A 19 Year Old Gadget That's Still Selling!

I was originally going to make the Handi-Drink dog water bottle a Dick’s Gadget Warehouse pick. It goes back to 1993, so it’s 19 year old. That’s more like a hundred in gadget years. But when I started doing a web search I discovered the Handi-Drink is very much alive and selling! This clever gadget combines a durable reusable sport water bottle with a unique wrap-around water dish. To give your dog a drink, fold down the water pan and pop out the water bottle. A flexible cap on the water bottle clicks right into the Handi-Drink water tray. When you squeeze the bottle, water runs into the tray where your pet can easily lap it up. You don’t even have to fill up the pan. When you stop squeezing, the automatic valve stops the water stream. Handi-Drink comes with both a belt clip and a lanyard if you’d like to wear it. It’s all in one, so you don’t have to carry a water bottle and a separate bowl or cup. It’s perfect for the park, hikes, camping, beach, dog shows, etc. My vet said it’s bad for pets to drink from any sort of communal drinking fountain, like the ones found in some dog runs. Handi-Drink takes care of that problem. You can easily carry your own clean water. The unit currently on sale seems to be exactly the same as it was 19 years ago. But at the company website, I see they now have a larger and a smaller version. The original version is 17 ounces. They now offer also offer 9 ounce and a 25-ounce size. Checking Amazon, I see the original 17-ounce Handi-Drink for as low as about $7! Here’s the company website:

It’s here on Amazon for $6.90. I haven’t bought anything at this website:
