No, actually I bought it for our dog, Lucy, when she was a puppy. We kept her in a large wire kennel and strapped the large hamster bottle to the side of it. I had seen this done in pet stores for pups, so I thought it would be better than her spilling, and stepping in, her water bowl. Worked like a charm.
Lucy was only 7 weeks old when we trained her that the bottle had water in it, but I don't know if you could train an older dog or not. At some point, Scooter, the cat, discovered it while snooping around in Lucy's empty kennel, and now she had rather drink there than from her regular watering bowl.

Pets are such fun to have. I love my chihuahua, Fidel.
When he was a baby, he wouldn’t walk around to the other side of the plate to get the food farthest from him. Instead, he stood on his front paws and leaned over the plate to the opposite side.
I wish I had taken a film of it.
