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 Lighthouse eMat transforms treat time into a calming, engaging enrichment experience with its detailed nautical design and industrial-strength suction cups. Mount it on any smooth surface — tile, glass, tub walls, or shower doors — for a reliable, hands-free enrichment station during baths and grooming. The lighthouse and sea scene creates excellent texture pockets for peanut butter and spreads. Available in dark blue. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
