Product Overview and Summary

No more empty or dirty water bowls! Make sure your dog drinks only fresh, clean water. As soon as your dog approaches the WaterDog, it dispenses a stream of fresh, cool water. When your dog leaves, the water turns off automatically. You'll never have to worry about what your dog has been drinking again! For a healthier, happier dog - and for your own piece of mind - choose the WaterDog!

Customer Experience and Opinions

 More than a water dispenser, August 11 ,2010
mgs informs us that:
I have 2 dogs, over 100 lbs. each. Training took no time, they were more curious about it than afraid.
Having an automatic water dispenser such as this is quite invaluable.
We used to fill up buckets of water and leave them in the back yard, but that's a bad solution:
- Water gets hot and dogs don't drink it -- they would storm the water hose whenever I'd get home just to get some cold water
- Water stays in the bucket, and if it's plastic then you get a slow release of toxins into their water
- Water is still - and you get mosquito eggs causing heart worms
- Water gets dirty because the dogs get dirt on their faces, then in the water, then drink it.

Obviously with an automatic water dispenser that's connected to a hose and turns on only when the dog is near none of the issues above exist.

We didn't install the Water Dog as recommended - instead of connecting to the spicket we ran a hose under the back deck and then zip-tied WaterDog to a post. This way it's in the shade :)

Love the product.
Could be cheaper.
Still worth it.

 Best gadget for my dogs, August 06 ,2010
savvygift tells us:
Best gadget for my dogs. No more worries about contaminated water especially in the hot summer. Our dogs stay healthy and happy. Even friends and visitors find this gadget amazing! We would highly recommend this product.

 wish it were sturdier, July 19 ,2010
Mitzi H Walters says:
The concept is excellent and it does exactly what they claim. My dogs did not need any training to figure it out. I wish it were sturdier. The dogs lick from it and it rotates and quits working. I had to wire it in place so that it wouldn't do that. I would love to see a larger sturdier model for mastiffs.

The funny thing is that the birds in my yard have also figured out how to set it off.

Product Overview and Summary

The Drink Better¿ pet bowl encourages dogs to drink at a slower, healthier rate, and make less mess while they¿re at it. Many dogs instinctively drink too fast. Besides making a wet mess, this habit can contribute to digestive problems such as indigestion and vomiting, and light-haired dogs may experience staining of the muzzle (from chlorinated water). The Drink Better bowl uses a floating obstacle to control the flow of water, encouraging dogs to drink slower and take only as much as they need, without soaking their ears and muzzles or slopping water around the feeding area.

Customer Experience and Opinions

 Works great if used as directred, June 18 ,2010
Xena's Mom (NC United States) tells us:
I find that this bowl works great. If the float is sinking to the bottom, as some have said, there is either too much water in the float or it has a leak and it fills with water. You can adjust the amount of water coming through the holes in the float by adding to or emptying water from it. It is trial and error until you get the correct amount of water in it. I have small dogs and it keeps them from gulping water too fast and then throwing up. I am going to get another one because it works so well. I don't think it would work as well for a large breed dog.

 Doesn't Prevent Drips, April 21 ,2010
Sasha says:
I SO wanted this dog bowl to work. My dog apparently drinks by dunking her nose in the water because after she's done, she walks around the house dripping water everywhere making mini puddles. I was hopeful that this bowl would stop all that but it hasn't helped at all, not a bit. So now I have an expensive water bowl and I still have to walk after my dog with a towel to wipe up her drips.

Donna Blumrick (AUBURN, NEW YORK, US) reveals that:
The concept is a great idea, but need to make it in a larger size.

Product Overview and Summary

The Eat Better¿ pet bowl encourages dogs to eat at a slower, healthier rate. Many dogs instinctively eat too fast; a habit that can contribute to digestive problems such as indigestion, vomiting and even GDV (gastric dilatation-volvulus) or ¿bloat¿ ¿ a life-threatening condition requiring emergency treatment. To help promote healthier eating habits, the Eat Better bowl incorporates a raised wishbone-shaped partition that provides easy access to food, but prevents dogs from eating too quickly. The bowl¿s innovative design encourages dogs to eat slower, take smaller mouthfuls, chew more, and avoid overeating.

Customer Experience and Opinions

 Contech EatBetter Medium Bowl- Excellent!, July 01 ,2010
Connie says that:
This is the 2nd Contech EatBetter Bowl that I have purchased. We now have a blue bowl and a pink bowl. This bowl definitely slows down our two puppies, a miniature schnauzer and a fox terrier (wire). It is the perfect size for the smaller breed dogs. Also, these bowls are heavy and well made and stay put on a mat. The notch on the bottom of the bowl makes it easier to pick up. Great product!

 Not happy..., February 06 ,2010
Judithe L. Koutnik (Tampa, Florida United States) believes that:
I think the 'concept' is wonderful...however, for a 14# Shih-Tzu that 'inhales' his food...this is not working very well. I still have to give him tiny 'portions' to slow him down. I do believe the sections are too large for a smaller dog. I happened to leave the bowl down after he was finished eating one day and he chewed all three raised sections....so....the bowl is now ruined and useless to him....and to me. Wasted money on this one...sorry folks.

 Contech EatBetter Bowl, June 21 ,2009
T. Almeida thinks:
My Dog has been using this bowl about one month now and it has indeed slowed his eating pace.
This bowl stays put on a mat and does not move around the floor.
It washes easy and is good for short muzzeled dogs.
I do recommend this bowl.
