The SodaPup Tree of Life eMat is one of the best suction cup lick mats for bath time enrichment and grooming desensitization — a USA-made, FDA-compliant TPE lick mat with an intricate tree-of-life design and powerful suction cups that secure it to any smooth surface during baths, grooming, and crate time.

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 Tree of Life eMat combines ancient symbolism with modern enrichment science. Its intricate branching tree pattern creates deep grooves that hold spreads and wet food for extended licking sessions — ideal for challenging experienced lick mat users who need a higher-difficulty option. The suction cup base locks onto any smooth surface: tub walls, glass, tile, or crate panels. Available in green. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
Not sure which eMat is right for your dog? Our complete Lick Mat Buyer's Guide covers how to choose the right size, texture, and features — including suction cups vs. flat mats — for your dog's specific needs.
I think the quality of the soda pup toys have gotten better over the years. I really like these flower pots and they are an excellent alternative to the westpaws fillable "cups"
I wasn't sure if my dogs would actually chew on this toy, but they do! They'll switch between this flat-shaped toy and their bones. It's very cute and has held up well, although my dogs are not super chewers so take that with a grain of salt.
I was a little skeptical since we haven’t tried these lick mats but heard a lot about them. Well! The Dobermans absolutely love them! The continuous licking action on these mats definitely helps to stimulate and tire their brains. Happy pups happy mom. The suction cups on the bottom of the mat definitely helps.
My dog has megasophagus and needs to eat her food slowly instead of gulping. Soda Pup provides bowls made in the U.S. with quality slow feeding bowls so I can feed her without worry. Thank you so much for providing a product that’s safe for my dog.
Amazing mixture of enrichment products and also great quality. Will definitely be purchasing another 20-pack for our kennel enrichment program or splitting them amongst friends!
The slower feeder bowl I purchased from Sodapup works really well and great fit for my Irish wolfhound puppy!!!! The bowl was discounted due to cosmetic issues but I cannot see a thing wrong with them! I bought 2!!!
From my perspective it was well made, heavy duty, easy to fill and clean.
From my dog's perspective he loved it. I made one and after he tried it he kept staring at the empty ones on the counter.
Super helpful for my dog’s physical therapy! He does water treadmill and acupuncture. The lick stick helps the topping last, and keeps him focused and calm. I like that I ended up using less product as the textured surface keeps the licks lasting.
My 9yo male Doberman loves this ball! He chomps on it and tosses it everywhere. The squeak does in fact give out, but it lasts way longer than anything else that has ever squeaked.
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!

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.
