Skypet Fountain provides your dog with constant access to fresh, clean water. Constructed of aluminum, brass, and stainless steel, the Fountain will not rust and is almost indestructible. The Fountain features a paddle that is depressed by the dog's paw in order to activate the water flow. With minimal training, the pet can easily be trained to perform this motion. Once the paddle is depressed, the valve is opened and water will flow in an upward motion into the pet's mouth. The Fountain uses a typical garden hose as a water source. The unit is quickly attached and the flow of water is adjusted at the hose's spigot.
