I have found that Better Hydration is perfect for post run hydration for Canicross runs and on our long runs I take some out with me.

Definitely worth purchasing! And is an essential on our doggy hikes now. Assure they drink every last drop of water, to keep them hydrated - with the other added benefits too. What an awesome product!

Dogs that don’t drink enough water

★★★★★

I’ve never been able to get her to drink whilst training and at shows now she loves break times! Cannot recommend this product enough!

Fussy drinkers who ignore their bowl

My dogs all love Better Hydration, and it's great for keeping fussy drinkers hydrated all day. Ora in the video is a Xoloitzcuintle, and being Mexican can be very reluctant to drink.

Since I have been giving my dogs Better Every Day their coats are really shine. Another major plus is that it has Ali stopped one of my dogs itching.

Customer photo review of Better Hydration Metal Shaker

The old plastic shakers were fine but this is great at mixing and is really nice to handle.

Went for the starter bundle and both my collies go crazy for their shake in such a short time of having it. Its reassuring to know that when they arent drinking much water they will clear a bowl of better dog in seconds!

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

So much better than the plastic bottle the lid fits perfectly unlike the plastic one

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

The metal shaker is fab as it keeps cool longer which is really useful out on walks and great around the rings at shows when Luca needs cool hydration🐾😍

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

Great service quick delivery shaker way to use and dogs love the better hydration powder

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

The shaker is ideal for carrying to agility, so I can give my dog the better hydration mixture after she has taken part.

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

Im envious that my dog has a nicer shaker than i do, full metal and the lid is rubberised to enhance grip plus a little carry handle but into the lid! Lots of thought went into this and it pays off

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

Shaker is a great idea. Mixes really well. Sadly my little dog is a fussy eater and doesn’t drink much which is why I bought this product. Any suggestions or advice to get her to drink would be appreciated. Thank you

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

When I worked out what the spring shaped egg was for (to mix the powder and water) I found it really helpful. No using a spoon to stir it up.

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

Much more efficient at mixing and easier to wash than the plastic one . Thank you.

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

The metal shaker is much better than the plastic one keeps the better hydration cooler for longer

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

It leaks when shaken - it has to be shaken so rubbish it leaks through the lid. Yes it is done up properly, re-secured it multiple times and still leaks

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

I like that it's metal but the lid is not as deep and I liked to use the lid of the plastic one as a bowl

Better Hydration Metal Shaker

Really happy with the new shaker keeps the liquid cool. It has nice easy to see liquid measurements on the outside and inside …. a great product 🤩
