Product Information

Does your dog become an anxious mess around strangers? Or perhaps, thunderstorms cause your pooch to shake and panic. Dogs can enjoy small, bite-sized seedless watermelon cubes as a refreshing treat. Watermelon is not only hydrating but also contains essential vitamins and minerals. The high water content in watermelon can help keep your dog hydrated. Remember to remove the seeds and rind them before serving. 17. Spinach puree I'm an experienced Animal Behaviourist, Trainer and Enrichment Expert from Ruffle Snuffle®. I'm also a published Author and award-winning business woman. I like to use bananas, cream cheese, sardines and pumpkin puree (good for digestive health). You can even use your dog’s own food to make meal times last longer. Soak kibble in gravy to make it into a paste and then spread it on. Be sure to get a high quality mat. If it is not well made, then your dog will have an easy time destroying the mat and may accidentally ingest some of the pieces.

As mentioned previously, the Neat-Lik Mat can also help your dog or cat slow down when they are eating. So, if you tend to have a speedy eater, it’s definitely worth it. Eating slower can help avoid various issues like GDV , choking, and more. Does your dog wriggle, push and escape from bathtime? Maybe your dog turns into an anxious mess every time a thunderstorm rolls in… As your dog focuses on his tasty treat, you have all the time you need to perform your doggy beauty routine.But where the Aquapaw Slow Treater really shines is in the bathroom. The three suction cups held strong no matter where we placed it – shower glass, side of the bathtub or even the tiled wall.

Mash cooked sweet potato. Mix with a couple of tablespoons of plain yogurt, a small spoonful of honey, and a tiny dash of cinnamon. Mix well and freeze.Raw egg adds variety and nutrients to the meal. Eggs are a good source of high-quality protein and contain essential fatty acids, vitamins (such as vitamin A and vitamin D), and minerals (like selenium), which contribute to healthy skin, coat, and overall well-being in dogs. You can also put canned dog food on it or non-fat yogurt,” says Robinson. “Pumpkin puree, non-fat cottage cheese, or mashed bananas also work.” Organ meats, like liver, are highly nutritious and contain vitamins (such as vitamin A, vitamin D, and vitamin B12), minerals (like iron and copper), and other beneficial compounds that support various bodily functions in dogs, including energy metabolism and immune health. 8. Peanut butter (free of xylitol) The horizontal grooves are exceptionally difficult to clean out completely. Speaking of which, because you hang this on your window, I only recommend peanut butter. Anything runnier like yogurt drips down your car door making a mess. Trust me… I learned the hard way.

Pumpkin Puree — Canned pumpkin is another doggy favorite. Make sure it’s plain pumpkin and not pie filling, which is loaded with sugar and other additives. Best Spreadable Treats for Cats Simply smear food over the mat and give it to your dog. Because of the flat design, your pooch will not be able to lift the food with his teeth. Instead, he has to use his tongue to remove every last piece of the tasty treat.If you’re after a mat which doesn’t pose a challenge as such and instead gives your dog easy access in times of fireworks or other scary moments, the Soother is ideal. Bananas — Mash up some bananas and spread them onto the mat. You can also freeze the mashed-up bananas on the mat for some healthy, pet-friendly ice cream.
