The Snuffle Mat is a foraging feeder for dogs and is an excellent way to provide daily mental stimulation at meal times or enrichment breaks between meals, while training, travelling or at the vet.
Sprinkle dry food on to the mat and ruffle the strips to shake it in. (Dehydrated meat works well for raw feeders.) Your dog uses their nose to search through the strips and find the food. Easy environmental enrichment! Stimulate your dog’s brain, give an outlet for scent drive and encourage natural foraging. Increasing mental stimulation can improve confidence and reduce anxiety & problem behaviours!
While geared toward dogs, Snuffle Mats are also great for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds & other small animals.
Each Snuffle Mat has a durable rubber base with high-quality fleece strips woven through the holes and carefully hand-tied with a double knot. The weight of the rubber base helps to hold the shape and position of the mat as the dog uses it.
Mungo’s Snuffle Mats are available in two levels of difficulty. (See photographs below.) Level 1 is our beginner mat with shorter fleece strips to search through. Level 2 has longer strips, which creates a greater challenge for the dog.
Mungo’s Snuffle Mat Classic Level 1 Works well for beginner dogs and toy breeds, cats and other small animals. The fleece strips are short enough length to stand mostly upright, setting the pet up for success in finding food. Approximately 12”x12” rubber base with fleece strips woven and double-tied through the holes
