Shall we call you Canreef's dog whisperer now? Will you be taking on contracts to train other reefers' dogs in leak detection?

My huskey would probably think the water was great and would play in it.

I've overflowed my RO barrel a couple times so I put a bulkhead at the top of the barrel with a hose going to a floor drain. I still ahven't learned my lesson as I have sent a few gallons of RO water down the drain but at least not all over the floor.

We don't have a dog, so I use an adjustable float valve and a pressure shut-off valve

Ya I know
It'd be so much more efficient to wake up to a dog jumping around in a big puddle
Just add a squirt of shampoo and bob's your uncle

Boring is good sometimes!
