Which is less likely to leak? 33oz Lixit or the colorful licker option? I recently had the larger 44 oz Lixit and it leaked, so don't want that one!

I have the 33 oz lixit and it doesn't leak. For the couple of drops that come out initially, I just put a little towel on the stand.

They all start to drip slowly til empty, after certain period of time. The ball bearing in the spout gets dirty or slick from a build up of the dog's saliva. I had this problem after a few weeks, and called the Lixit company. I was told to clean it really well and dry it. The best way that's works for me, is to soak the spout in warm soapy water for a couple hours, then rinse with clean water well. Then you need to dry the ball from the bottom rubbing a towel over it to remove everything. Now the spout wont leak, as no gunk is messing it up.

I have a stainless 18 oz model. I tried putting it in my backpack but found found that it leaked quite a bit. It must be kept upright.

i would not go with the 24 ounce size - it is too big for carrying around. But i would recommend a smaller version. The twist off is easy to use and if you get a spout version of the top they would just need to pull up on the spout to get a drink. Also, I would suggest the narrow mouth version as the wide mouth can spill over on a small mouth.

i lost mine too, but it seemed to function okay without leaking. however it may eventually. i would look for a replacement if you are going to keep the unit.

This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used. I noticed it right off by the weight if the bottle when empty. But I haven't noticed it only fizzing only half the bottle. I do try to use it within 2 days as the fizz tends to weaken after sitting around more than that. If I have it laying around longer than 2 days, I actually push the nozzle to dump the water as I want to keep it fresh and clean as possible. I actually like the smaller container as not as heavy and doesn't take as much water. But it tajes the same charger whether either container. When I refill a new batch, I usually shake it like 20-30 times and use realky cold water which makes it fizz better. This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used.

Also, I would recommend getting the smaller 250ml bottle to try, then get the large 500ml one later if you like it enough (though the larger bottle is obviously the better deal overall)!

A couple of questions:How old is your bottle?? Often you can get "material" in the various seals which can affect the closure seals. Please check out the bite nipple and clean because you can have some serious "science" experiments.How full do you fill your bottle??I found a little bit of air space stops any possible leaks. I often flip my bottle over and shake it vigorously because you have water in the straw that needs to be drained to ensure minimal leaking.The main thing is that the Camelback bottles will not be as watertight as a screwed top without any drinking straw. I wouldn't trust my bottles if they were on their side without a bit of leakage...Good luck A couple of questions:How old is your bottle??

I'd agree -- I'd say 3.0 is about 95% leak proof, where the previous version (2.0?) was about 50% leak proof, and totally unreliable if the Kanteen was on its side. This one has been tipped over a batch of times in my briefcase without leaking.

Hi Cody.. Its been awhile since I purchased the 16.8oz size. I personally rather buy the 26oz that was $1 more at the time I made my purchase, which all three of my family members use on a day to day basis and I ordered it Nov 9th we still have enough for at least 2 more months. I hope this was helpful!

I've been using Nalgene Cantenes for 10 years now, never had one leak. I popped one, but that was my own fault, sat on it in my pack while it was half full of water.

I have only bought the 33 ounce bottle and it's pretty great stuff. The product itself is pretty watery but that's the formulation of it. I think it's the original. Amazing product though!

Thank you! many times... I will seek out the Ziploc pump + bags at your (and others)solid recomendations. It is gratifying to know I am deffinately not the only "leaky" bag person.

I use the Nectar Guard Tips with Aspects 429 Hummzinger Highview Feeder. Love that feeder, by the way. Non-spill, nice tight seal, holds plenty of food, cleans really nice - best one I've had. The feedy-holes are bigger than other feeders, however, and these tips work great.

I've only bought the 1.69 fl.oz. size - its more economical! It lasts me maybe 5 months/once a day. Good luck!

Thank you both. So it sounds like the squeeze bottle is the better option then!

I have been using the Lixit 44 no-drip bottle for my puppy since June and I have refilled it every day or so from the top. I have NEVER had a leak or a pool of water. I would check the way the drip spout is put together or wash it as it may have collected a piece of debris.

I use the .5L size to fit in a pocket for sporting events or other places where the "beverages" are expensive to purchase. Use the larger sizes for extra water when backpacking. Never had any leaking with any method of carry. I use the standard screw top sold cap, but there is the option to buy a bite valve style, no knowledge with those.
