Good for Spaniels!,

This is a really good item for dogs with long floppy ears... it keeps the ears out of the water. Also, it's good in the car for those road trips... keeps the water from splashing out.

Brilliant design and truly spill proof - unfortunately it's not chew proof!,

This review is from: The Orginal Buddy Bowl 1/2 Gal (Misc.)
Before I go into why this product didn't work for me, I will say that despite my skepticism this truly is a "spill proof" design. It's bigger than it looks in the picture and it holds a LOT of water. I found the 2 (actually 3) pieces to be not difficult at all to separate, in fact they snap together perfectly and easily (tho you may have trouble if you're older or have arthritis). So my first impressions were that this was a great product.I purchased this because I leave my 9 month old German Shepherd, Xindra, in a crate at home while I'm at work. Xindra's a pretty well behaved dog and doesn't chew much, but she does have a habit of getting a little antsy while she's left home alone. She chewed up a blanket I left in her crate and turned her regular bowl upside down spilling water everywhere when I left it in her crate with her. I thought the buddy bowl would be the perfect spill-proof bowl to leave in her crate with her. Well, the day I recieved this product I came home for a late lunch to let her out and I showed her the bowl, she seemed to like it and figured out how to drink through the narrow opening almost immediately. So I left it in her crate with her upon my departure, thinking I'd found the perfect solution. That was about 2pm today. When I came home from work at 5pm, there was water all over the crate and all over Xindra! I couldn't believe my eyes! I picked up the bowl and she had chewed through it! After only 3 hours alone with Xindra, my buddy bowl looks as if it's been through a war zone - it's punctured in four or five places, the little handle type thing on the side is totally ripped up, and it leaks water all over the place. In summary, this is a brilliant idea and a brilliant spill-proof design, but it needs to be made out of a stronger material to stand up to dog's who chew. It only lasted my dog 3 hours, and she isn't even that bad of a chewer (I've been leaving a red Kong with peanut butter in it in her crate with her every day for 2 weeks and she hasn't done any discernable damage to it). I would imagine the exact same design made out of stainless steel (possibly encased with a rubber material) would have worked perfectly. I would note this would still be a great product for situations in which I can observe my dog, such as in the car. But if you plan to leave your dog alone with it, my recommendation would be to only buy this product if your dog isn't a chewer. Finally, if anyone knows of another version of the Buddy Bowl with a more chew proof material (a stainless steel version), please let me know in the comments section as I'd definately be interested in it. Alas, I've searched for such a product and can't find it.

As the mother of a toddler who loves to dump the dog water all over the kitchen floor and herself, I LOVE THIS!!!!!! It really does not spill!!!! No more wet floors, slipping and sliding, etc. This product is a life saver and a wonder.
