The SodaPup Flower Power eMat is one of the best lick mats for anxious dogs and puppies who need calming enrichment — a USA-made, FDA-compliant TPE lick mat with a retro floral pattern that makes every treat session a stress-relieving experience. Recommended by dog trainers and veterinarians for separation anxiety, crate training, and boredom relief.
Key specs:
Size: Large (~8"×8") and Small/Mini (~4"×4") available
Best for: Puppies (small size), cats (small size), all breeds (large size), anxious dogs, crate training
Difficulty: Easy to Medium (flower petal design with moderate texture)
Works with: Peanut butter, yogurt, wet food, raw food, pureed treats, kibble softened with broth
Dishwasher safe: Yes (top rack)
Freezer safe: Yes
Made in: USA
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 Flower Power eMat brings groovy, retro vibes to your dog's enrichment routine. Its flower-power design is more than decorative — the petal pattern creates natural ridges and pockets that hold spreads and soft foods in place for extended licking sessions. The small size is perfectly scaled for puppies, toy breeds, and cats, while the large version suits any breed. Available in pink, the Flower Power eMat is a cheerful addition to any enrichment kit. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe, freezer safe, and built to last.
The ONLY reason for 4 stars out of 5 is more an individual experience. The smaller areas are more challenging for my large/working breeds dog to access, which leaves a very small portion of filler food in the mat.
Not a huge deal; the mat is great and I continue to use it. Easy to fill/freeze and clean by hand with a brush.
I'd guess this mat design would be ideal for dogs with softer and smaller tongues and smaller teeth; maybe those of smaller and medium breed types. And for cats, cats would likely do well with the design of this mat.
I'm a huge fan of SodaPup products and company. Non-toxic, well priced, made in America, and veteran owned. Those parts definitely get 5 stars!

Best way to head off separation anxiety ever
I've heard from multiple sources that if you can keep a dog busy for 3-8 minutes after you leave, they tend not to get separation anxiety--and licking is already a self-soothing activity for dogs. Throw in a bit of peanut butter and you've got the perfect method to keep your dog happy till it's too late for them to get upset that you've gone.

So good!
Way better than the Licki Mat company! Super cute patterns and very durable.
Aw shucks! Thank you Lauren for your review. We love creating fun new patterns to keep your dogs challenged. Did you know that we also vary the degree of difficulty across our lick mat designs? Since dogs have varying food drive, we make easy mats, moderately difficult mats, and very difficult mats. You can choose the mat that most closely matches your dog's needs! We have lots of cool new designs coming soon :)

My dog really enjoyed his sodapup flowerpots, he'd have one everyday if I could keep them stocked!
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!!
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!
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.
