchasing this was to slow down his drinking so he did not swallow so much air (which causes upset tummy from gas). This bowl did exactly what I had hoped in addition to keeping my hardwood floors dry. Also nice that it fits perfectly on top of the existing raised feeder platform. Highly recommend this product.Update: 10/19/2018. I received a hand written “thank you” card from the family who own this business. ❤️I have bought a second less-mess bowl so both dogs have their own. THIS IS THE GREATEST WATER BOWL!!! It has saved my hard wood floors. We recently adopted a GSD/Husky/Pit Bull and he’s tried eating the bowls. There’s just a few teeth marks. It’s still functioning well. I highly recommend this product...even for dogs that are chewers.

I've had the bowl for a little over a month. For the first day or so, it worked perfectly. My giant schnauzer tends to leave a trail of water behind as she walks away from her bowl, due to her dunking her beard in the bowl. This bowl prevented that for a very short period. My dog figured out that if she pushes her muzzle down a little harder, she's be able to get water more easily. I think this would work great for a dog that isn't much of a puzzle solver. Unfortunately this just isn't the case with my girl. I can say that it does help with the immediate mess around the bowl while she is drinking. Normally she would get water all over the floor while drinking. I do feel that this bowl minimizes that quite a bit.

Dosent work. The bowl dosent attach to the base so it just spins around on the base. The floating plastic piece has taught my puppy to play in the water spilling water so bad on my hardwood floors that the floor has swelled. She plays with the floating plastic piece because it isn't attached. I fell and hurt my knee and elbow because there was water all over. I only filled it 2/3 of the way as directed. Will be returning this product. If the plastic piece was secured in a way that it moved up and down it would be a way better product. Also my puppy knocked over the bowl from playing that she tipped it because the bowl Is not attached to the base. Once water gets on the floor the bowl moves everywhere. It is not a non slip bowl.

The bowl I received had a very bad smell, as mentioned in a couple of other reviews. I contacted the owners by email and received a brief response. Despite their asking if there was anything they could do to make my experience better, their email gave me the impression they were claiming that they hadn't had anyone mention a problem with a bad odor. I wrote my initial review, earlier today, based on that interpretation. It is a Sunday, and I received a call from one of the owners after posting my review. He wanted to discuss the product because he could tell from my review that I was very unhappy with their product. During that discussion, he asked if the bowl was packaged in a bag and then placed in the box, which it was. He explained that indicates it was a bowl sent to Amazon prior to the change they made to resolve the issue with the smell. He clarified his email response for me - he hadn't had anyone mention the smell since the change in their manufacturing process. He was obviously very concerned about my satisfaction, and volunteered to send me a new bowl.The bowl sounds great in theory and with some design changes could be a 5 star product if it really did cut down on the water I have to clean up each time my sloppy dog drinks. I'm looking forward to receiving the replacement bowl so I can find out. The owner explained that one of the design changes I mentioned in my earlier review, the small plug in the side of the white disk which allowed water to enter the disk, was so you could fill the disk with water and freeze it, making the water colder for your pet. They reacted to a concern about not being able to easily remove any water that was in the disk from someone who purchased the bowl, and future bowls will not have a plug.I also thought the black plastic base seemed chintzy and ill-fitting. There is a circular rim on the top side of the base and two circular rims on the bottom of the bowl. The bowl moves around quite a bit on the base and seems a little hard to get balanced on it, so I thought maybe they were supposed to snap together. According to the owner's email response they aren't. With the bowl being wobbly, I was worried that if my dog knocked it loose I could have an even worse water spill, and if it came completely off the base I'd have the risk of the rough edges on the bottom edge of the bowl scratching my just-installed laminate floor. Maybe if the rims were a little longer? taller? it would make it more steady, or possibly if there was less space between the two rims on the bowl it wouldn't wobble so much.My review has been upgraded to a two-star review, and I am hoping to need to edit the review again and give more stars after I receive and try the replacement. Customer service is very important to me and this owner has proven to be very concerned with customer satisfaction. He called to discuss this by phone, offered to send a replacement and never once asked me to change my review. Combined with finding out that they have made changes in the past based on customer recommendations, and that a future change will also be made based on customer recommendations, I am very impressed with their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.Update after receiving a replacement:My review has been upgraded to 4 stars after receiving a replacement.I just received the replacement bowl. While there are a few things that I think could be changed to make the bowl even better, the bowl is definitely helping the problem of my dog dripping water all over my new floor.If you order this bowl, and get a bowl that is packaged in a clear plastic bag inside the box, it is an older version of the bowl made before the seller changed the manufacturing process to resolve an issue with some of the bowls having a very strong, unpleasant smell. Amazon shipped me one of the older bowls, the bowl had what another reviewer referred to as a toxic smell, and my initial rating was very low.After the seller contacted me to discuss my earlier review and see if there was anything they could do to make my experience better, I was sent a new bowl. It came boxed without the plastic bag and did not have the strong unpleasant odor the first bowl had. My Australian shepherd/border collie mix adapted to the bowl very quickly and was soon licking the water instead of gulping it like she usually did. And each time she has used the bowl I notice little or no water on my floor instead of her dripping water through the kitchen and into the living room. I’ve even noticed two of my three cats drinking from the bowl. This is good news, as one of those cats usually dips his paw in the water bowl and then licks the water off his foot leaving anything that had been on the bottom of his foot floating in the bowl.In addition to showing obvious concern for customer satisfaction once the bowl has been received, the seller has also changed the manufacturing process at least twice based on customer comments. I’m hoping at some point in time the blue bowl will have a flat rim on its bottom that would be wide enough to use self-stick felt on the bottom of the bowl and not use the black non-scratch base, which I find ill-fitting. It looks like making the circular rim on the black base longer, and the two circular rims on the bottom of the bowl longer and closer together might stop some of the wobbly feel when the blue bowl is sitting on the black plastic base. And while I’m guessing having cutouts on two sides of the bowl is to allow both right-handed and left-handed individuals to more easily pick up the bowl, I noticed that my dog seemed to think they were there for her to use to pick up the bowl in her teeth. Having only one cutout would make it easier to have the cutout turned away from the dog. I’m glad the seller insisted on sending me a new bowl. I had been really curious to see if the style of this bowl would help the dripping water problem, but I was afraid to give my dog water out of the smelly bowl. It’s great to find out that it does cut down on the dripping water tremendously.I’m now rating this 4 stars because the product really works. And I really appreciate the obvious concern the seller had for my satisfaction!
