I want to buy a heated water dish for my outdoor squirrels. However, I am having difficulty telling the size of the bowl, and determining if there are any problems like a shock hazard just from looking at the product. (Believe it or not, I have read reviews of some products where they are so cheap and inappropriately made that indeed they do have a shock hazard, etc.) I would feel much better purchasing a product that someone else on here has used successfully with no serious issues.
Please provide a link if you can recommend a good heated water dish for outdoor squirrels.

It's definitely late for this post, but here is heated ground bird bath I own where my squirrels can be seen taking drinks. I live in the NE and have long winters. It works great and survived the winter. I dump the water daily and clean it weekly with 10% H2O2.

Oh, how perfect! I like the color and design too.

This is not a heated water device, but it works well and the color looks very natural if you live in the NE. I bought it for $30 less. I dug a shallow hole, inserted it, and then placed small boulders/stones around it and trailing down the hill from it. It looks like a natural, tiny spring. (I didn't hook up the mini LED lights.) My backyard chipmunks, squirrels, and birds like to drink from it. It's too small for birds to get inside it and dirty the water. The circulating water won't assist misquotes to spread West Nile or Zika virus.
