anyone have one of these?

I have a small similar fountain that I use for my cats. They like it. It makes a horrid noise when the water gets too low and it's a bit of hassle keeping the pump clean, but the cats do like it and drink more with it.

That site is in pounds BTW, so the actual cost is double in Canadian dollars.

lol I did not even look at the price on the site, I only linked to that site to show what I am asking about its on sale at petcetra for $24, I just said $30 as a random stab at what it would be woth tax lol

no, we don't have one but I have always thought it would be a good thing to have.
Canadian dollars are twice as much as pounds? Pounds are worth about twice as much as US dollars!

One Pound =2.01 Canadian Dollars

I don't have it but I have something similar: http://www.thecatconnection.com/page...RINKWELLBIGDOG

It works well for what it is supposed to do. With three large dogs, though, I'm still filling up the resevior at least once a day, usually more. With my three I have to clean it once a week or else it can get really nasty. My Labs are very messy, though. They always play out in the dirt and come in and get it all in the bowl. But, even so, I don't think I'll ever go back to just a regular bowl. This stays clean much longer. Even over the three months I had just Mandy I was changing her water bowl (a regular stainless steel bowl) at least twice a day. Now, with two more dogs, I only have to refill it once or twice day, which isn't much of a hassle. I'd much rather clean this once a week then change out the bowl several times a day.

One thing you have to remember is to not let it run dry or get low. It's really bad for the motor. With this particular fountain it starts spurting out water and it's kind of loud. Otherwise, if you keep the water bowl full, it's VERY quiet. It's the quietest one I've had.

how do those work????

I don't have that, but I have one of those automatic water things, just with the jug upside down. We refill it probably every other day, but we do have to clean it at least every other week, or it gets gross in the bowl. I also love this: http://www.scatmat.com/Products/WaterDog/overview.asp
It turns on when your dog approaches. I'm sure it would take a bit of getting used to, though. Poor Boomer is already scared of the gurgling sounds of the automatic waterer.
