The SodaPup Jigsaw Puzzle eMat is one of the best lick mats for mental stimulation and anxiety relief — a USA-made, FDA-compliant TPE lick mat that turns treat time into a puzzle-solving enrichment session. Recommended by dog trainers and veterinarians for separation anxiety, boredom relief, and slowing fast eaters.

Why lick mats work for dogs:
Sustained licking triggers the release of endorphins and serotonin, producing a natural calming effect. Lick mats are used by veterinarians and certified dog trainers to reduce separation anxiety, ease grooming stress, slow fast eaters, and provide mental enrichment for high-energy dogs.
The SodaPup Jigsaw eMat brings puzzle-solving fun to your dog's enrichment routine. Its interlocking jigsaw-piece pattern creates grooves and ridges that hold spreads, wet food, and treats in place — extending licking time and maximizing mental engagement. The playful design celebrates the timeless joy of puzzle solving while delivering real behavioral benefits. Available in blue, pink, and green, the Jigsaw eMat fits seamlessly into any enrichment routine, whether used solo, frozen for extended engagement, or as part of a two-mat variety bundle. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe, freezer safe, and built to last.
Not sure which lick mat is right for your dog? Our complete Lick Mat Buyer's Guide covers how to choose the right size, texture, and filling for your dog's breed, size, and enrichment goals.
We’ve had a few lick mats now and this one is standing the test of time. Even with multiple uses it can handle the little nibbles of the dogs trying to get in the grooves

Love these!
My dogs love these mats! They get one every night and I always rotate what goes on them from puréed fruit and veggies to yogurt, freeze dry raw food, sardines, ect!
Hi Noelle - We're so happy your dogs love the lick mats!

Great product
Bought 4 different lick mats and am very happy with all of them. They are solid and well made.
Thanks for your review Kayla. When we designed these enrichment mats we intentionally made them sturdier than other products on the market which were flimsy and easily destroyed.

Very sturdy
I really like this lick mat. It's very good quality, and very sturdy. Depending on what it is, it's also very easily cleanable. So far I have used baby food, and that washes right off. Peanut butter, however, is a lot harder to clean off, so I will probably not use that anymore. My dogs seems to like it, so I am happy.
Hi Karen,
We're so glad you like the lick mat!
Thx

I was a little skeptical since we haven’t tried these lick mats but heard a lot about them. Well! The Dobermans absolutely love them! The continuous licking action on these mats definitely helps to stimulate and tire their brains. Happy pups happy mom. The suction cups on the bottom of the mat definitely helps.
My dog has megasophagus and needs to eat her food slowly instead of gulping. Soda Pup provides bowls made in the U.S. with quality slow feeding bowls so I can feed her without worry. Thank you so much for providing a product that’s safe for my dog.
Amazing mixture of enrichment products and also great quality. Will definitely be purchasing another 20-pack for our kennel enrichment program or splitting them amongst friends!
The slower feeder bowl I purchased from Sodapup works really well and great fit for my Irish wolfhound puppy!!!! The bowl was discounted due to cosmetic issues but I cannot see a thing wrong with them! I bought 2!!!
From my perspective it was well made, heavy duty, easy to fill and clean.
From my dog's perspective he loved it. I made one and after he tried it he kept staring at the empty ones on the counter.
Super helpful for my dog’s physical therapy! He does water treadmill and acupuncture. The lick stick helps the topping last, and keeps him focused and calm. I like that I ended up using less product as the textured surface keeps the licks lasting.
My 9yo male Doberman loves this ball! He chomps on it and tosses it everywhere. The squeak does in fact give out, but it lasts way longer than anything else that has ever squeaked.
I got this for my lick mat loving dog and she’s LOVING it all but especially the lick mat. It takes her a solid 30+ mins to finish when her other lick mats are maybe 5 mins activities. All products feel very well made and you can’t beat the price!
These helped tremendously during the fireworks barrage 4th of July weekend. We used non fat plain yogurt and froze them to create calming treat to help lessen our puppies anxiety.
Great lick mat!! High quality and love the design. It's a moderate level difficulty which is perfect for my guy. Makes him work hard but also has some easier spots for enticement!! I love that it doesn't have suction cups on the bottom too. Plus....veteran owned and American made!!! Can't beat that💜🐾

This Was great for keeping my pups cool on hot summer days.
This was great for melon mg my pups cool on hot sun her days. I blended some organic berries, a little plain organic yogurt, a drop of local honey and some filtered water, filled the pots up and froze them. It took them a good amount of time to lick their frozen pup pots. And it kept my pups nice and cool.
