Well I finally got Lexi's Wall Mount Water Bottle up. What I ended up doing it screwing a board to the wall and then using velcro to mount the water bottle to the board. Here is a picture of it.

It works great because I don't have to worry about ruining the wall.

I wish I would have painted it before we put it up. Oh, well.

 

[mylittlebella]

oh yeah...

It doesn't look bad though.

She's got a nice tooshy! How many lbs is she?

I hope you're able to detach the water bottle though. If you really really want to paint it, I dont think it'll be hard. Just put tape around the walls so you wouldnt get paint on your walls.

Last time I weighed her (end of Sept) she weighed 6.8lbs.

The bottle is attached to the board with industrial strength velcro. I'm able to take it off to wash and fill.

Is the water bottle itself plastic or glass, I have read so many posts that indicate not to use plastic? So if it is glass where did you find it. Lexi has a beautiful coat by the way....and yes nice tushie

Thanks! I'm trying to grow her hair out so she looks really puffy right now. The hair is around 2.5 inches right now.

I got a plastic bottle from PetSmart. She has 2 plastic water bottles (the wall one and then one in her crate). The only glass water bottles I know of are available on Cherry Brook's website. I didn't like this one because it is $17.52 plus shipping for 1 bottle. I was afraid of breaking it too. I'll see how Lexi's tear stains are doing this winter (after allergy season). If she is still tearing I'll look into the glass bottles.

Thanks for the info. keep us posted on how she does with the staining, I know what you mean about allergy season. Pudge had cleared up so much and then this late summer early fall he has staining again. UGHH-I know it is allergies and this to shall pass....Josie thank goodness hardly ever has much of a problem.
