Pet Snuffle Mat for Dogs Sniff Mat Nosework Feeding Mat Slow Feeder Interactive Dog Puzzle Toys for Training and Stress Relief Encourages Natural Foraging Skills (31''x19'')

Lots of pockets in which to hide food. Our 6 year old Boykin gets excited when she sees me fill it! She has decided the little carrots are best when carried around in her mouth even when there are no treats left in it. One of the best mental stimulation toys I've gotten for her, and instead of lasting 5 minutes, she's occupied for over 15-20!Loved that there was no strong odor like other brands have had (and why I returned or disposed of them quickly)!

Do you have a dog who is tireless? Never stops moving? Is too smart for his or her own good? Is anxious during a storm? THIS IS THE PRODUCT FOR YOUR DOG.I have an Irish Setter and a Schnoodle. One is relentlessly energetic and the other is a sneaky genius. Both dogs LOVE this mat.It takes my two boys 10-15 minutes to snuffle through the whole mat. We've used it 4-5 times now and while they are better at finding the treats, they aren't much better at retrieving them. The pockets and planter still challenge them.Just a hint - the first time you use it, keep the treats easy to find. My dogs were a little frustrated because I went all in and they were struggling to find the more hidden treats. It'll also help keep the mat interesting if you get progressively harder over time.If your dogs are food agressive, buy another mat. They will be in close quarters with their faces a few inches apart.It doesn't stick to the floor at all. I sit with the dogs and hold the mat down as they snuffle so they don't pick the mat up and shake the treats out. Sneaky genius tried that trick.I have machine washed it three times now and it has survived the washer and dryer in perfect condition. I wash it in cold water with regular detergent.It really does tire them out. I didn't think it was possible to tire an Irish Setter but this mat has proved me wrong. My two will sleep for awhile after they've snuffled. If you're stuck inside on a rainy day, this is a perfect activity for them.My Schnoodle is very, very anxious in thunderstorms. When we get a big, bad storm, I load up this mat. He is so distracted by it that he forgets he's anxious and by the time he's finished, the storm has passed. He's also not a big eater but will forage until his heart's content with this mat. I like it because I know he's at least eaten something.So buy it. It's worth the price. Honestly, it's kinda priceless because it makes my boys happy and that makes me happy.

If you have a snuffle dog you NEED this! My bulldogge is a chewer which has forced me to get a playpen for parts of the day. I was looking for something new that would be interesting to him inside the playpen. HE LOVES THIS! The textures keep him interested and I hide the carrots and sometimes a little treat in it when I leave and he runs to get in his playpen. He has even tried to take it out, but we leave it for a special playpen toy- and it works. He has destroyed one carrot, but it has a squeaker so no surprise, it's more surprising he hasn't destroyed them all. He loves the texture, tearing at it, snuffling it and digging out his carrots. It has held up over a few weeks which is shocking. This was worth EVERY PENNY!!!

This is such a cute product. It functioned great for our two big dogs. I hid treats in it and they loved it. However, they are two bid dogs who like to chew so it did get torn apart pretty quickly. It was a nice size and easy to wash. It came with little carrots to pull out as well. A fun activity for the dogs and helped tire them out.

Good for German Shepherds and higher energy pups! I've used this three times now with about half a cup of kibble, and my 4-year-old shepherd is enjoying the hunt. He does like to pull at the fabric, like he does with his toys, but it's stayed together so far without issue. The squeaky carrots are the best part and he's even run off with them. This is a nice canine enrichment exercise to work his mind and sniffing skills. I'd say it was worth the money.

The mat was described perfectly. Measures as stated but really small when one sees it on the floor. I have two small dogs and it did. It keep them busy for long. My big dog was more interested in tearing apart the mat versus finding threat. Would be great if a bigger size was offered. Wash ability is really a plus. Have washed a couple of times and it holds up well. It’s a challenge for dogs but because the mat is small they find everything in 10 minutes or less and the more they do it the faster they get. Mat is great for use with treats but I’d not use for feeding a meal. Use a slow feed bowl if your goal is to slow a dog’s eating. I’m giving a 3 because it is average but think if it more as a toy than an opportunity for long term enrichment. Because it is so small dogs figure things out quickly and bigger dogs will pick it up and shake everything out.

My dog loves this snuffle mat. Lots of different activities for him. Great for small/ medium dogs

my dog loves it. easy to wash and dry.
