A liquid dispensing container, comprising:

• a container body including an interior space, a bottom wall, a first hand-gripping structure opposite the bottom wall of the container body, a first upper wall vertically positioned proximate a top portion of the first hand-gripping structure, a second upper wall vertically positioned one of level with a lowermost portion of the first hand-gripping structure and below the lowermost portion of the first hand-gripping structure, and a second hand-gripping structure attached to a portion of the container body at a location spaced away from the first hand-gripping structure, wherein the second upper wall is laterally spaced away from the first upper wall and wherein a first end wall of the container body defines a first container support surface upon which the container body rests when in a surface-supported liquid dispensing position;
• a vent tube having a first end portion and a second end portion, wherein the first end portion of the vent tube is attached to a vent tube attachment portion of the first upper wall of the container body, wherein the second end portion of the vent tube is adjacent the bottom wall, wherein the vent tube has a central passage extending between the first and second end portions thereof, wherein the central passage of the vent tube is exposed at the first end portion thereof to an ambient environment surrounding the container body through an opening within the vent tube attachment portion of the first upper wall whereby the central passage is in fluid communication with the ambient environment surrounding the container body and with the interior space, and wherein the vent tube extends through the second hand-gripping structure;
• and
• a liquid delivery body attached to the second upper wall of the container body and having a central passage extending therethrough.
