The Paw 5 Sensory Snuffle Mat is, in simple terms, a puzzle rug for dogs: a mammoth mat made of soft fabric strips into which small rewards can be hidden. Once finished with it, the job of the dog becomes sniffing, prodding, and digging through the messy mat to get to the food. On their nose!
You spread the good treats into the coarse-fiber mattress and let your dog find them. They will nosily sniff around to search for it and use their paws to get through. The harder it is to find something, the longer the game lasts. Think-and like it is searching for candy in a pile of blankets, concentrate.
First, dogs are kept busy and quiet, most often bored furiously. Ten minutes of exercise exhausts them more than a walk. The fast eaters are slowed by making them “Earn” their bites instead of gulping them down, and this is healthier; cooking supper or picking up the phone has a new form because your dog can now do all that calmly.
So the next time your dog is bouncing off the walls, toss him a handful of kibble into a snuffle mat. That makes it all mealtime, and everyone gets a break. Who knew a fuzzy rug could be so brilliant?
