My dog is not a messy eater but water dribbles from his fur all over the floor when he is done drinking. Will this help with that problem?

I'm not sure. The apron around the feeder is not terribly wide. If you dog has long fur, I suspect that you will still have water on the floor.

I bought it because my dogs holds water in her mouth and dribbles it all over the floor as well. I would say this cuts about 80% of the dribble. I love it!

No, my dog does this too, and he leaves a trail of water after he is done drinking. Although, because of the position he now drinks at due to the feeder I do think it has helped a bit.

Honestly, no. It helps contain the mess and spilled water but our Newfoundland still dribbles water across the floor.

I have this for my German Shepherd. It contains some of the water. To answer your question ~ no, it will not. My dog still slobbers water on the floor after she drinks.

I use this because my dog makes a mess while she drinks. She has short hair so the water doesn't cling to her fur

If you disassembled it to clean in up, make sure the nozzle is screwed all the way. Also check the how high the bottle is: the dog should not be pulling it up or down while drinking. These were the two leaking problems I observed.Also, if this is a first this kind of bottle your dog used, it would take some time to adjust to.

Katharine, I have a Boxer/Lab (80+ lbs) & I fill his water 2 x's a day & his food only once. They're plenty big. HOWEVER, I wud recommend putting a coat of laquer on top because the water is destroying it

I would think that as long as you get the appropriate size bowl, the projections inside the bowl would help with that as well. The projections inside the bowl prevent the dog from sticking his whole snout inside the bowl, and that would work for water too as long as the bowl was the proper size for the size of the dog-notice that the bowl does come in different sizes.

I think your dog would enjoy this one. Even more if your dog loves water. My 2 puppies love this and even more today because of the snow outside. I would give it a try and if he turns his face away maybe put a little bit of peanut butter under it. Good luck!

Yes it is I got this for my messy cat wish it was higher he gets water all over the place much goes down the holes but he still get water on the floor. My cat moves it around so you might want to keep and eye on your puppy.

It moves a trickle down the spout, like what is shown in the picture. It's enough for a dog or cat to lap up. For bigger dogs or dogs that are really thirsty, they can drink out of the bowl, too. I would say the trickle is about what you'd use when leaving a hose on a tree during a dry-spell -- nice and slow.Oh, and I haven't had any problems with the motors on either of the two fountains I have from Drinkwell, and I've had them for several years now.

Most likely not. I have four dogs, and my most recent addition (a sloppy drinking English bulldog) makes a complete mess during and after drinking from this bowl. He loves the bowl and water, but I need to put a larger mat under it because water goes everywhere when he's around. Don't have this problem with the other dogs.

I have two cats, and some water spills out whenever they drink from the bowl. I put a plastic placement under the bowl.

If your dog is eating too fast then throwing up the food just add water to it and it will slow them down enough to fix the problem. Our dog did this too, but the water fixed the problem.

Gosh, I haven't tried that. It may help if you use a smaller size than the dog needs for food. Is the gulping a problem after exercise or all the time? If it causes regurgitation you may want to just give a little at a time. Excess thirst can be a sign of health issues so it might be best to talk to your Vet first. Sometimes dogs just drink like blenders and are not actually getting as much as the noise and dribbles indicate.Good luck!

Unfortunately, no. My dog has the same problem. It is pretty easy to clean though.

The water does filter, however not 100% sure about the slobber. None of my dogs are slobbery.

The reservoir is easy to tip over by a pet if it is not full. If tipped slightly, the entire contents will flood into your bowl and then overflow onto your floor. If you are certain their are no holes or cracks in your reservoir, try filling it to the top before going to bed.

Probably just soap and water and let it sit for a while. I've not had any issues with the floor it cleans well. You could also try taking it outside and hosing it off. My yorkie loves his "condo".

I have used it with 8 different dogs- no splashing or playing, but doesn't stop chin dripping. Originally purchased for a Aussie who stepped in water bowls more than drank from

I would suggest to give your pet a bath then at the end of the bath spay some on the pet then add water to delude it on the fur then towel try/ blow dry.
