Das 2. Mal habe ich diesen Schnüffelteppich gekauft; wirklich super. Aufgrund einer Erkrankung kann nur feuchtes Futter versteckt werden, was ein ständiges Waschen erforderlich macht.Aber der Schnüffelteppich ist sehr lange schön geblieben und der Hund hat viel Freude damit. Wir sagen: Daumen und Pfoten hoch

He goes crazy for this mat! It is use to easy to use, put some small training treats in there and watch your dog go crazy! Even when the treats are all gone he keeps on going, this mat keeps him entertained for a couple of minutes… he licks it so much so he doesn’t miss a single crumb! It only takes a few minutes like maybe 3-5 minutes for it to dry, so pretty it dries quickly. So I’m not rolling it back up wet, he quality is good it feels nice and soft so it won’t be scratchy and hurt the dogs nose! I love the color that’s why I picked it

Our dog absolutely loves this! I was worried he'd end up ripping it but it's holding up great. Keeps him occupied for longer than anything else. Best purchase we made when he was a puppy

There are cheaper products available but this one works well for my reactive dog. Dry kibble is easily hidden in a variety of places on the mat which requires him to concentrate resulting in calmer frame of mind. I have also used it for our elderly second dog to stimulate her cognitively.

We have a 5-month-old cattle dog / collie puppy. She is very active, very smart, and loves to be kept busy. She has chewed her way through more than a few toys, so I was a bit hesitant to get this, for fear that she would chew all the fabric pieces and destroy the snuffle mat. But it has been one of our best purchases for her, hands down.When we first introduced the snuffle mat, a family member kept the puppy busy while I loaded it with food, and then we let her at it. She quickly figured out what to do and LOVED it.We load the mat with regular food, and it will fit almost a full meal for her. The "cups" are usually the area she goes to first, because it is very easy, even if I smush the fabric to cover the food. The "grassy" area is also pretty easy for her to find food, and it is easy for her to grab the food and leave the fabric pieces alone. The "booklet" flaps took her a few tries to master, but she is now able to easily nose through and get food. The "pockets" and the "flowers" are the sections she goes to last, only when the other food is gone.Only one time has she chewed a fabric piece on the mat. I got distracted, and she got frustrated on one of the flowers and started to chew the fabric. As soon as I noticed, I removed the mat, and she has not done it since. She has also on one or two occasions decided it was easier to just pick the mat up and shake it so the food would all fly out. When she did this we removed the mat, and she has not done it again.We've had the mat for over a month now, and we actually leave it on the floor most of the day, and load it with food at mealtimes. If she is hungry, she will go over and start nosing for food, but otherwise she leaves it alone. She also has a nice food bowl, but most of the time she would rather eat her food from the snuffle mat.For the price, I think this is a must-have, especially for working-breed dogs who enjoy a challenge. You'll need to watch closely at first, make sure that the mat is loaded with food before they have access, and then remove the mat if they start to chew or shake it. But once they understand the concept, they will love it.I have not tried other brands of mats, but this one was recommended on several pet sites, and I've been very happy with it. The fabric is thick and relatively durable (for fabric, anyway). There is a non-skid coating on the bottom (we use it on a rug so I don't know how well it works on hard floors), and there is a nice fabric tie to keep it tidy when rolled up. It also has a variety of puzzles in a range of difficulty levels.I would definitely recommend snuffle mats in general and this one specifically to pet owners.

Loved this snuffle mat, not as large as I thought and the rubber coating only does so much sticking but my 15year old lab is like a pup when we bring this out. It completely reactivates that foraging instinct and she usually takes it outside afterwards and sniffs everything out there too. Comes back to it all day, even snoozes on it. Well worth it, has relieved a little of her anxiety. One of her favorite things! If you're on the fence, get one, even if it's not this one. They are brilliant!

I'm sorry to give this mat 5 stars. If I could, I'd rate it higher. For most of his year of life, our puppy has persistently begged at the table, stared at our plates if he can get high enough and generally not understanding that, although he's part of our family, he eats separately. He gets his supper at the same time as we eat but our plates are so much more interesting. It isn't as if he isn't trained. He's been through all the obedience classes available to him and will soon take his AKC good canine citizen test. Done well at them.He's a bright little malshi - maltese/shitzhu one year old, about 11 lbs. He gets his snuffle mat once a day, at dinner. I lay it out with kibble and treats in it as we sit down to eat. From the first time, he works at it for at least 20 minutes, wanders a little and then goes back at it again. When we're through eating, the snuffle mat gets emptied, rolled up and put away. Since he got it, he hasn't bothered us at mealtime at all. But it also is something he finds very interesting. Because it isn't out all the time, when he gets it, it's a treat. He gets very excited about it. I don't put a treat or kibble in every slot so he has to check them all. He used to nibble at his food dish, but this, this he loves. I took it to his last puppy class for 'show and tell.' His classmate's family is getting one and the trainer, although she knew about them, had never seen one. He is as motivated to hunt through his snuffle mat as he is excited to learn in class (which is VERY). Can't recommend this one highly enough. We haven't had it long enough to run it through the washer but it's well made and should hold up well. Our little guy is a chewer and is not kind to his toys but isn't doing that with his mat at all - it's too special, we think. Excellent choice.
