We can drink from the tap and the dogs can too......although my dogs always like drinking out of puddles as well. Never hurt them.

I've read a lot of bad things about bottled water in general. Nothing to do with dogs but I read up that bottled water often has more bacteria in it than tap water because the conditions the water is kept in is ideal for bacteria growth. Secondly, bottled water has a massive impact on the environment because of it's weight and the cost of shipping it about the globe and the means of shipping it about the globe causing more pollution etc etc...

I also read up that it is no better than tap water.
We can drink our tap water too without boiling it...but it takes sorta like chlorine-y. I personally don't like the taste. The animals, minus Zeke, don't seem to care....
