Pet Snuffle Feeding Mat, Dog Puzzle Toys Interactive Game for Boredom, Encourages Natural Foraging Skills for Cats Dogs Portable Travel Use, Dog Treat Dispenser Indoor Outdoor Stress Relief

My golden loves it

I wanted an interactive treat game that wouldn't be too difficult for a 15 year old dog that's basically the furball version of a crotchety old man, screaming at kids to get off his lawn while throwing his cane in their general direction. I tried the stupid wooden puzzle games with sliding compartments that come with all the fancy bells & whistles... my dog basically snorted, licked the empty compartment, and went to sleep on top of it.Stupid overpriced puzzle game: O, Dog: 1.I got this one on a whim. It arrived and I quickly broke up some greenies and hid the pieces under several "leaves" on this toy while my dog sniffed at this weird cactus poof monster that smelled like his favorite crack. BINGO, by the time I blinked, my dog was face deep in this toy making snorting noises and rifling through the green things in search of food. He totally looked like a wild wolf to me, my significant other disagreed and said he looked and sounded like a truffle pig.Not so stupid overpriced toy: 1, Dog: 1.Word to the wise, WATCH your dog while (s)he goes on (her)his "hunt" with this toy. Seriously, what kind of person just drops a toy and walks away from their dog anyway? My dog mistook the green leaves on this thing for food and tried to eat a few pieces off. If I weren't watching him, I'd be dealing with green felt poop by now but I was so I'm not. If you've got one of those dogs who will eat cement, just keep an eye on him/her/it while it forages for treats hidden in this plant monster and you'll be fine.

J’ai acheté ce jouet pour mes deux chats d’environ 1 an et demi et je vous jure qu’ils ont adopté la salade! Seul problème, c’est qu’ils sont des brise-fer et que les morceaux comment à se décoller dans l’assiette. J’ai un peu peur de le passer au lavage… pas sûr que j’achèterais ce produit pour un chien.

We have a sweet 4 lb toy Rusky and we live in a small 435 sq ft tiny modular house. As adorable as she my be, at times her bark is so shrill it could break glass. Especially while eating. No really. We know dogs bark to communicate and most of her barks are lower in pitch. But when she is bored she barks at her food with this sharp, high pitched chirp. The way our home is set up we really dont have any other place to put her food outside of in the living room which is outside the kitchen. So placing food in another location wouldn't help. We are with her nearly all the time. So, it was becoming bothersome. When I say shrill I mean once she barked so loud once my ears rang for around 45 minutes. It is litterally painful. We were getting frustrated with her and totally get she is just trying to occupy herself. We just thought we would have to find an alternative. Something to stimulate her better than the negative attention she was getting from us. We've tried spacing out feedings in hopes she would just eat her food. Not leaving food out beyond feeding times. Behaviorist type things like remove her food as soon as she starts barking then giving the bowl back after 20 minutes. Nothing worked... until now. She loves her Wood Snuffle mat and took to it immediately (I figured we would need to train her). We've had the mat two days and she just loves it and I can save my hearing haha8-26-2020 Update: she still loves her mat and I still have my hearing.

J’ai un très petit chien et ce tapis lui conviens très bien. Lorsqu’il est sale, directement dans la laveuse. J’adore.

Very pet friendly. Easy to use. With this, I can get my dog to eat her kibble, which is good for her but that she's not crazy about. My dog is 5 months old and had no difficulty figuring this out. I haven't washed it yet so I can't comment on that.
