Always Full - The Pet Bowl That Never Runs Dry

I had the chance to sit down with Steve Booher, the founder and CEO of Always Full, and what an inspiring conversation it was.

 

Steve’s entrepreneurial journey spans decades, from walking away from a “lifetime” corporate job to building multiple companies across engineering, manufacturing, and ag-tech. Along the way, he learned hard lessons about trust, cash flow, and resilience. And now, he’s bringing all of that experience into the pet space with a product that solves a simple but universal problem—keeping your pet’s water bowl always full and always clean.

In our conversation, Steve shared the story of how a broken arm in his family turned into the spark for Always Full. What began as a sketch in AutoCAD evolved into a laser-precise, vortex-flushing, self-cleaning water bowl that pet parents (and pets!) are falling in love with.

 

From overcoming engineering challenges, to winning awards at SuperZoo and Global Pet Expo, to preparing for retail and online expansion, Steve walked us through what it takes to build not just a product, but a brand that truly makes a difference in people’s lives.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

* How Steve’s early career experiences led him to embrace entrepreneurship

 

* The tough lessons he learned building and selling multiple companies before Always Full

 

* How his wife’s broken arm sparked the idea for a better water bowl

 

* The engineering process behind Always Full, including the vortex flush and filtration system

 

* Why Always Full is gaining traction with consumers, retailers, and even industry awards

Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to this episode of The Story of a Brand as we dive into the journey of an entrepreneur who’s proving that solving real problems—like keeping your pets healthy and hydrated—can be both meaningful and transformative.
