Lixit Large Mouth Water Bottles for Massive and Small Canine (16oz Small Canine, White)

Works great!
I’ve had absolutely no problems with this bottle leaking (as others have) as long as I fill it completely up and create a seal by turning it right side down after filling the bottle and letting any air bubbles rise to the top, and then tapping the ball a few times. It usually drips maybe five times and then stops. The very first time I filled it, it did drip quite a few times more and I was worried, but since then it’s not dripped at all after the initial couple drips. There are more detailed instructions on how to use it on the Lixit website, also.It did take my dog about a week or so to start using the water bottle. We put peanut butter on the spout to entice her. It took a couple times, but now she uses it while she is in her kennel during the day, quite often.The 16 ounce bottle is the perfect size for our 15 pound miniature schnauzer. She goes through about a quarter of the water this bottle holds during her time in her kennel while we are at work. She even will use the water bottle even if she doesn’t need to be in her kennel sometimes. It must “taste different” or be “better water” than the water in her bowl. Ha!I would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone.

At first it leaked, but their awesome customer service helped me out!
I got this bottle to attach to my dog’s crate so that she could have water when we’re not home. Unfortunately, it’s designed for wire crates, so we had to ziptie the fasteners to the side of her sturdy metal crate. That worked just fine, so we mounted the water bottle… and unfortunately it leaked immediately. I called Lixit customer service, and they walked me through troubleshooting steps, and now it doesn’t leak! You have to hold it upside-down after filling, squeeze to release a little water, then attach it to the crate.

Great Idea, but keaks and is difficult to use.
I bought this because my dog would be in his kennel for hours at a time while my wife and I were gone, and I wanted him to be able to have water to drink.Overall, it’s a good concept. You vacuum seal the nozzle with two balls that allow the dog to lick the nozzle and let water out. However, the execution on this product is just okay. I found that it leaked more frequently than we wanted. Also, our dog didn’t seem to use it much. He would lick it and I saw him try to drink out of it, but our dog (a fairly large Great Dane) didn’t seem to get enough water to enjoy it.The biggest complaint I have with the product is how much it leaks. It is difficult to fill up, with the screwed on part of the nozzle seemingly not having enough thread, so it was a pain to screw on that part. And then once you screw on that part and turn it over, the vacuum seal was not strong enough and water would drip out of it. I spent quite a long time trying to get the seal to stay so that it would not leak, as we did not want water leaking all over my dog’s kennel. I watched YouTube videos and tutorials on how to properly fill it and flip it over so that it wouldn’t leak. It’s a very frustrating process. And then, once I was able to successfully turn the water bottle upside down so that it didn’t leak, it would spill and make a mess when attaching it to the kennel. There are two metal pieces that are used to balance this water bottle and attach it to the cage part of the dog’s kennel. Personally, I didn’t think that the way it is designed is efficient. It truly feels like the water bottle is just balancing along the cage, and because of this, every time we would try to attach it, it was difficult to get it to balance, and then water would spill.I was able to successfully attach it to the cage a handful of times, but again, my dog’s preference just isn’t to drink out of it, so it was mostly unused. Lately we’ve been letting our dog out in the house while we are gone, so he has access to his water bowl, and we don’t even use the water bottle.Overall, it’s a good concept. The execution could be better, with how it attaches to a kennel and how the vacuum seals the water. If you can get the vacuum sealed, get it attached to the kennel without leaking, and your dog likes to drink out of it, then it would be a great product. Unfortunately those things didn’t happen for me.

Muy funcional, aunque necesitas leer bien y un poco de maña para evitar que gotee
