Choco Nose Patented No-Drip Water Bottle/Feeder for Puppies/Toy-Small Breed Dogs/Rabbits/Cats/Chinchillas and Other Small Pets and Animals - for Cages or Crates 10.2 oz. Nozzle 13mm, Aqua (C528)

I am not one to write reviews but I definitely wanted to for this product. Years ago we were told to train our Shih Tzu puppies using a no drip water bottle on the side of their crate which we did. They never messed up all the fur under their mouths which helps with odor and cleanliness. We recently got a new Shih Tzu puppy and I wanted to do the same thing. I purchased 2 other bottles and had to return both. Thank goodness the 3rd time was the charm! This one is fantastic!! It doesn’t drip, it is easy for the puppy to reach as it is totally adjustable and there is a good amount of water that comes out so as not to discourage the puppy and allows him to get enough to drink. I actually bought another one that I can take with us when we go somewhere with him!I wouldn’t hesitate for one moment to purchase this!!

I had another hanging water bottle that constantly dripped, requiring me to place a small towel under it to collect the water. It worked fine when my dog went to use it, but the constant dripping was a real annoyance. I found this bottle after doing some research, and decided to give it a try. This was exactly what I needed!First off, the mechanism to hook the bottle onto a pen is much better than annoying springs with other bottles. The Choco Nose fits snuggly and doesn't shift around while my dog is licking. It's also pretty easy to remove if it needs to be relocated or packed up for a trip.Second, as already mentioned, the dripping is far far less. It can still have an occasional drip, but I more chalk that up to my dog's aggressive licking more than the bottle itself.Third, if the bottle sits unused for a while, the ball can get slightly stuck/jammed, so your pet may need to lick it a few times to get it rolling again, or I will sometimes bump it to get it going.Overall, this is dramatically better than the other hanging bottle I used. My dog loves it, and I appreciate no more drips.

I ultimately ended up returning this item as it simply doesn't provide enough water flow for a small dog...perhaps it would be okay for tea-cup breeds, but I have a small Maltese-Bichon breed, and again, just not enough water flow to provide water for throughout the day while he is in his playpen while I'm at work. The description implies that it can be used for small dogs, but my opinion would be that it is only suited for very small animals like hamsters, gerbil's, rabbits, etc...and again, perhaps tea-cup dog breeds.I see people complaining that this bottle leaks, and that to me is not a fair assessment. When it's in an upright position, it does not leak. The only "leaking that occurs, is from excess water that doesn't make it directly into your pet's mouth. Of course that would occur...Some people give the wrong impression...that it leaks on it's own, and that's just not a fair assessment...I ended up getting the same brand but in a larger size, and I'm happy with it. It has greater water flow, and like the first one I received, it does not leak on it's own...The overall construction and ease of use (clamps onto cages, or straps into a fabric playpen) is good...no complaints there...

Ok, so at first I was going to send it back because I thought it leaked terribly and wouldn’t stay in the holder. I noticed however that when I held it up at a certain degree or angle (while training my dog to use it with the help of adding peanut butter) it didn’t leak at all. I also noticed on one video that someone had it inside the cage instead of on the outside, like I did initially. After trying this, it stays in place. I believe I could probably tighten it a little more (without doing any damage) and it would probably work on the outside, like I see it doing in other videos, as well.

Works great..and doesn't drip! My large breed puppy loves it!

I love the easy assemble to the cages and the flow is great however for a large breed dog and heavy water drinker i expected this to be much bigger its not enough water i have 1 medium dog that has learned to conserve her water throughout the day as i work and im not home all the time to constantly refill but for my big boy he goes through this in mere minutes and its just not what i was expecting .

We just adopted a rabbit so this water bottle seemed to be a good choice. When it arrived I was surprised that it was smaller than expected (in fairness I never read the size), but it went together very easy and our bunny has used it no problem.

The bowl won't fit on the cat carrier I have, and the bottle drips a little, but overall pretty decent product

I have been through many water bottles over the years and they’ve all leaked and have rusted the metal on my dog crates. They all have “leak proof” in the titles but it’s always a lie ! I was VERY skeptical so I’ve tested it out for a while before my review. It’s very easy for my dog to get the water out. The 16mm bottle is perfect size for my shih tzu. A little water does get in the floor as he drinks so I have a little bowl on the floor to catch the water but it only happens from him drinking. Afterwards it’s back to no leaks. Highly recommend. I’ve already purchased a second one-I like that you can switch which way the water bottle faces without having to remove the holding mechanism off of the crate. So when I leave for the day I simply clip the water bottle to face into the crate and then flip it back around to face outwards during the rest of the time.

It gives enough water for my dog and doesn’t leak. There is some water spillage while the dog is drinking. This is the best quality of its kind and like that bottles to fit it are easily accessible, although I like the bottle it came with. Perfect!

I love the product, especially the mounting bracket which allows for a secure mount and is really versatile. Build quality is great, especially compared to the cheap $11 unit I already have. Problem is my 4 mos old rabbit refuses to drink from it! It works, I've shown it to her but she takes a lick or 2 and goes right back to the original. If I remove the original, she just uses her water dish. So strange, can't figure it out. Hope the critter grows into it.

The media could not be loaded.  I got this forMy dog because he suffers from mega esophagus and drinking water the regular way makes him regurgitate. I wasn’t sure how or where I would attach this but I think it turned out great. I used double sided tape and put it where there’s already a mat incase it drips. He figured it out fast and seems to like using it. Time will tell if it stays up ok.

Used in the crate for our dog when he was a puppy. Which he use to drink from it at night but now he does not use it that much. But it's good to know he will have water when he needs it. No leak!
