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 Heart Love eMat celebrates the unconditional love between you and your dog with a charming heart-covered surface that doubles as an effective enrichment tool. The heart-pattern texture holds spreads and wet food beautifully, encouraging the slow, sustained licking that produces the endorphin response dogs need for calm behavior. Available in large and small sizes in red, the Love eMat is a popular enrichment gift for new dog owners and a meaningful everyday enrichment tool. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
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.
Fun lick mat that my dogs love and is easily washed in dishwasher and stores easily flat or on edge. Light weight, travels easily. Highly recommend.

Meh
My dogs love lickmats both of mine are medium sized (30lbs) but have difficulty getting the stuff out of the small gaps like to the point of giving up and they're the type to not leave anything.
Hi Megan, Thank you for your review. Yes, this design, in the small size, is particularly challenging.

Our dogs love them. I wish I would have ordered the smaller size though.

Amazing price for quality products
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💜🐾
My almost 1.5 year old Blue Heeler, 9 year old German Shepherd, and 2ish year old Border Collie mix all love this thing! Especially when I stuff treats in it (dogs are separated for this of course 👍) They love using this as a throwing toy too and the rubber material is soft enough I feel comfortable throwing it inside the house.
This was a nice assortment of treat toys for my 3 dogs. It took them a minute to figure them out, but they really seem to enjoy getting some of their kibble that way. Its super hot outside right now and I am keeping them in. These activities help wear out their brains a bit.
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.
SodaPup offers wonderful, high-quality enrichment toys and creative feeding solutions that make mealtime more engaging and enjoyable. Their customer service is excellent, delivery is fast, and every order is packaged with care. I highly recommend SodaPup!
I was a little suspicious of this goldfish lick mat at first, but now I love it at the enrichment and thoroughly enjoy every meal! It's cute and fun. I just received my second one! Highly recommended by Berkeley. 🐾
It’s made of a durable material that does well in the dishwasher. Our dog seems to like it & she seems to be eating a little more slowly. I’ll know more as time goes by.
I love these! I got the yellow, blue and rose red. I'll count back for the green one and if they add a purple one, I'll take one of those too.
I have an 8 month old amstaff and depending on what i put in it, it takes her from 20 minutes for bone broth based, up to 45 minutes for pumpkin with oatmeal and a few liver bites.
P.S. I don't use a dishwasher so I don't know if they are safe for that but they wash up super quick and easy in the sink.
I was very pleasantly surprised at how heavy, solid and sturdy these are. I'll be back for more!!

Strong suction & perfect for older dogs
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.
