Abstract
A pet watering device includes a bowl having a base with an upwardly extending sidewall attached to the base. A ramp is disposed within the bowl and extends from the bowl sidewall to the base. The ramp includes an aperture for dispensing water. A pump is disposed within the bowl. A water reservoir is disposed between the pump and the ramp aperture for storing water removed by the pump from the bowl. Water stored in the reservoir overflows the reservoir onto the ramp through the ramp aperture for return of water to the bowl.
