Pure Spring Water
(Home Page)
In recent years, bottled water has become increasingly popular
primarily due to a new awareness in health and nutrition.
Just as safe, clean water is an important part of our lives,
so too, it should be a vital part of our pet’s lives.
In retail stores, whole aisles are devoted to selling clean,
fresh water for human consumption. Yet, even when shopping
in a pet store, we rarely find much of anything in terms of
safe, clean drinking water for our pets. We believe the pet
industry continues to grow in the knowledge and production
of nutritional foods, but still lacks the needed awareness
for safe and proper hydration for our animal friends. Our
vision is to offer pet owners a safe, yet convenient way to
keep pets hydrated! |
Convenience:
Although there are always exceptions to any rule, most dogs
prefer to lap their water. Just as humans typically don’t
lap water; dogs typically don’t drink from bottles!
Misty Pure is packaged in disposable bowls! Once your pet
is finished, just toss the container in the recycle bin
for easy clean up. For short term storage of unfinished
product, use the snap on lid.
Water Quality:
Why is water quality important? After all, don’t some
dogs prefer lakes, ponds, or even toilets as their drink
of choice?? This may be true, but just as young children
require direction when it comes to consumption of foods
and drinks, so do our pets. Studies have found that good
quality water has numerous health benefits such as:
-
Hydration of internal organs helping them function
properly
-
Increased energy
-
Helping our immune system
-
Flushing out waste and toxins

| As
pet owners we should place as much attention on the quality
of the water our pet drinks as we do on the ingredients that
go into the best pet foods. Not all water is the same. Quality
of water is just as important as the quantity. Regular consumption
of water that has been contaminated with heavy metals or residues
of chemicals will not promote good health. Most tap water
in municipalities comes from surface water, such as lakes
and reservoirs, and it must be treated to filter out particulates
and kill microorganisms. If the treatment system is working
properly, the water also will be tested for approximately
80 different compounds as dictated by EPA regulations. Unfortunately,
there are several hundred thousand chemicals present in the
environment from fertilizers, insecticides, pesticides, fungicides
and other chemical and industrial wastes. Therefore, many
pollutants in water are never identified. |
