Keep water on hand.

Hi everyone. I know I usually write about doggy stuff but this water bottle is PAWSOME.
My mama is in a wheelchair and she likes to drink lots of water. She was given the Eddy bottle from the nice people at CamelBak.
Now I know thats a silly name for a water bottle and backpack company but I think it's kinda catchy. See Camels store their water in that big hump on their back.

These bottles are built to last. They go through so much testing. This just proves they're super strong.

I love these bottle because they have sizes for all the two legged members of your family. Even the little ones. They get tougher super strong bite valves for those super sharp teeth. Plus the fun colors and prints will have the tiny hands ditching those dull baby bottles, and kicking the sippy cup habit for a big kid cup. They will always be asking, fill my bottle please. This is a fun and easy way to get them to drink more water.

Camelbak was started in 1989 by Bicycle enthusiast Michael Eidson, is competing in the "Hotter'N Hell 100." And that's exactly what it is: a 100-mile road race in the grueling summer heat of Wichita Falls, Texas. Water is vital to surviving the race, and there are few places to refill a water bottle. Eidson, an emergency medical technician by trade, decides to fill an IV bag with water and slip it into a white tube sock. Yes, a tube sock. Then he stuffs the contraption into the back of his bike jersey, throws the thin hose over his shoulder and clamps it with a clothespin.
Hands-free hydration is born. And Eidson is able to drink as he pedals...while the other racers laugh and fiddle with their water bottles.

OPERATION HYDRATION — THE ROAD TO SURVIVAL
Jeff Wemmer, a competitive cyclist who fell hard for CamelBak, was so impressed by the product that he started bringing packs to races to sell them. Talk about a fan. CamelBak eventually hired him, and in 1993, Jeff embarked on a road trip to keep the start-up running during very tough times.
Company lore has it that Jeff visited bike shops from Florida to California, pitching our product from the back of his motorcycle. Each order Jeff faxed back to the factory literally breathed another day of life back into CamelBak.

THE REST IS HISTORY
It took courage, conviction and imagination to evolve from an IV bag in a tube sock sold by a motorcycle-driven sales force of one. Our core values remain the same and drive everything we do - from inventing the hydration category to becoming the world's leading maker of hydration solutions.

Oh yeah...about those cyclists who laughed at Eidson? Well, chances are they've got a CamelBak strapped to their back or in their bike cage these days. Go figure...
CamelBak is all about giving back to those in need and that makes them super pawsome. To learn about the great ways they give back check out this link.

I really love this company for the simple fact that  they do a lot of good for the environment, things like encouraging their employees to ride bikes or public transportation to work. That helps cut down on that icky pollution. I HATE pollution it makes me wanna growl. GURRR.

Now back to this bottle. It's made of really strong BPA free plastic and has a built in removable straw and this really cool thing called a bite valve.  To use that bite valve you simple lightly bite and suck and then you get a nice big gulp of water.

Don't wanna use the straw?? That's cool too.  Take it off and use the tip and sip feature.

Cleaning this bottle is super simple.

I like the fact they stand behind their products proving that CamelBak has your back.

So if you need a high quality easy to use water bottle to make sure your person always has water to share with you drag them out and make them buy a CamelBak. You won't be sorry.  They are so many colors and options that there's something for everyone.

 

In fact I have a doggy friendly bottle idea for them. They already have a bike bottle with a jet valve. Maybe they can make an attachment to the lid that your human can put a small pop up dog bowl on so on a walk, you can have your person pop off that bowl and squeeze some water in it for you.
