For maximum enrichment, freeze the mat with spreads for a longer-lasting activity that's perfect for hot days, crate training, or keeping dogs occupied during alone time.

Fast eaters – Slows consumption and prevents bloat
Crate training – Positive association with kennels and alone time
Separation anxiety – Calming distraction when you leave
Bored dogs – Engaging puzzle activity that reduces destructive behavior

Senior dogs – Low-impact mental stimulation
Grooming and vet visits – Provides positive distraction
Puzzle enthusiasts – Fun jigsaw theme for puzzle-loving families
Why the Jigsaw Design Works
The jigsaw puzzle pattern isn't just visually appealing – it's functionally superior for enrichment. The interlocking puzzle pieces create varied depths, angles, and textures that challenge dogs to lick more thoroughly and thoughtfully. Unlike simple patterns, the jigsaw design offers multiple difficulty levels within a single mat, keeping dogs engaged longer and providing more comprehensive mental stimulation. The puzzle piece shapes naturally hold spreads in different ways, creating a more complex and rewarding licking experience.
Intricate Texture Design
The jigsaw pattern features deep grooves between puzzle pieces, raised edges, and varied surface textures that create a multi-dimensional licking challenge. Dogs must work to reach treats in the crevices, promoting thorough licking and extended engagement. The design is deep enough to hold generous amounts of spreads but gentle enough for sensitive tongues and safe for all breeds.
Puzzle-Themed Enrichment
For families who love puzzles, the Jigsaw eMat brings that same problem-solving satisfaction to your dog's enrichment routine. The playful puzzle piece design adds personality to your home while providing serious mental stimulation benefits. It's a conversation starter that also happens to be one of the most effective calming tools you can offer your dog.

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

Perfect
These are great entertainment for dogs and they're dishwasher safe!
Yippee! So glad to hear the toys are working for you!
Our 2 dogs love these honeypots so much more than kongs! They get discouraged by kongs and leave a good amount of food/treat behind but never with these honeypots! They ALWAYS lick them clean so I feel comfortable putting their meals in them and freezing them. I keep hearing that there is a risk for the dog’s tongue to get stuck inside by suction but the opening is pretty large so it seems unlikely to me. Regardless, I don’t let my dogs have them unless I am there to supervise.
Another great find! I was curious if this would be too deep for my 30lb dog, I shouldn't have given a thought - it's perfect! Glad to have new Soda Pup feeders in rotation!
My pups and I love Soda Pup! The products are thoughtfully designed, produced, and loved by my dogs! I appreciate the sustainable efforts, ability to buy seconds, and quick shipping! We have slow feeders, like mats, honey pots, glitter balls, and more!
Great value & highly recommend! Great product for my Aussie puppy who loves to chew and chase. 3 in a pack is great. I added a thin rope to 2 to make tug toys. Bonus! No squeak and a sustainable option!
Love this pastel color and beautiful design. Purchased as a gift and have heard that it keeps the giftee occupied for a LONG time!
Hi there! We're so glad you love the color and design. It's wonderful to hear that the gift is keeping your furry friend entertained for a long time. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Hi Julie, we're thrilled to hear your dogs love the Honey Pot! Thanks for sharing your experience and for being a responsible pet parent. We appreciate your support!
And you are right! This product does not need a vent hole because the opening is so wide that a dog's tongue cannot create suction in the toy.
I got this suction cup lick mat holder to pair with the bones eMat and it works great. He tends to slide the mat around while licking, so this holder has been really helpful. The suction cups are strong and actually stay put. Plus, it's super easy to clean. Defientily worth it if your dog moves their lick mats all over the place.

We have a boarding facility in Oregon where we also bring in foster dogs. These treat dispensers are perfect for dogs as well as for our workers. They freeze great, for the dogs that enjoy this type of thing it is easy to actually get in and eat their whole dinner. And EASY TO KEEP CLEAN. when you are dealing with a lot of dogs that last one is probably the most important. WE LOVE THESE

Cute and functional!
We got a new puppy and needed some things to work on training with her. This bundle has been awesome. She loves the bear and the treats that come from it. The slow feeder has helped slow her down so no more getting sick. And the lick stick one has helped motivate her to walk a little further and also working on learning heel. The lick mat had been a great way for me to enjoy morning coffee while pup gets a treat as well. I picked this bundle cause I named my pup Honey and all the honey theme things seamed to perfect not to try.
