What makes our snuffle mat different?

Our snuffle mat hides the food

A snuffle mat works best when dogs have to sniff and search. When food stays hidden, they stay engaged, focused, and calm. If the food is visible, the enrichment benefit is lost.

We use quality material

Our polar fleece stays soft and gentle on your dog’s nose while remaining sturdy for daily use. It is comfortable for sensitive dogs and durable enough for enthusiastic sniffers.

Size that meets the enrichment needs

The large edge-to-edge sniffing area gives dogs plenty of room to explore. It satisfies the enrichment needs of large breeds, high energy dogs, and anyone who enjoys a longer session.

Easy to use and clean

It takes only moments to prepare for busy dog parents and it is fully machine washable. It keeps your dog happily engaged while saving time for you.

Crafted with science and trainer insight

I created this snuffle mat to help modern dogs slow down, engage, and relax.

Many snuffle mats leave food exposed or do not provide enough sniffing enrichment for dogs. Ours is designed to hide food effectively, encourage real searching, and help dogs settle through focused sniffing.
