 Not handy to use - buy the Gulpy pet dispenser insteadSep 18, 2007
By Casey
I have this pet water dispenser and I found it to be a nuisance while out in the park with my dog. In order to use it you have to un-clip the bottom, pull the water bottle out, push it into the top opening and then begin squeezing the water bottle to dispense the water. Also, the water comes out in very small increments. I used it twice and gave up.
I found the Gulpy pet water dispenser by New Angle to be far superior to the Handi-Drink version. You just pull up the water bottle and begin squeezing the bottle and your dog is drinking water in seconds. The water comes out much easier than the Handi-Drink and the Gulpy is far more convenient. I have never found the Gulpy pet water dispenser on Amazon but if you Google it you can find other places that sell it. I also just recently found it at my local REI store.
I have purchased several Gulpy's to keep in both cars and to give to friends. In my opinion, this one is far better than the Handi-Drink, if only for ease of use.
UPDATE: One thing I failed to mention in my original review is that the belt clip on the Gulpy is basically useless as it will not stay on a belt, especially with a bottle full of water. The Handi-Drink does come with a clip and "shoestring" type strap but with a bottle full of water I found it to be cumbersome and with it swinging while trying to walk just doesn't work for me. Hands down I still prefer the Gulpy and still use it all the time with my two dogs. You can also find the Gulpy on eBay.

Only in my dreams! Spill-proof dog water bottle...It doesn't work!Aug 06, 2007
By Marcia Manzello

Well, it looks really nice, inexpensive, sounds pretty good, is compact enough to throw in a backpack. Please advise, it leaks and made a big mess, I was extremely annoyed and disappointed. Therefore, if you plan to go for a walk, kill 2 birds with 1 shot, taking your toddlers, their bottles, snacks, little toys and your puppy at the same time; make sure to add an extra bottle of water, because that one only serves the purpose as a bowl.

 not that handiAug 19, 2008
By T. Page

I thought this would be great, but I was disappointed. It is NOT spill-proof; it leaks when you carry it in a bag. As mentioned by others it requires quite a bit of juggling to snap open, snap into place, then squeeze. Now I just fill a baggy with water at the water fountain in the park instead of using this.

didn't work outSep 12, 2008
By Chicago born
While the concept on this product is great, it didn't turn out to be what I expected. It was bulky to carry around. I had a terrible time trying to take it apart to be able to use it, and it constantly was leaking.

Not as good as the Gulpy water dispenserFeb 25, 2009
By Michelle
A good friend got a different dog water dispenser (the Gulpy) as a gift and would bring it with us on long hikes with the dogs. I bought this dispenser at Petco, after seeing her Gulpy, thinking it was similar enough. I was wrong. To use the Gulpy, my friend simply flips it open, squeezes the water out for her dog, then flips it back closed. To use this dispenser, you have to unclip the water bottle, insert it into the dispensing end, dispense the water, then unclip the bottle from the dispensing end and place it back in its original position for carrying. It doesn't seem that difficult, but it's really a pain when you just want to give your dog a quick drink, AND you have to make sure both of your hands aren't full b/c you will need both of them for this dispenser every time you use it. The one advantage of this one over the Gulpy is that is has a carrying strap instead of just a belt clip, which I like. However, I'll still be buying the Gulpy just for the ease of use and perhaps using the carrying strap from this dispenser on the Gulpy!
