Aqua Buddy Valve DetailAqua Buddy Connector Detail



The Aqua Buddy 2 qt. Automatic Pet Waterer is just the right size for home use and blends wih your decor. It connects to any standard garden hose and provides consistent fresh water for your dog or cat while you are away. The Aqua Buddy is made from durable polypropylene, is easy to clean, and is sun resistant.

The AquaBuddy uses an internal float and valve system. When your pet drinks and the water level drops, the valve opens and replenishes the water supply. As the bowl refills, the float rises and closes the valve. This simple but effective system will not overflow, and no training is required for your pet to use it. The Aqua Buddy is ideal for dogs and cats of all sizes or your other animal hydration needs.

Attaches to a standard outdoor spigot with a standard garden hose. If you need a short hose or you have a problem with your dog chewing the hose, try a metal washing machine line with a female to male adapter. This should be available at your local home improvement store. Made in the USA.

Great For Porch!!!!!
July 15, 2021
Product was delivered promptly and setup was super easy, just added a splitter to outside faucet and bought short (3 foot) hose from store. Works just like my larger auto waterers for the horses and cows.
Pros
  • Fast delivery!
  • Great Price!
  • Super Easy setup!!!!
Cons
  • Dogs wont go through doggie door to porch when its raining!!!!

Nice bowl & convenient
October 11, 2022
This bowl is nicely made but would not hold up to a chewer. That being said, I made it into a water spot for pups being walked by my yard. And for outdoor critters wanting a drink. I plumbed it under the frost line but will still have to turn it off if it's getting below freezing because it's connected to a spigot.
Pros
  • Easy and stable, difficult to flip over
Cons
  • The hose bib to the bowl is smaller than for a garden hose and has an adapter that is difficult to snug and will be an easy leak point.

We used it as a chicken waterer for a big flock. Worked perfectly, cleaned up easily. Will try it for our dogs next!

This thing leaks worse than any auto waterer I have ever seen! I tried multiple hose attachments and plumbers tape and it still leaks. I quit using it because it was just wasting water. It's a good idea in theory but poorly executed. I would not recommend this product

Have had to keep repairing it over and over again because it leaks and comes apart every few weeks between hose attachment and dish. Now it is to the point it won\'t even work without dripping anymore. Need to get another with MORE sturdy connection that won\'t leak.

Ordered two of these. First one failed but I blamed myself for over-tightening plastic connections. So I ordered a second, and was more careful. That one failed, too. BTW, both came with float jammed in fully closed position so that I had to disassemble unit to adjust float to proper level. I called "Customer Service" at Steve Snell and a very friendly guy sent me what he said would be "a repair kit." It was just the float. The float worked fine, it was the cheap plastic connections that failed both time. I would avoid any auto-waterer that depends on plastic to metal connections. The metal wins every time. I was hoping to negotiate a discount price on his $129 steel fitted one, but never got around to it. I would still deal with Snell because they did try to make it right. Just a bad product, in my experience.

I bought this for my cat but installed it in my chicken yard. Works great. If I could just figure out how to keep the water in the hose from freezing in the winter.

Have had this more than a year, and it gets HEAVY use. Was fine out all year through a heavy freeze but kept working. Absoultely a MUST for ANYONE with a dog and a yard, especially at such a marginal cost!

Great product, easy to adjust water level! Better than spending 70 dollars at Petsmart.
