My sister had a brilliant idea when travelling with their dog - he drinks a lot, so she bought a dinner plate size round plastic bowl, with a lid that fits tight. She then proceeded to cut a circle in the lid, big enough for the dog to get his head in. They can sit it on the floor of the car, or even the seat, and no water spills. Meant to get a picture, but forgot. It holds enough water for quite a good drink for Esky, and all are happy.

We met a traveller near Coober Pedy who made this up. He insisted I take a photo to share with fellow grey nomads. Just a traditional dog bowl, with a fitted piece of rubber or similar glued on to the dog bowl. He told us and showed us that it never spills a drop The water moves in a circular motion when the vehicle is motion, and the bowl does not tip over.
Thanks for that solarpanel4. Didn't know they were commercially available.

Anti Spill Pet Water Bowl.
The ingenious, patented design of the Cruiser Bowl provides a secure and non spill water supply for dogs and cats. The concept is simple but brilliant. The water (approx 2.5 litres) is stored within the vacuum of side walls of the bowl, maintaining a consistent small depth of water (approx 20mm high) accessible for the animal to drink via the central drinking funnel.
The bowl can go from 'back yard' to the car and you can have confidence that it will not spill.
The water stored in the bowl provides substantial weight. This inhibits the bowl froom being upturned by robust dogs and puppies. Even if the bowl is tipped over, the unique design of the bowl ensures that spillage is limited and water is retained within the vacuum of the bowl for the animal.
