TOTARK Dog Digging Toys, Large Snuffle Mat for Dogs Encourages Natural Foraging Skills, Interactive Feed Dog Puzzle Game Sniff Mat for Stress Relief and Boredom

Our old girl Tessa Blue (we miss you girl) loved this treat toy before she passed. She had bad arthritis and cancer but she still would get excited when we'd pull this out. She was able to sit next to it and scruff through it searching for the treats! Definitely not resilient enough for an 80lb lab she was able to tear some of the flaps and little pockets off easily, but otherwise a very great treat toy! It's perfect for tiny dogs smaller than 10lbs as we had family in town who brought their little Poodle mix who spent at least 30 minutes going through the treat levels.

My dog Harry loves his new food/treat forager. Keeps him engaged for a while. Good quality, lots of hiding spaces, easy to use.

First: I agree with the reviews about having no suction cups or rubber on the bottom of the mat. I did find though that putting it on a rug, the Velcro used to hold it closed sticks to the rug pretty firmly. That has kept my 60 lb pit bull mix dog from moving it around or shaking it. The Velcro was not intended for this, but it helps.Second: Watch the video. I’ve had this mat for a few weeks and until I watched the video (today) I had no idea there were places other than the snuffle mat part to hide treats.Third: My dog will eat her food out of this first, even if we have also put some in her bowl. I think she likes the challenge. It slows down her eating, so it is doing what we bought it for.I haven’t washed this yet, so I can’t speak to how durable it is in the wash. (I just looked to see if it can be washed. Probably should have done that earlier.) It has been really durable so far, so I’m hoping it is as durable in the wash.Overall I think this has been a good purchase. If it falls apart in the wash, I’ll revise this review.

Great enrichment toy for my pup, you can hide multiple treats and put them in the layers so they would have to sniff through flaps and/or dig the flaps up. It moves a round a bit so I just place it on a rug and you want to use freeze dried treats so it doesn’t get dirty because it does not seem easy to clean. My pup gets excited when he sees this, keeps him occupied for sure and worth the money !

Lots of places to hide treats or food. However the felt pockets are easily ripped in the “hunting” process

Many snuffle mats require a lot of manual loading, but this one is easier. My dog likes it, and she takes a long time to get through it.

The picture made it seem like the base was stiff, but it is just made out of a fabric similar to a tent. Not a toy I'd plan on leaving on the floor when not being supervised, so not a dealbreaker. Just don't go into it thinking its a hard base like I did.the flaps are also very flimsy, so we didn't end up using those the firs time around (too excited) but the felt in the actual snuffle mat part is very good quality! She had so much fun sniffing around (she got her dinner in it) and then promptly fell asleep using it as a pillow.For the price, I'm quite pleased, and she's got another puzzle to play with.

TL;DR: This works great...until it inevitably goes MOLDY because there's no way to clean it. Unless you're rich enough to buy a new one every 3-4 uses or want your pupper to be ingesting mold with every snuffle session, DO NOT BUY.Longer version:Bought this for our pit-lab mix who enjoys sniffing and snuffling around. She loved it! We put dry treats in it occasionally, and fed her a couple meals of her dry kibble in it (like the world's largest puzzle bowl!).However, after the 3rd or 4th use we noticed she wasn't going after it as eagerly, and would leave a lot of treats/kibble left over in the mat. When my husband went to inspect it, he saw that there were patches of black and white mold at the base of many of the felt pieces!We were shocked because we've only ever fed her dry items in the mat, and she's not a big slobberer. Of course I immediately took it to the washing machine to clean it with warm-to-hot water, and then we air-dried it. This did NOTHING except disintegrate some of the plasticky coating on the backside of three "folding leaf" pieces.I also tried hand-scrubbing it in the tub, to no avail. Of course we don't want our dog to be ingesting mold ever, let alone on a routine basis!! So into the garbage it went, a total waste of money. I love the idea of snuffle mats, but I wouldn't recommend this one to anyone since there's no way to clean it.
