ALOYA Snuffle Mat vs Starmark Treat Dispensing Bob-a-Lot Dog Toy (Large)
ALOYA Snuffle Mat
by ALOYA
A felt-and-fleece snuffle mat with an outer drawstring that allows it to lie flat, form a semi-bowl, or gather into a compact bundle for storage or transport. Its grass-like flap zones and non-slip bottom provide a simple but effective nose-work experience, especially for beginners. It is machine washable and is often chosen as an affordable, travel-friendly enrichment mat for small to medium dogs.
Starmark Treat Dispensing Bob-a-Lot Dog Toy (Large)
by Starmark
This wobbling dual-chamber treat dispenser uses a weighted anti-slip base so it bobs and tips as dogs nose or paw at it. Adjustable openings on the top and bottom let owners control how quickly kibble or treats are released, making it useful for both play and meal dispensing.
