Doggy Dative Water Bowl 

Doggy Daptive Water Bowl

by Pace Occupational Therapy

The Doggy Dative water bowl is a hose connected water dispenser to a dog bowl. A sensor in the dog bowl allows for the bowl to be lled and stop automatically when the water reaches a certain height. Within the water dispenser, a sensor connected to an alarm allows for the dog’s caretaker to be alerted when the water dispenser needs to be reeled.
The design of this device allows for individuals with visual impairments to independently rell the water dispenser and thus care for a guide dog while including automation aspects to support pet care and maintain safety.
