Silicone Snuffle Mat for Small Medium Dogs,Slow Feeder Lick Mat for Pet Slow Down Eating,Encourages Natural Foraging Skill,Interactive Feed Game T...

We (my dog and I) love this product. It is sturdy and has a nice, functional design. He gets his dry food and fruit in it and he loves to snuffe around to find them. Made of purple silicone, it's easy to clean. It has suction cups on the bottom so it stays put. It has held up very well and is worth the cost to keep my dog busy and happy. I recommend.

Great product, I love how easy it is to clean and my dog love routing around for treats. Great value as well.

Sadie, our 2 yo golden retriever, was getting bored with meals in her plain old dog dish. But she'll happily eat her meals and forage for the hidden treats with this mat! She gets so engrossed that she doesn't want anyone to bother her when she's foraging in the mat. She even enjoys picking up the mat and shaking out some kibble to eat from the floor. Sadie wants to play with this as a toy, but we won't let her because she'll destroy it...it's not made for that. So now it's her special mealtime fun. It's also VERY easy to clean, which was a big consideration in our purchase decision. This mat is fun and engaging for Sadie and easy for me. Excellent purchase.

Many slow feeder bowls are not made to work well for short muzzled dogs or even some small or toy breeds. The wells or paths are too deep. What a frustrating way to eat!! And then if you have a really determined and hungry little guy nuzzling into the stainless steel or not-so-great plastic bowl they can really end up hurting their little snout. Even if you arent looking for a slow feeder but wanted to give your pup the fun experience of a snuffle mat but have wondered where to start I will tell you. Dont start with the fabric and felt ones!! Yes, they are so cute! Yes, your dog will have a blast. But dang, they are a pain to wash. You will need to put them in the washing machine often or they will get nasty, even with dry food because they will slobber on it. You mainly need to stick with dry foods but can sneak some veggies if its on wash day. They just get gross. And then when they pick it up and shake it and the treats go flying around the room! But this cute silicone slow feeder mat works as a snuffle mat! We have a small pug who eats fast and then tries to trick the next family member into feeding him. But when we use this cute purple mat he gets so excited and it easily takes him 10x longer to finish his food. Enough time for his tummy to tell his brain hes full. And he had fun. We pour a scoop of his kibble over the mat and spread it a bit. Most will easily fall to the bottom. Next we add his treat. Some peas or pumpkin and smoosh those in. Occasionally a tiny sprinkle of cheese. You have multiple sizes and patterns to select from. We love this full leaf as it has lots of hiding spots that are flexible and easy enough for short muzzled and small dogs to fully access. It is a super soft silicone so no sore noses. My poor pup did rub is nose nearly raw on a felt snuffle mat after 10 minutes. You could put hard or soft foods in it. You could fill it and freeze it. I never have tried this though. It has suction cups on the bottom so no sliding around while they eat and no flinging food around the room. Its so easy to clean!!! Always monitor your dog for safety. My dog is a very destructive chewer and I was concerned he may try to rip this apart. He has never tried to chew on any of this. He seems to know that yummy food comes with it so its sacred to him. But we still remove it as soon as he has licked it clean. Tip when filling it is to set it on a kitchen towel, paper plate or paper towel. Do not set it on a hard surface like the kitchen counter or the suction cups will stick and you will be left trying to pull a floppy silicone mat full of food off the counter. Not fun when the suction cups release ha ha!
