I got this water bottle as i am someone who didn't want to have to cary extra things for her or her own separate water-bottle. It has worked great so far and it's conevient for me since I also need to drink water. the bowl is a little finicky sometimes when sliding it back on the bottle but if he let the air out by pulling a corner it goes on like a glove. its not too heavy by any means especially since its for the two of us. the bowl is definitely enough for a smaller dog but my require a couple refills for bigger pooches. It's an awkward size (as expected from the photos) so it doesn't fit well in cupholders or backpacks, but the handle is super durable and i can slip the leash over it and hold both at the same time.Ill do an update post if i get any good photos of her with it or if something chanes.
