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 Fishy eMat brings playful ocean vibes to your dog's or cat's enrichment routine in a compact, small-pet-friendly size. The fish motif surface holds wet food, yogurt, and purees well — making it an excellent lick mat for cats who enjoy salmon paste or tuna, and equally suitable for small dogs and puppies building their enrichment habits. Available in plum. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
