The moment you need water on a walk is rarely the moment you are anywhere near any, and carrying a bottle plus a separate bowl means juggling both while a thirsty dog winds the lead round your legs. This one folds open into its own drinking trough: squeeze, the dog drinks, and whatever is left pours back into the bottle instead of onto the pavement.

It is ABS and food-grade silicone with a leaf-textured body that gives you some grip when your hands are cold or wet, and it holds 300ml at around 14.5cm tall. Silicone is the right material here precisely because it squeezes, so you control the flow rather than tipping and hoping. There is a carry strap so it can hang off a bag or a belt loop, and the whole thing rinses out under a tap.

• 300ml capacity, roughly 14.5 x 7 cm
• ABS and food-grade silicone
• Folds open into an integrated drinking trough
• Leftover water pours back into the bottle
• Carry strap for hands-free walks
• Seven colours across the leaf and split designs

Worth knowing. It does not. There is a single 300ml capacity and the choice is colour only. For a large dog on a long summer walk, 300ml is one good drink rather than a day's supply, so plan around that or carry a second bottle.

Who it's for: Owners of small and medium dogs who walk, travel or hike and want water to hand without carrying a bowl as well.
