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 Whale eMat brings ocean-inspired enrichment to your dog's daily routine. Its whale-themed surface pattern holds treats securely while the heavy-duty suction cups stick to virtually any smooth surface — bathtubs, tile walls, glass doors, kennels — for hands-free enrichment during baths, grooming, and vet visits. The whale design makes bath time visually fun for pet parents while its functional texture keeps dogs engaged for minutes at a stretch. Available in blue. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
