ABSTRACT:
A portable animal utensil having dish and water jug combined into one item. Only one item need be brought from home to satisfy the nutritional requirements of animals while away from home.
The canteen has a container 4 which serves as a reservoir for water. The canteen has a wide opening providing an aperture 6 to permit access by an animal to the contents of the container and to permit filling of the container with water.
A lid 10 is provided which is sized to fit the wide opening. Means are provided for removably securing the lid to the container and for creating a water tight seal 8 and 12.
Rigid loops 14 are attached to opposite outer walls of the container-and are provided for the retention of a carry strap 18. This carry strap is placed over the animal owner's shoulder for transporting the utensil.
The bottom of the canteen has means for removably securing the lid to the bottom of the container 20 while the animal is drinking. Securing the lid to the bottom of the container keeps the lid from getting lost and / or dirty. The upper surface of the lid is provided with high friction, non-skid means 22. When the lid is secured inverted to the bottom of the container, the high friction, non-skid means help prevent the utensil from sliding around on the floor or similar surface.
