Take a Portable Dog Water Bottle on that Next Hike!
If you love taking your dog for long walks and hikes, then you know how thirsty you get, so what about your dog? I have seen many people pouring their own bottled water into their hands for their dogs, or simply letting them drink out of puddles and ponds, but there is a simpler way for your dog to get a drink.
As you can see in the above picture, this is a portable water bottle with an attached trough that folds down for your dog to drink comfortably. It will not spill and you have control over how much water goes into the portable trough or bowl. Most dogs don't feel comfortable drinking from your hands or being squirted with a water bottle, they like to lap at a dish.
These can be carried with you on your walks, and even have a clip to attach to your belt or your knapsack. Dogs need to stay hydrated, especially on long walks, so be prepared with their own automatic portable water bottles and keep your best friend happy and healthy.
You can get these at many pet supply stores, but you can also get a huge assortment of them on sites such as Amazon. Just click the above picture or link below the picture and you can get more information about this particular product or go surfing for others!
This has got to be one the simplest ways to give your dog a drink, without having to carry bowls or other accessories. They can be stored with your own water bottles and when you stop for a drink break, simply flip down the trough and squeeze the bottle and let your dog get a cool drink. Almost like having their very own auto dog water fountain.
So next time you decide to head out on that hike, don't forget to include your dog's water bottle as well as your own.
