The Drinkwell® Big-Dog Fountain was designed by a veterinarian specifically for large dogs. The Drinkwell® Big-Dog holds well over two gallons of water, making it the largest capacity pet fountain on the market (288 oz.)! Ideal for large dogs and multiple-pet homes, the Big Dog uses the same innovative watering system as the Original Pet Fountain, featuring the patented free-falling stream of water that consumers have come to rely on for cats and small dogs for the past decade. A large charcoal filter removes bad tastes and odors leaving your pet with fresh-tasting, filtered water. The Drinkwell® Big-Dog is the best and most convenient way to provide man's best friend with fresh filtered water for days at a time.

I bought this fountain last summer and it worked very well. The filter that arrived with the fountain lasted 4 weeks and worked wonderfully. When I replaced the filter, I noticed that there was black residue at the bottom of the reservoir. The new filter was bleeding into the water. So I called the company and the young lady who answered was very nice and recommended I rinse the filter in cold water before using it (she also sent me a pack of replacement filters gratis, she didn't have to do this). I replaced the water and tried another filter after rinsing it and again it bled into the water. I then used the fountain without a filter and it worked fine this way for a while but I noticed the mildew occurred a lot faster than with the filter.
Also, After several months of use the motor began to stick and was very difficult to remove during disassembly. Basically, I have mixed feelings about this fountain. It works well, but that filter has some issues. I've stopped using the fountain for everyday, its just too much trouble.

I have a medium sized Labrador, a large Doberman, and several cats. With two other smaller waterers in my home I am still finding I have to fill this unit up about every 14-18 hours which is not what I anticipated from reading the reviews. I have also found it to be the noisiest of all the waterers I have tried so far. I was hoping to find additional reservoirs with lids that could be filled and stored in the refrigerator and changed as needed but I don't think Drinkwell makes reservoirs that can be stored.

I have a cat that loves to drink from the sink. I was hoping that the fountain would keep the cat out of the sink and it helps but not totally. It took about one day for the dog to get used to the fountain. Overall I love it because I no longer have to worry about a dry water bowl. At first I was skeptical about the whole cleaning process but it isn't difficult. I like to empty it and refill it twice a week instead of once.

My dogs didn't take to it right away. It took awhile for them to get used to it. I gave it 5 stars because I'm not cleaning and filling up their water bowl every 4 hours (I have 2 big "kids"). I fill up the reservoir maybe once a day. Cleaning wasn't as bad as I thought after reading the other reviews I was dreading it, but its really not that hard. I love my Drinkwell, it was well worth the $$!

Save your money. Worst waterer I have ever purchased. Water in bowl must be changed and the bowl cleaned daily. The pump is noisy. The waterer takes alot of time to clean it even with the cleaning kit. Buy an Ergo Pet Waterer if you want a fountain that actually supplies enough water for a big dog and does not need to be cleaned every day.
