xVextronic Snuffle Mat: Natural sniffing, slow-feeding enrichment for dogs and pets
Designed to engage a dog's strongest sense—the nose—the Vextronic Snuffle Mat recreates a foraging journey that dogs instinctively crave. By tucking treats and kibble among soft fibers, the mat invites deliberate sniffing, exploration, and problem-solving. This kind of interactive play can channel curiosity into a calm, focused activity that naturally burns energy and may curb restless behaviors without ever feeling forceful.
Key features blend safety with practicality. The anti-slip bottom uses a glue-like texture to minimize shifting on hard floors, so pets can sniff and search with confidence. A side strap offers an extra layer of stability when you want to fix the mat to furniture legs, helping to prevent sliding and accidental tugging during play.
Crafted from a soft, safe polar fleece, the surface is gentle on the skin yet sturdy enough for daily use. The fabric is machine washable, making routine cleaning easy and keeping the sniffing environment hygienic for repeated sessions.
Size that fits many homes
At 25 by 25 inches, this mat is a versatile fit for dogs of many sizes. It accommodates large, medium, and small breeds, and it’s broad enough to share with curious cats or other small pets like rabbits or hamsters in supervised play.
Rich hiding spots, interactive play
Across the mat are multiple food hiding areas where you can conceal bites, treats, or small pellets. The assortment of pockets and folds invites dogs to explore different paths to each reward, boosting confidence and bonding as you watch their problem-solving unfold.
