LICKIMATBuddy Large - Green or Orange

My labernese loves it. She works very hard to get every single possible piece of food left in it. When she is too tired, she works at it for a while, rests a bit and goes back for a few more licks. She keeps repeating this routine over and over. It works very well to keep your dog busy when you are having a meal and do not want a dog begging everybody around the table.

This is a great product and has paws up from my gsd. I initially used the peamutt butter but he doesn’t like it so now I have used cheese spread, pate and plain yogurt in 3 strips on the mat. You don’t need much on there to keep you dog amused for quite some time and freezing the mat makes it last longer. My dog is on crate rest following an injury and therefore I wish I had ordered a couple of smaller mats as this one does take up more space on the floor of the crate but we will still use it and I’m sure he will have it even once he is healed. I may buy a couple of smaller ones in addition and obviously they are perfect for smaller dogs!

long-lasting treat dispenser. My dogs love this because they get all manner of human and dog food alike and they never know what will be coming next. It takes them ages to clean off all the food and they are exhausted from the effort. Peace and quiet for a good half hour. Mine are power chewers though so I have to be ready to take away the mats as soon as they are done otherwise they start chewing them. Most difficult to clean of all the enrichment feeders I have because of the design but I put into soak straightaway and clean with a brush. I use for mashed banana or potato, cream cheese, quark is cheap as a plain accompaniment to something like banana, paste from a jar, peanut butter, tinned dog food or from a sachet. I don't necessarily use the whole surface. It holds quite a lot!

These are just brilliant. Keeps dogs busy for ages, this is the best pattern, I see they do it in a smaller size too.I've bought a few variants. One has a stronger back and can go in the top shelf of you dishwasher. These can't and will warp. What I'm a bit frustrated with is that I've had two of these that have warped on one edge/side I don't know why, I've not put them in the dishwasher. They're still useable but it's annoying and you can't really put food in the warped part. I don't know whether to return this again or not. That said I highly recommend them, but for dogs you know won't chew them, otherwise use only when you can watch them.

I have 2 large & 3 small versions. They are great for spreading their raw food on as it slows them down. I also spread a mixture of meat, fruit & veg on them and pop them in the freezer, great for hot days.They are quite flexible and NOT chew proof, one of my dogs chewed the corner off on one of the large lick mats. He also likes to carry it with him just on case he missed a bit!If the mat is noticed clean I find is easier to let the food dry then shake the bits put rather than trying to scrub the left over out.
