Here at DogTime, we’re all about sustainability. Dogs have the potential to create a lot of waste, but there are actions you can take to reduce your pup’s carbon pawprint.
Getting a reusable water bottle for your dog is an easy way to minimize waste. You’ll be keeping plastic out of landfills while you keep your pooch hydrated!
Not only are reusable water bottles better for the environment, but they’re also safer for your dog. That’s right! You can keep your dog safe while being eco-friendly.
Better For The Environment, Safer For Your Dog
Bringing your own water supply for your pooch will help them stay hydrated, and it’s safer than relying on other sources of water that you might find on your adventures.
It’s not unheard of for dogs to be accidentally or purposefully poisoned at the dog park. Bringing water for your dog to the park ensures that you don’t expose your dog to these risks.
Communal water bowls that you might see at shopping malls and other public dog-friendly places can also be risky. Carrying your pup’s water at hand is much safer and cleaner than allowing them to drink from public bowls.
What Kind Of Reusable Water Bottles Should You Use?
Any bottle can be reusable. Still, there are some that are more conducive to taking your dog on walks and to the park.
Here are our top three reusable dog water bottles for keeping your dog hydrated.
Kong H20 K9 Unit
The Kong H20 K9 Unit looks not unlike a reusable water bottle for humans. The only difference is the detachable, bowl-like lid.
It’s a little clunkier than other dog water bottles, but it definitely gets the job done.
If you need a bottle that can withstand some banging up, Kong H20 K9 Unit is a good option.
Springer Travel Bottle
The Springer Travel Bottle comes in three different sizes: mini, classic, and growler. Water goes in the main chamber and is squeezed into the bowl on top when it’s time to drink.
This bottle also comes in several colors.
PETKIT Water Bottle
The PETKIT Water Bottle has a convenient sloped lid that doubles as a bowl. There is no disassembly required, as the water flows directly into the lid from the bottle at the touch of a button.
It also has a sleek design and can fit into backpacks easily.
