Automatic Water Fountain Quenches the Thirst of Man’s Best Friend

• Water dispenses when the sensor detects the pet
• Sensor has a 3 foot detection range
• Automatically shuts off water flow when pet walks away
• Weatherproof design
• Adjustable height to suit small, medium and large pets

If you’re a dog lover, or just an animal lover in general, the WaterDog WAT002 Pet Drinking Fountain is a must, especially if your tail-wagging best friend usually remains within the confines of your backyard. Water is essential for survival…for you…for me…and for your beloved dog. Depending on the day’s weather, the average healthy dog will drink roughly one oz. of water per pound of body weight. That can really add up to a lot of water and a lot of having to monitor and fill up the trusty ol’ water bowl. Instead, let the Pet Drinking Fountain do all that work for you. All your dog has to do is walk up to one of your home’s outside water faucets (which this device attaches to) thus triggering the onboard sensor (begins working roughly three feet away) which then automatically begins to dispense water allowing your dog to quench its thirst. It’s essentially water on demand for your dog! No more having to constantly refill the water bowl. It’s clean, healthy, and unlike your standard bowl, isn’t filled with old-standing water filled with dog-slobber-backwash…food remnants…hair…and well….I’ll leave the rest up to your imagination. It’s an efficient technological solution fit for modern times! Your dog is your best friend and it deserves only the best. This simple solution from WaterDog will keep the both of you happy.
