The entire Drinkwell Fountain range is designed to entice your pet to drink more water*, look great in your home, and be easy to clean.Â
The filters used with the systems ensure that any unpleasant tastes or odours lurking in or near the water are eliminated to provide your pet with only the freshest, cleanest running water.
*Most animals have a natural instinct to drink from moving water rather than stagnant water in the fear that it may be contaminated.

A regular daily water intake is absolutely essential for your dog's health and well-being. Unlike humans, a dog's body is made up of 80% water (humans are 50-60% water). To ensure your dog is well hydrated, it is important to understand how much water your dog actually needs. Each day, your pet requires 70mL of water per kilogram of body weight - read the chart below for a guide.
