Facts or Myths: Fresh water all day for your precious dog with WaterDog by Contech

One of the coolest invention which solve pet owners' headache of providing fresh water to their pets, especially during summer.  The Contech waterdog which claims to be an automatic outdoor drinking fountain, lets your dog help itself to fresh water and you don't have to worrk about empty water bowls or stagnant water if you leave your dog outdoor while you are at work. Is it really good?

Apparently, the sonar sensing technology will trigger the WaterDog to turn the water on when you pet comes within one meter of it and is smart enough to turn it off when you pet leaves. The height is adjustable so it will suit any size dog. Overall, it worked pretty well. Except for occassional leaking if the water pressure of your water mains is set to be too high. The price is a little bit high at about AUD$100 but if you want a hassle free, no wastage, no washing automatic water bowl, this is a cool gizmo for your dog and I am sure he will like it.

1 litre of water a day, keeps the vet away just like an apple does to human.
