FAQs

What makes this the best dog lick mat?

This Authentic LickiMat features specially designed textured grooves that encourage slow licking, which naturally releases calming endorphins in your dog. Unlike basic mats, this licking mat maximizes mental stimulation and delivers a calming effect that helps anxious dogs relax. Plus, the food-safe rubber is freezer safe and microwave friendly, making it perfect for creative enrichment ideas. Pair it with our all-natural Buddy Budder peanut butter for the ultimate dog enrichment experience.

What can I put on a dog lick mat?

The options are endless! This enrichment toy works great with peanut butter (we recommend Buddy Budder made with whole, natural ingredients), wet food, chicken broth, plain yogurt, mashed banana, pumpkin puree, or any dog-safe lickable treat. You can also use it as a creative way to serve a dog food topper or hide supplements and medications. The textured grooves make every ingredient last longer for extended mental enrichment.

How does a lick mat provide mental stimulation for dogs?

The textured grooves require your pup to work for every lick, engaging their brain and extending treat time from seconds to minutes. This slow licking action promotes mental enrichment similar to other enrichment toys — helping redirect anxious energy into a calming, focused activity. Pet parents love it because a mentally stimulated dog is a happy, well-behaved dog. It's one of the best benefits of lick mats for your dog's enrichment routine.

Will this lick mat help my anxious dog during bath time or vet visits?

Absolutely! The licking mat is one of the best tools dog owners have for managing an anxious dog during stressful situations. Spread some peanut butter on the mat before bath time, nail clippings, grooming, or vet visits to create a positive distraction. The calming effect from slow licking helps your pet associate these experiences with something enjoyable rather than stressful. Many pet parents call it a game-changer for anxiety.

How do I clean and store this dog enrichment toy?

Simply hand-wash your dog lick mat with warm, soapy water after each use, those grooves rinse out easily. The rubber mat is also freezer safe (perfect for making frozen lickable treats) and microwave friendly (great for warming up chicken broth spreads). Store it flat or hang to dry. The durable rubber material holds up to regular use, making it a long-lasting addition to your pet supplies.

Can I use this lick mat to give my dog pills or supplements?

Yes! Pet parents everywhere say it's a lifesaver! Spread a layer of Buddy Budder across the mat, press pills or supplements into the grooves, then cover with another thin layer. Your pup will be so focused on the lickable treat that medication time becomes stress-free. Our creamy Buddy Budder is specifically designed to hide pills easily, transforming a daily chore into a tail-wagging enrichment session.
