I am getting this for my dog to fly with. Does this work one for food and one for water?

do not recommend for water, bowl is flimsy and the hook will eventually break

Problem I have with mine is the bowl falls through the holder. Otherwise it could work for you.

It is very light weight empty. Similar to the weight of a child's backpack. I think it would be suitable for both depending on how heavy it is packed and what your dog can tolerate. I've only been on walks so my dog can get used to it. She seems to not notice it's there, so far. I haven't fully loaded it yet.

We use it to travel. We had it up for three days. Water on one side and food in the other. We like it. We will be taking it on another trip this weekend. The legs are angled and don't teeter.FYI the mat that Amazon carries is not big enough to fit under the stand you need to order the large one from here http://www.doggiecoutureshop.com/Dog_Placemat_p/wp-c2c-dx30636-8.htmIt was too expensive from the manufacturers.With shipping it was outrageous.http://store.dexas.com/pet-bowl-grippmat/

It can be used for both. It has a large lid that can be removed to let food flow into the dish. When the lid is on it has a small opening for water.

It has a lip on it which you pick up from. No contact with dog. However, if traveling by plane, the TSA will have you remove the dog so they can check the carrier. Then they tag it saying its been checked. Also our dog got nervous and chewed the plastic bowl dishes.

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.

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.

We used it to dispense our dogs' meals. We made sure she was hungry! Play with your pup a few times, knock the wobbler around and let her get lots of treats when she is hungry. Good luck.

The Big Dog Pet Fountain puts out a good bit of water, the stream of water is pretty good. Our dog loves it. Have you moved the the flipper located on the right side(which is in front of the motor) if you are facing the fountain. Move it to the right to increase flow. We have used this fountain for a long time, both our cat and dog love drinking from the stream so guess it enough for them

NO. I have two Great Danes. It was much much better than a bowl of sitting water, but it doesn't filter out slobber completely. AND the motor burned out after only 4 days of use. I returned this item.

I would not use it for water personally. It is more for food and hay. It could be used for water if you wanted to. It is a little shallow for water though unless you have a very small animal.

it comes with both dog food feeder and water feeder.the dog food feeder is a little wonky. It never seems to sit properly on the dog base but other then that its been a good set for the price.

water yes... but do not submerge, operate in the rain or under running tap. It's designed to work on all terrains.... In water it will take on a little water to balance and settle more to move around better in the water. when it's out of the water you have to drain properly and let it dry for a while. Do not use it near the beach or salt water as it may rust screws and other metal pieces. I love love this toy.... I'm going to be buying more of this. It's very versatile and can take some knocking around.

Each airline is slightly different so it's best to ask ahead of time. United Airlines requires air vents on all 4 sides, which this has.. But if you're not buying a ticket to carry your pet in the cabin this is not ideal for excess cargo. Just being honest! Flying cargo means that your pet will be next to heavy boxes, suitcases, etc. And in my experience the airlines will require a secure lock - to ensure your pet won't escape (they're trying to avoid a lawsuit here) - and food already inside the crate with your pet. The kicker here, at least with United Airlines, is that you cannot have water in the crate prior to take off. Instead, you have to build a water spout to ensure the flight crew #1 doesn't spill water when they load your pet into the plane & #2 doesn't let your scared pet out during mid flight. They'll provide water after take off, but they will not open the crate door for ANY reason, airline policy. Sorry for the long response, United Airlines made me jump through hoops. Save yourself the trouble & confirm what the requirements are, ideally before you buy your ticket. Everyone is different! But yes, if your pet is allowed in the cabin this will work.

If your dogs are OK together, this carrier would be fine to contain both (lots of room for a couple of 2 lb. dogs). I'm wondering if you can get by with paying for just one dog since they'd fit in one regulation carrier? There is a mesh (expanding) pocket on one end and a side pocket. I can put a leash in one & a baggie of snacks, collapsible water dish & poop bags in the pockets. I store 2 folded pee pads under the removeable lambs wool (faux) liner inside the carrier. This carrier is well made & the inside washes out easily if needed. I love the wheels, although with your bouncy light-weight dogs, it might be a bit tippy as you pull it. I have no problem with pulling my 19 lb. dashound mix. Happy travels! If your dogs are OK together, this carrier would be fine to contain both (lots of room for a couple of 2 lb. dogs).

I can't honestly answer that because that hasn't been an issue here, but I would think not. Nothing I've read about it has indicated that it would help with this issue. It's main benefit is to help the pet absorb more nutrients out of the dry food served.

Yes. Have used this for a good 10 years on many a long hike with my three dogs. Its just about the perfect way of carrying extra water plus a dinner/water dish to boot. Pretty much indestructible.
