Your dog steps on the built-in step pad with their paw, which instantly triggers a stream of water. When they lift their paw, the water stops automatically. Despite the product name referencing motion-activation, the trigger mechanism is a paw-press step pad — not a proximity sensor — so water only flows on demand.

The fountain connects to any standard 3/4-inch garden hose fitting — the most common size found in North American homes. No adapters, tools, or plumbing experience are needed. Setup takes under five minutes.

No electricity or batteries are required. The fountain runs entirely on your home's water pressure via the connected garden hose. This makes it ideal for yards, patios, and gardens where outdoor power outlets are unavailable.

Yes. Water flow is adjustable via your standard hose valve — simply turn it up or down to set a comfortable pressure level before your dog uses the fountain. There is no separate flow dial on the unit itself; the hose valve is the control point.

Yes. The fountain is designed for dogs of all sizes. The step pad is sized so that small, medium, and large breeds can all activate it with ease. It is intended for outdoor use only and is not suitable for indoor or cat use.

Most dogs learn quickly with a little guidance. Simply gently place your dog's paw on the step pad to trigger the water flow and let them drink. Repeat a few times and reward them — dogs typically begin pressing the pad independently within a few sessions. The product description notes dogs learn to use it without owner assistance once familiar.
