Why Non-Toxic Enrichment Matters
Dogs explore and engage through their mouths, making the materials used in feeding and enrichment tools incredibly important. Many traditional slow feeders and chew toys are manufactured with plastics that degrade over time, release residues, or trap toxins that dogs ingest during play. Choosing food-grade silicone helps reduce cumulative chemical exposure and supports safer, everyday use.
Food-grade silicone holds up to frequent licking, washing, and freezing without breaking down. It’s flexible, durable, and odor resistant, making it a thoughtful choice for pet parents who value both safety and practicality.
Why Licking Supports Healthy Digestion & Behavior
Licking isn’t just a cute habit—it’s a behavior deeply rooted in a dog’s instinctual foraging pattern. Slow, repetitive tongue movement naturally releases feel-good neurotransmitters that help calm your dog’s nervous system. This can be especially helpful during mealtime, crate time, grooming, or moments of stress.
The textured Sardina design encourages your dog to work for every bit of food spread into the grooves and ridges. Because the food is harder to grab in one bite, dogs eat more slowly, gulp less air, and support better digestive comfort. Slower intake and sustained attention help reduce bloating, gas, and digestive irritation that can come from fast eating.
How It Works
The Sardina Slow Feeder Lick Mat features raised nubs, channels, and textured areas that hold soft foods in place and make mealtime feel like a fun challenge. Spread your dog’s favorite wet or soft food across the surface, then watch as they gently and patiently work through the grooves. It’s perfect for:
• Yogurt, pumpkin, or mashed foods
• Dehydrated or rehydrated meals
• Bone broth, purees, or toppers
• Peanut butter or canned food (just be mindful of xylitol-free options)
• Frozen treats for extra soothing enrichment
Freezing the mat transforms it into a longer-lasting treat for warm days or anxious moments.
