Heated Animal Water Dispenser

An animal water dispenser for use with a container for holding water includes a base, a heat source, and an upper component. The base component defines a support surface. The heat source is supported on the base component and has a heat radiating element positioned above the support surface. The upper component is removably mountable on the support surface, and defines a trough arrangement for receiving water and including an engagement feature for supporting the container on the upper component with the mouth of the container in fluid communication with the trough arrangement. The upper component is configured to radiate heat from the heat source into the interior of the container when the container is supported on the engagement feature. The upper component is configured such that at least a portion of the heat radiating element is positioned within the interior of the container.
