Dexas
$8.99Dexas Popware Collapsible Bowl: Sizes, Specs & Alternatives
The Dexas Popware collapsible bowl is a packable silicone travel bowl for food or water on walks and hikes. Dexas describes a bowl that pops open for use and folds flat for storage, a quick-release clip that attaches to a leash, belt loop, or pack, and a dishwasher-safe, BPA-free build, across several sizes from a small ~8 oz cup to a large ~5-cup bowl.
H2O4K9
$17.99H2O4K9 Dog Water Bottle: Specs, Capacity & Alternatives
The H2O4K9 is a stainless steel water bottle built specifically for sharing water with a dog on the trail. The defining feature is a screw-on lid that detaches to become a small drinking bowl (~8 oz), so you carry one bottle and pour into the lid for the dog rather than squeezing or tilting a human bottle. The bottle itself holds about 25 oz (700 ml).
Ruffwear
$24.99Ruffwear Quencher Bowl: Sizes, Capacity & Alternatives
The Ruffwear Quencher Packable Dog Bowl is a collapsible square bowl designed for food and water on the go. It is made from a durable water-resistant shell fabric with a lightweight waterproof lining and includes reflective trim. The Quencher comes in three capacities (Small 0.75 L, Medium 1 L, Large 2.5 L), folds flat for pocket or pack storage, and—because its fabric construction is not rigid—must be held or placed on level ground to maintain shape. Ruffwear provides a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Ruffwear
$19.99Ruffwear Trail Runner Bowl: Weight, Specs & Alternatives
The Ruffwear Trail Runner Bowl is an ultralight, collapsible dog bowl designed for on-the-go hydration during trail runs, hikes and other outdoor activities. It holds 1 liter (4.2 cups / 32 oz), weighs 18.1 g (0.8 oz), and packs very small; the fabric is 210 denier nylon with a food-grade waterproof finish and taped seams. It folds into its own pocket with a Duraflex snap closure. The design is intended for immediate feeding/watering rather than long-term water storage, as it can sweat through over time. Ruffwear offers a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

The jacket is offered in sizes XS–XL (for example, a Medium lists a 18 in neck and 35 in chest). The jacket’s open chest design leaves the chest area exposed to cold and wind—an explicit limitation noted by the manufacturer.
Ruffwear
$34.99Ruffwear Bivy Collapsible Dog Bowl — Research Review
The Ruffwear Bivy is a single-size (1.5 L) collapsible bowl designed for portable feeding and hydration during outdoor adventures.

The product is covered by the Ruffwear Trail Tested Promise guarantee against defects in materials and craftsmanship.

Ruffwear
$59.99Ruffwear Swamp Cooler Zip — Research Review
The Ruffwear Swamp Cooler Zip is an evaporative cooling vest designed for light-and-fast, high-intensity hot-weather activities. It uses a three-layer evaporative construction plus a spandex back panel for a form-fitting, lightweight feel, offers SPF 50+ sun protection, and features a zippered closure. The vest must be soaked before use and re-wetted as it dries; it is noted as having reduced effectiveness in high humidity and is intended where a full-coverage vest would be too warm.
