28oz Crossbody Dog Water Bottle with Collapsible Bowl

The weather is finally warming up, so it’s time to take Alpha out for some hikes. I got him this water bottle specifically to keep him hydrated on the trail. It’s really easy to carry and fits perfectly in Alpha’s backpack. Makes our outdoor adventures so much smoother!

Bottle worked well, didn’t leak on today’s kayak adventure. I added a little chicken broth to the water for flavor, and to encourage my dog to drink. The bowl was the perfect size for his little Shih Tzu face.

What a cute little bottle! I love it. I’ve had several different kinds of dog water bottles and this is by far the best one. Another one I had was a bottle with the bowl as the cap, but the bowl was plastic and it simply had a hole and a little stopper flap to close the hole when not in use. But there was no strap on that one so it made it really inconvenient to take with me on walks unless I brought a bag to carry it in. And it leaked ALL the time! So this one is great in comparison! First of all, it holds more water. It has a strap! AND it has a keychain! So I can technically clip it to my belt loop OR I can attach it to her leash which is what I did in the pictures I’ve attached. A few things to note, it’s not easy to do one-handed. I find it difficult to pull up the bowl with one hand while I also hold her leash, but that’s really not a big deal. The silicone is sturdy enough to hold the water without worrying about it flapping back down. And the little knob to open and close the water is easy enough to use. But my dog did NOT like the noise the bottle makes when the water is draining. Since you have to squeeze the bottle to fill the bowl, it makes a funny sound when the bottle is filling back up with the water and subsequent air.... kind of like a screeching sound like the sound a balloon makes when you’re letting air out of it. So it scared my dog at first. I’m going to try and train her to drink from it again because after that, she kind of cowered away from it and I couldn’t get her to use it again. So just keep that in mind when you use this. Maybe wait to drain the water until after your dog is done drinking (unlike what I did lol!). Overall, I would absolutely recommend this and it’s a cute little bottle.

I really like this product when I take my dog to the beach for a walk. Easy to use. The cup that holds the water could be a little larger. If taken on an airplane release the valve slowly since your cabin altitude is around 6,000 ft above ground level. If you open quickly water will spray out do to the expansion of the bottle. No big deal but something to consider. It could hold a few more ounces of water but it's compactness would definitely be affected by this. It's easy to fill and seems to be quality built.

Overall, good buy and I like the way it works. like that you don't have to screw off a lid or top of any kind. I'll be interested to see how long the red button keeps working that lets the water in and out.
