AWOOF Pet Snuffle Mat for Dogs, Interactive Feed Game for Boredom, Encourages Natural Foraging Skills for Cats Dogs Bowl Travel Use, Dog Treat Dispenser Indoor Outdoor Stress Relief

I recently got the AWOOF Pet Snuffle Mat for Dogs and it's already become a reliable tool in our daily routine for both enrichment and calming-down moments. Right out of the box it impressed: the fabric is thick and sturdy, the colors are bright, and the mat has tons of folds, pockets, and hidden sections that easily hold kibble or treats. The design encourages my dog to slow down, sniff, search — and that means less gulping, less boredom, and more mental engagement. During use, the mat has worked wonders. Instead of the usual "empty bowl, done" routine, feeding time now takes my dog a solid chunk of time and holds her interest. She gets excited, goes through the layers, noses down into the piles, and seems genuinely satisfied when she's finished. After the session, she’s calmer and less hyperactive than she used to be — which is exactly what I hoped for when I bought it. The fact that it’s machine-washable and still holds its shape after multiple washes is a huge plus. Another benefit: the mat is adaptable to different feeding or play settings. Sometimes I’ll hide a few treats and use it as a semi -training tool; other times I’ll fill it with kibble and let her munch while I prep dinner. It’s convenient, reduces food-driven anxiety, and provides a fun sensory experience. For dogs that have big ears, have finished their zoomies, or just need something meaningful in the day, this snuffle mat gives value way beyond its price. If you’re looking for something to reduce boredom, encourage natural foraging behavior, and make feed time more engaging — the AWOOF Pet Snuffle Mat is absolutely worth five stars.

First off, if i had gotten this for a dog i would have been very disappointed by the size. But then again maybe that's why it's cheaper than other similar products. The dimensions are listed I'm just very bad at estimating measurements and also imagining them. For a cat or a small dog though, it's the perfect size. I realize I'm not the target demographic here but when it comes to animal care and enrichment- if it benefits the animal, that's all that matters. Scent is very important to dogs, obviously... and it's also important to cats, which i think a lot of people forget. My cat likes to inhale her food and swallow it whole without chewing, which inevitably leads to it coming back up onto the carpet every time. So I use a rotation of puzzle feeders to slow her down and make her use her little walnut brain (as opposed to just using a slow feeder bowl). She's very smart and actively prefers her puzzles over a regular bowl (she will literally reject a bowl of food and shows preferences for a couple puzzles over others). The problem is she's gotten very good at all the puzzles to the point that even having them on a rotation to switch things up isn't enough anymore. She also unfortunately does not respond to catnip or catnip alternatives (we've tried them all just in case)- it's not super common but it is a genetic thing. As a result, she doesn't really get a lot of enrichment that utilizes scent so I thought why not see if she likes hunting down hidden food pieces. It's been a pretty big hit. It is both easier and harder than the puzzles. Easier in the sense that she can get more than 1-2 pieces of food at a time but harder bc she has to really search for them. I currently switch between this and a food dispensing ball, to balance out the challenge throughout the week. She also likes to dig a bit so being able to dig through the fabric strips is something else she enjoys. Once we've had a break from the puzzles for several months I'll start re-introducing them on rotation again and alternate between current puzzle and this mat. But the thing I like the most is I can just throw it into the wash as needed. There is no hand washing plastic nooks or worrying about food/crumbs getting stuck between pieces (some puzzles are just too weirdly shaped to fit into the dishwasher and others will not be able to be thoroughly washed by a dishwasher). She's happy. I'm happy. 5 stars.

I think it’s the best value here for snuffle mats. However, after loving the green version, I bought the yellow version to mix it up a little bit, but it was like half the quality of the green, the blades on the yellow are single ply and they’re doubled on the green, so the green is more heavy and robust if that makes any sense, so I recommend sticking with the green. It’s a shame there’s no continuity in the products and it’s always a gamble on Amazon.

I purchased the AWOOF Pet Snuffle Mat for my energetic 8-month-old puppy, and it’s been such a game changer! He loves sniffing around and searching for his treats, and it keeps him engaged way longer than a regular bowl. I honestly expected him to start tearing it up right away, but instead he stayed focused on finding the treats and was entertained much longer than I anticipated. The mat feels well-made, easy to fold up for travel, and simple to clean. What I love most is how it slows down his eating while giving him mental stimulation—perfect for a dog that needs enrichment and stress relief. Even my older dog enjoys it. Highly recommend this for anyone with a pup that gets bored easily or eats too fast!

Cute and functional for the most part! The material is not very durable. Our dogs chewed through both the bottom lining and the rope that cinches it closed within 10 minutes. We still use it as is! It definitely keeps the dogs busy for a few minutes :) They seem to really enjoy it! Not easy to clean.

My pup doesn’t play with toys, and I wanted something to keep her occupied something she’d have fun with. She’s food driven, so kibble is perfect in this for her. She enjoys the challenge and it gets a meal in, plus it’s adorable! The snuffle mat looks great and has kept wear after a week straight so far. It’s sturdy and closes very tightly.

My 7 month old Cavapoo wasn’t eating her kibble before unless I put different toppers. My friend recommended getting this and now she eats the kibble in the snuffle mat right away. I think she genuinely enjoys hunting for each kibble. And it gives me time to shower and not worry

​I really LOVE this cheap and easy way to get my dogs excited for sniffing out treats! It makes them work for their food, which is true enrichment, and honestly, my dogs went wild for it. ​I just take a handful of treats or kibble and spread it around the mat. I love hearing their little "snorts" while they work it’s fun for both of us! It takes them about 5 to 10 minutes to find everything, and now they get so excited the second they see the mat come out. ​My only concern is If you have "rough" chewers, keep an eye on them. They can get a little aggressive pulling at the felt tabs, so it might not survive a heavy chewer long term. The fabric is a thin and cheap. Basic felt fabrics. But for the price and the mental stimulation, it's a win!

When I have to leave my puppy I put her dry food in this to keep her occupied. Age enjoys the challenge and the item is well made and withstands puppy teeth and doesn’t move around at all. Highly recommend!!

Myself & my dog really like this snuffle mat. I previously ordered a smaller drawstring mat approx 16” diameter that came with a removable suction cup & a training clicker, but the suction cup didn’t help to hold it in place on my various floor surfaces & I found it harder to “ hide” kibble between the rather stiff fabric strips. I thought it would soften up with washings, but it didn’t . This larger snuffle May with such nice brightcolours works much better! At aproximately 22” in diameter, my dog (a Beagle) is standing on part of the mat, which effectively keeps it in place, while snuffling through fabric strips & collars that are much softer & easier to hide kibble & treats. Staying in place does Kee it cleaner than being shoved all over the floors & under furniture. Both my dog & my daughters smaller dog love to chew their chew sticks on their favorite snuffle mat!

Very simple easy to pack away toy I got for my 2 kittens. Hide some treats in the leaves and keeps them entertained for a good period of time and then once finished simply turn inside out and pull the toggle to pack away. Very good product.

This is a great snuffle rug. My chihuahua loves it and it keeps her occupied for ages.

Our dog, a borador loves it
