The bottle is fantastic quality and size. But was disappointed they have stopped the little engraving of the bone and water drop in the trays. Offered a discount which I accepted but never got it.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Saw these at goodwoof dog show and I love it. Finally a neat and simple solution to carrying water and food in one. Great quality feel, zombie pink stands out well and the quality is very much premium... See more

Excellent 1st class quality item and the delivery was super speedy. Customer services were amazing when I contacted them when I realised I'd ordered the wrong colour. Can't recommend highly enough

Ideal bit of kit

Quick delivery, does what it says on the tin, so to speak. Ideal bit of kit for when going for long walks with the dog, keeps him happy having food and drink on the go 😀

Bottle itself is brilliant, cover not so much

Bottle itself is brilliant, I bought an extra dish and so have space for food, treats and water, keeps them cool and it’s good to have everything in one place! However, I am disappointed in the bottle cover I also bought. The clasp snapped on first use, which makes the bottle cover almost useless. Such a pity.On reading other reviews, this is not the first time this has happened and they have had as much success getting a replacement as I have- none!

Great product

Only downside is the bottles are a tad bulky/heavy!

But they are designed to keep water cool - they do!

They have a carabiner style clip which is great for hanging on a bag (though I don't actually use this I put in my bag)!

Water “bowl” screws onto the bottom of the bottle!

Great design! Great product!

First class

First class, the product it's fab and when I accidentally left the bottom bowl behind in a field the company was kind enough to replace it when I bought a standard bowl. In fact I bought another bottle as well as its perfect and when you've two dogs sometimes you need a lot of water.

Great product - perfect for an active dog

The product is great, packaging was superb - lovely use of tissue paper and stickers so hand a nice hand packed feel. The order was very late due to issues with their supplier and although there was some communication with the offer to cancel the order I felt there should have been at least one more update

Reply from Buddy Bottle

I’m so sorry for the poor experience you’ve had. I completely understand your frustration, and I want to be transparent with you.

Buddy Bottle is currently a one-person operation (just me!), and over the past few weeks, it’s been incredibly challenging to keep up with the level of service I hold myself to. That’s not an excuse—just some context I hope helps explain why things fell short this time.

Please rest assured that your refund has been processed, and I’ve taken this situation seriously. It’s been a tough but important lesson, and I’m now working hard on building better systems to make sure this kind of delay and miscommunication doesn’t happen again.

Outstanding Customer Experience

We have been using Buddy Bottle since last summer and it’s fantastic, great quality and brilliant to take out on trips with Rocky our Shih Tzu.

We left it by mistake on one of our days out and reordered as we cannot be without it.

Thankfully it has been found and it’s being sent back to us so I contacted customer support and explained the situation and asked it I could cancel the order.

They came back very quickly and have cancelled and have refunded, outstanding customer service.

I highly recommend this great company.

Awful delivery and response

Awful delivery and response
Took months to receive. And all we was told is it was due to a train derailment in India!

Thank you for your review, and I’m really sorry about your experience when ordering our pre-order colours.

When I placed the order back in April, I was assured by my manufacturer that they would arrive by June 15th. Unfortunately, I was later informed of unexpected delays due to track issues in Kazakhstan, which significantly impacted the shipping timeline.

We did send out multiple emails to keep our pre-order customers as informed as possible. That said, I completely understand how frustrating the uncertainty must have been—especially since I was also dealing with shifting and unclear delivery timeframes from my supplier.

In every update we sent, I made sure to offer a full refund option due to the unforeseen delays. I truly regret the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience during a situation that was out of our hands. There has been many lessons learned on our end!

If there’s anything I can do to make this right for you now, please don’t hesitate to let me know by contacting us at hello@buddybottle.store

Great product after it eventually…

Great product after it eventually turned up. Lesson learned, not to pre-order a bottle in future.
When it did arrive it was a lovely colour and great product

Thank you for your honest feedback—and I’m really glad to hear you love the bottle and its colour now that it’s finally arrived.

I completely understand your frustration with the wait, and you’re not alone in feeling let down by the delays. I’ve certainly learned some hard-won lessons through this pre-order process too—especially around communication, fulfilment, and managing expectations during unexpected supply chain hiccups.

While I hope you might consider ordering from us again in future (no pre-order required!), I genuinely appreciate you sticking with it—and for recognising the quality of the product in the end.
